German Longhaired Pointers Development to present
Introduced, to the UK, in 1993 adding pointer to the name is misleading as this implies its primary use was always as a bird dog which is incorrect, the FCI definition is Vorstehhund ( Standing dog, Spaniel type ) which define its origins more correctly. Included in this sub-group are the Kleiner and Grossen Munsterlander, the Brittany, Picardie and French Spaniels, the Stabyhoun and the Drentse Partrijshond.
The German Longhaired Pointer is without doubt the most successful new addition to the UK HPR sub group. The breeds outstanding proven ability both in the field and in the ring has been recognised by a successful application for full breed status which commenced in 2006.
The GLP is a noble dog, elegant and with a powerfull, substantial appearance. It has a very good nose and is a superb game finder and excellent swimmer.It has a craving for human companionship combined with a willingness to please.It's excellent manners could allow it to adapt quite comfortably to a family environment which it did originally as a forester's dog, provided a degree of basic training is installed.
Size Ideally 64- 66 cms for dogs and 60-63 cms for bitches.
Coat Colours are Solid Brown ( not liver), Brown with a White Chest, Brown and White and White and Brown. The Ticking gene is present in some lines and is called Schimmel, variations incude Brownschimmel, Dunkelschimmel, Hellschimmel and Forellenschimmel.
