I've been looking for a partner to ride around in the truck, go on hikes, maybe even find a dove I hit in deep brush. Saw a dog on petfinder, a rescue, and immediately was attracted to her. Went to meet her and she wanted NOTHING to do with me but I knew she was perfect for me. Picked her up the next week after a home visit by the foster mom and dad. I have no idea what she truly is, a hybrid pointer/Dane mix seems likely. I do know she's awesome. She has a strong hunt instinct but gentle with small dogs, cats and kids. She's polite; takes treats gently, walks great on a leash and never tries to "escape" me. Heck, she rarely even barks! One fault/trait is she'll get to hunting/exploring and forget I exist. She gets so locked in on scents it's hard to get her attention. I just ordered a Sportdog 425 and I think after a little work with that she'll be more responsive. She's a real doll.

I'm thinking short hair her body and head are just like my short hair, but what do I know I stayed in a Hampton Inn not a Holiday inn. I'm sure she will be great, good luck!!

There is time, and you must take it, to lay your hand on your dog's head as you walk past him lying on the floor or on his settle, time to talk with him, to remember with him, time to please him, time you can't buy back once he's gone" GBE

Since people are offering their opinions, I think mostly Dane.

She's pretty, and you like her. Nothing else matters.
Shopping with your husband is like hunting with the game warden. Experience is what you get, when you didn't get what you wanted.

Good lookin pup. I see GSP also
Haven't had it in years but never spit any out. I am a sucker for happy endings and strapped cowboys.

Outstanding...I've rescued many GSP's and Labs...THAT is pointer/dane mix. She looks like a lot of fun.

She looks and sounds like my GSP. The long tail and jaw are Daneish or EP, but the hunting drive and sweet disposition sounds like a hunter to me.
They make ammo specifically for hunting for a reason!
