I did not have any dogs growing up, but I knew that once I got one, he would have to be as handsome as he was useful. I was attracted to the deep browns, ticking patterns, and elegant composure of German Shorthaired Pointers, in the family of huntings dogs, also called gun dogs, bird/duck dogs, and field dogs. My prayers were answered in Strapping Noble, whom we nicknamed "Strap," our German Shorthaired Pointer mix. Since we're not hunters, he's turned out to be more handsome than useful, but I'm happy with that!
