Meet Buddy! This beautiful Labrador and German Shorthaired Pointer puppy has bright, piercing eyes and adorable, floppy ears. We believe he was born around the fourth of July, and has a fun-loving, firecracker personality to match! You’ll never have a dull moment with this guy around. He loves to run, play with toys and meet new people. He’s very playful with other animals in the home. His foster thinks he’d do well in a busy home with kids because he's pretty well mannered overall. He also does well in the crate and has had no accidents in the house. We strongly recommend that all our dogs (especially puppies like Buddy) attend obedience class to learn commands, socialize and build confidence, and strengthen that ever-important bond with their human family. It’s lots of fun, too! Ready to make a new best friend for life? Consider adopting Buddy and fill out an application today!

Breed overview
Overview:
The German Shorthaired Lab, a dynamic hybrid blending the best of the German Shorthaired Pointer and Labrador Retriever, originated from the desire to combine the two breeds' esteemed hunting abilities and friendly dispositions. Physically, these medium to large dogs typically boast a muscular, athletic build with a short, dense coat, often found in shades of black, brown, yellow, or liver, and sometimes with the GSP's characteristic ticking. Their temperament is a delightful mix of the Lab's unwavering loyalty and the GSP's keen intelligence and boundless energy. They are generally affectionate, trainable, and eager to please, making them fantastic companions for active families. Due to their high exercise requirements and need for mental stimulation, they are unsuitable for apartment living and thrive in homes with yards and access to regular outdoor activities. Health-wise, like their parent breeds, they can be prone to hip and elbow dysplasia, eye conditions, and certain heart issues, so responsible breeding and regular vet check-ups are crucial.
