Practice civilized dog walking and promote scientific dog breeding. Hello everyone, I'm Brother Shaw.
Pay attention to the headline number "Xiao Ge Walking Dog", and take you to understand the canine knowledge every day.
In the last issue, we shared the origins and history of the Dutch Lion Dog (Keeshoud, and today we will talk about the German Shorthaired Pointer, which ranks 19th in IQ).
(Short-haired Boeing Dogs in the Grass)
In the 18th century, shooting birds with shotguns was popular in Europe. In order to get a good gun hound, people added the pedigree of the Lingti and the English Foxhound to the Spanish Boeing, and got the English Boeingda.
The Germans used the Spanish Boeing Dachshund, German Hound and Bloodhound Hybrid to hand over the German Boeing Dag. There are three breeds of German Boeingdas (short-haired, bristle, and long-haired), all of which have one thing in common, that is, as soon as they find their prey, they raise their tails and forelimbs and kick them, and the tip of their nose protrudes forward, indicating to the hunter the location of the prey. This is Boeingda's unchanged action since ancient times. Its reliable and keen sense of smell can accurately indicate the location of prey even at night.

By the 19th century, German Boeing Dogs were still bulky, slow and calm. But after mating these saddle-backed, rabbit-footed guys with the lighter English Boeings, they got today's lean, athletic and close-knit Breed, the German Shorthaired Pointer. German short-haired Boeingdas are becoming new favorites around hunters in Germany and Britain, while in North America they are revered by wild tracking enthusiasts.

In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, the Germans improved their body size, standing posture and nose through selective breeding, thus making the short-haired Boeingda an excellent gun hound adapted to all wild terrains.
In 1870, the German Shorthaired Pointer was first recognized in Germany.
In 1920, the American Kennel Club AKC recognized the German short-haired Boeingda as an independent breed.
From March 29 to 30, 1941, at the International Kennel Club Exhibition held in Chicago, the german shorthair Boeingda Exhibition, which was licensed by AKC, was successfully held.
The Boeing Dag has a calm temperament and a vigilant, keen sense of sensitivity, suitable for activities in the wild, and has no shyness towards people or dogs. The desire to hunt is strong, the body is strong and energetic, but it is not suitable for family breeding.
