We are a hunting family dedicated to this rare gun dog. My
husband, Ted, has been an avid hunter for most of his life
and all of our children are following in his footsteps. Our
9 year-old, Katharina, and 6 year-old, Jacenta, help in the training of our beloved gun
dogs. The older siblings hunt with us when they visit.
The quest for a gun dog began four years ago. We began with
a different breed; and found we weren’t getting quite what
we wanted out of the hunting. Research led us to a German
Longhaired Pointer (Deutsch Langhaar). Last year we were
ecstatic to welcome Hubertus Franka to our family. Since
then, I have wanted nothing more than to help preserve this rare
versatile gun dog in the United States. We are happy to
announce two additions to our family: February 2008, Birko von Heek,
and in April 2008, Lona vom Lonsstein.
My name is Monica, I have been learning about hunting
since my husband and I have been married. It’s just recent that I
have picked up a shot gun to learn to shoot. I’ve been
learning to train gun dogs for about four years now. It
gives me great joy teaching dogs to use their genetic traits
to their utmost potential. In addition, my children learn
about the outdoors and how to care for their hunting
companions.
We frequently hunt the open fields, swamps and woods of
Northern Michigan to find Woodcock and Partridge. In our
local area we hunt in open fields to find Ringneck Pheasant,
Chukar, Canadian Geese and Mallard Ducks -- occasionally
rabbit and fox. The occasional trip to Northern Ontario
lends itself to Grouse hunting through open fields and vast
forests.
We are dedicated to the preservation of the rare German
Longhaired Pointer by focusing on producing dogs with intense
hunting drive and sound temperament. Our dogs are biddable,
loyal, and affectionate companions whose intelligence and
obedient nature makes them a wonderful family addition.
Our mission is to better the breed for North American
hunting conditions by enhancing strengths of our German
Longhaired Pointers. Our breeding program currently utilizes
German origin and strict German-style regulations for
breeding that allows our dogs offspring to excel as your hunting
companion.
