More: My German shorthair is the most loyal and loving dog I have ever had. She has a great nose and confinement any object that I put sent On. She sits on my lap while I watch television, and lays next to me when I’m outside. Her favorite time is when I go to sleep she has to lay next to my side. I have had a number of dogs, and other German shorthair’s, but she is the best. She has been retrieving ducks since four months old.
