Is the German Shorthaired Pointer good with children?
Although bred for hunting and working in the outdoors, a well-bred dog can be an excellent family companion. If the puppy is properly raised to be comfortable with people and other dogs, it should do well with children. However, the German Shorthaired Pointer may not be the best choice for living in an apartment or very small home, because it needs to be outdoors and needs plenty of time in the open.
