re: What kind of dog do you have and do you hunt with it?

not gonna lie the fact that they are rare and beautiful always helps.
I love my pudelpointer but there was too much breeding going on and i wanted to try something different.

The breeder I got her from also breeds pudelpointers. The difference they said was larger affinity for water and better nose. I also believe they are a little slower to mature. she stuck a lot closer to me than the PP in year 1. She’ll Range now. Also Great w kids and babies.
I’m not sure of problems w the breed you’re talking about. Just do your homework and make sure you look at parents and pedigree etc..
