Story
Meet Benny! Benny is an approximately 3-year-old German Shorthaired Pointer mix with a striking black-and-white coat, beautifully dotted with spots. He’s friendly with absolutely everyone he meets—this boy doesn’t have a mean bone in his body. Affectionate, eager to please, and full of love, Benny is wonderful with dogs, cats, and kids alike. Benny came to our rescue needing emergency surgery for a urinary blockage and stones. He was very underweight at the time and is still working on filling out, but his surgery was a success. To keep him healthy long-term, Benny will need to stay on a prescription urinary diet for life. He also benefits from more frequent potty breaks, and when that isn’t possible, he does great wearing a belly band. True to his GSP roots, couch potatoes need not apply—Benny is full of energy! He lives for fetch and will happily play as long as you’re willing to throw. Toss him a toy and he’ll leap into the air to catch it—he’s incredibly athletic. Super-chewer toys are best for this guy; soft toys don’t stand a chance. When playtime winds down, Benny transforms into a snuggly lap dog. He loves curling up under a blanket with his people and soaking up all the affection he can get. Benny is also crate trained. He eats his meals in his crate, and he sleeps soundly and quietly in his crate every night, making him a great option for those looking for a well-behaved, crate-comfortable companion. Whoever adopts Benny will be incredibly lucky—he truly is the best dog. If you’re looking for a joyful, loving companion with a big heart, boundless energy, and the ability to settle down when needed, Benny may be your perfect match!

Story
This is Barrett. He's a 7 year old purebred German Shorthaired Pointer. We got him as a puppy from an Amish farm in Lancaster, PA. He was an outside pup living on a farm and before he turned a year old he was hit by a farm vehicle. He broke his arm and we believe he had a concussion. We had his arm repaired so he could still point/hunt, so he does have pins in his left, front arm. We have kept his as an outside dog for all of his life, unless it gets too cold or too hot. However, he is not well potty trained for indoors. He enjoys being outside, he will chase after any critter or deer though. We used an under ground wire fence for him, which worked well most of the time. He will chase cats but doesn't seem like he wants to eat them. He's a bit food aggressive around other animals and kids, but hasn't bit anyone. He loves to go on hikes with us and is a good dog but needs training if indoors. He would love a big place where he can run and bring all his energy!

Story
WE ARE A TX-BASED RESCUE. THIS DOG IS CURRENTLY LOCATED IN TX AND WILL BE TRANSPORTED UPON ADOPTION. Please fill out an adoption application at haydudeequine.org Meet Stella – Professional Snuggler, Part-Time Blanket Thief 🤍🐾 10 years young • 50 lbs • German Shorthair Pointer If you’re looking for a dog who believes personal space is optional and companionship is mandatory, allow us to introduce the one and only Stella. At 10 years old, Stella is proof that age is just a number. This gorgeous German Shorthair Pointer still has pep in her step, joy in her heart, and enough enthusiasm to power a small village. She’s the perfect medium-sized best friend — big enough for adventures, small enough to fit nicely on your couch (or directly on top of you). Stella’s life motto is simple: “Wherever you go, I go.” Need a walking buddy? She’s ready. Going for a car ride? Shotgun is her seat. Just trying to sit on the couch? Perfect — she’ll be there in 0.3 seconds. She is what we lovingly call a Grade-A Velcro Dog. If loyalty were an Olympic sport, Stella would have a gold medal, a parade, and her face on a cereal box. Her adorable highlights: • House trained (no indoor oopsies!) • Crate trained like a champ • Walks nicely on a leash • Wonderful with other dogs • Loves every human she’s ever met • Expert-level cuddler • Olympic gold medalist in burrowing under blankets Speaking of blankets… Stella takes her snuggle game VERY seriously. She doesn’t just sleep under covers — she disappears into them like a cozy little pointer burrito. If you’ve ever wanted a dog-shaped heating pad for your feet, congratulations, she’s your girl. Being a classic GSP, Stella does have a natural prey drive, so she’s not a match for homes with cats. She can also have a touch of anxiety, which really just means she thrives with someone who’s home often and enjoys having a devoted shadow. (Good luck going to the bathroom alone ever again.) Stella was surrendered through no fault of her own when her previous family didn’t have the time she deserves. Now she’s ready for a fresh start — with people who will love her, include her, and appreciate just how special she is. What she’s dreaming of: • A home where she can be part of the daily routine • A comfy couch and plenty of blankets • Walks, love, and more love • A human who appreciates a dog that sticks to them like glue If you’re a fan of the GSP breed and want a sweet, affectionate, loyal best friend who will happily follow you to the ends of the earth (or at least to the fridge), Stella is ready to audition for the role. Fill out her adoption application and give her the second chance she deserves. She promises to repay you in kisses, cuddles, and lifetime loyalty. 💛🐾
