While not proven, some think that the German Shorthaired Pointer is a descendant of different types of German hunting, scent hounds, trail and track dogs, such as the Old Spanish Pointer, German Bird Dog, Hounds of St. Hubert (Bloodhound types), and the Foxhound. Later the English Pointer was crossed in to add speed and endurance. The German hunters were after an all-purpose utility dog that not only had a good nose, but could point, track, was an excellent retriever, gun-dog, in both field and water for both feather and fur. They also wanted a dog that was an excellent weekend hunter, but made a good family companion and watchdog. The German Shorthaired Pointer was recognized by the AKC in 1930. The German Shorthaired Pointer contributed in the development of the German Wirehaired Pointer. The German Shorthaired Pointer's talents are show dog, obedience, gun dog, retrieving, tracking trials, field trials, and hunting tests.

Yes, the Weimaraner and the German Shorthaired Pointer share a common ancestry and are closely related, both originating from Germany. They were developed for hunting and sporting purposes, with the Weimaraner being bred primarily for tracking and retrieving large game, while the German Shorthaired Pointer was designed for versatility in hunting various types of game. Both breeds exhibit similar physical traits and temperaments, reflecting their shared heritage.
GOOD quality German Shepherd lines which are WORTH a lot are selectively bred. Poor bred German Shepherds are not, hence why they are not good quality.
