Hi,
My Grandfather hunted but to my knowledge never owned a dog. My Dads 2 favorite dogs #1 was a mutt named Dan 1/2 Enlish Pointer and 1/2 Setter, he was a big lemon and white sweet dog that looked more like a pointer. #2 Was Hugo a beast of a GSP and expert hunter that also managed to drive and crash the family car, dive through various windows, sleep on the kitchen table but never get caught there, wait for the unsuspecting kid to open the door so he could plant his head in your chest and run you over like a linebacker, eat entire roasts when you answered the door, only listened to Dad, etc well you get the idea, good thing he could hunt or I think he would he been taken to the pound as a young dog.
As for me I have 2 GSP's thank god not related to Hugo the horrible.
