16 Best Halloween Costume Ideas For German Shorthaired Pointers

#7 The German Shorthaired Pointer is generally a healthy breed dog.

As with many breeds, these dogs can suffer from hereditary eye disorders and hip dysplasia (a condition that can limit mobility). Before breeding, therefore, examinations of the eyes and hips by a veterinarian are necessary. Epilepsy is also more common in this pedigree dog.
