Frequently Asked Questions
About Pointer Puppies
What's it like owning a Pointer?
Pointers were bred for hunting birds and would love nothing more than to sniff out some feathered game for you. However, they also make excellent family dogs who love their owners, even if they don’t always listen to everything you tell them to do. Full-grown, they typically weigh 45-75 pounds and stand 23-28 inches tall.
Do Pointers do well in a busy household?
Pointers are generally okay with older children who know how to handle dogs. Pointers are intense sporting dogs who need lots of room to roam. They do best in a housing situation where they have plenty of room to play outside but can come back in at the end of the day to live with their people family. They're moderate barkers — they'll alert you when something's up but aren't excessive.
What kind of exercise do Pointers need?
Pointers need an hour or two of exercise every day to stay happy. If you’re a hunter, take them to the field with you, and you’ll have a helpful best friend who will hunt with you for hours. If you’re not a hunter, you can take your pointer hiking or jogging, or get them involved in doggie sports where they can be top competitors. Overall, their exercise needs are high.
What should I expect with Pointer shedding?
A Pointer’s short, shiny coat is very easy to groom. They don’t shed much, and a weekly brushing is all they need to remove any dead hair... It doesn’t get much easier than that. Grooming-wise, this breed is low-maintenance.
Are Pointers a good fit for apartment living?
Pointers are best suited for a house with a good-sized yard. Pointers are intense sporting dogs who need lots of room to roam. They do best in a housing situation where they have plenty of room to play outside but can come back in at the end of the day to live with their people family. They are highly trainable and eager to learn.
