German Longhaired Pointer
German Longhaired Pointers (60-80 pounds) are energetic, intelligent, and gentle, ideal for active families. They’re great with kids when socialized but may be too robust for toddlers. High exercise (2+ hours daily, hunting or running) is essential; their medium coat needs regular brushing.
Feed 3-4 cups daily of Purina Pro Plan Performance Sport 30/20 Formula, with 30% protein for their stamina and joint health. Control portions to stay lean. Suited for both indoor and outdoor living with space, they’re not for apartments or inactive owners.
Training curbs exuberance. Perfect for hunters or active households, GLPs thrive with field work, not for urban or low-energy lifestyles.
