Foster Update 2/18/14
• Energy Level - She is high energy. She loves to play and run around. She will make anything a toy. She is still learning leash manners so she sometimes goes full speed ahead. My son is able to walk her though and enjoys spending time with her. She is very alert and always wants to see what's going on or be in the middle.

• Food (How much and how frequently does your foster dog eat? She eats twice a day. We mix a cup of dry food with either cream of chicken soup or gravy. Sometimes we will mix a little wet food in instead just to give a different flavor. Breakfast she usually eats at once but dinner she tends to graze. She will eat some and then go play and then come back for more.
• Adaptability - She is very adaptable. She felt right at home in our house from the moment she walked in the door.
• Behaviors - She does like to chew so it is best if she has little toys she can chew. We gave her peanut butter flavored bones that she liked to chew on and play with. She is really a big baby and sometimes doesn't realize how big she is. She likes to stand up and get on your level so she will stand on her hind legs and rest her front legs on you.
• Human Social Skills - She is extremely friendly and loves people. She likes to follow me around the house and see what's going on. She also likes to curl up in my son's bed and lay with him while he watches TV. She loves to give kisses.
• Obedience - She knows sit, stay and down. She is a good listener and I think she will take to new skills/commands easily.
• Training - She is housetrained. She is still learning crate training. She will go into the crate but sometimes it takes some coaxing because she is still ready to play. She learns really quickly after one time going out the back door for her walk whenever we mention walk she immediately runs to that door and looks back for us.
• Personality Quirks - She is incredibly sweet and loves to be around people. She is very social and loves to play. When you talk to her she will look at you and cock her head like she is trying to understand what you are saying. She loves to be pet and will come up to you and put her head and front paws in your lap and just stand there as long as you pet her. She likes to look out the window. She has a great personality and would be a wonderful edition to anyone's home. She is very smart and has figured out how to open my french doors so she can go on our back porch and talk with the neighbors. When I come home from work at night she runs to greet me at the door and wants to stand and give me her paws so that she can give me kisses and I can pet her head.
• Ideal Home - Her ideal home would be with an active family that can wrestle around and play with her. She loves to fetch and play. She would be great with a home with a big back yard that she can run and play and be outside. She would be great with kids but since she moves at full speed it would be best to watch her around little ones so she doesn't knock them over. She loves my son though and will spend hours in his room with him.
Krissam was one of a very large litter of puppies born to a mama named Cookie. She was raised by a great foster until she found her own home. Sadly, because of a sad family tragedy, Krissam is back with us. Her previous owners reported:
Krissam is working on her leash manners. She is still young, so she wants to explore everything, and she doesn't quite get that you take her for a walk, not the other way around. She is housebroken and in fact loves to be outside. She enjoys running around and is very playful. She runs free in the house and likes to sleep with you at night. The ideal home for Krissam is probably one where she can get lots of love (of course!) and lots of playtime with an active family.
According to www.dogbreedinfo.com, according to the most credible hypothesis, the Pointer was developed two centuries ago by crossing among the Italian Pointer, the Foxhound, the Bloodhound, the Greyhound, the Newfoundland, the Setter, and the Bulldog. This is an almost unbelievable mix, but it certainly has produced an outstanding result. The modern Pointer has existed for about eighty years. The Pointer is named for the motionless stance the dog assumes once he has found game. The direction of the point tells the hunter where the game is hiding. The first recorded mentions of the Pointer in England date from around 1650, when the Pointer was used to find hare for the Greyhound to hunt. By the early 1700's the Pointer became the dog of choice. The Pointer is renowned for his scenting prowess. He works very quickly, covering a lot of ground. The Pointer is particularly good on upland birds, but adapts well to other game. The breed has excellent endurance in warm weather, but is not suited to very cold conditions. Working best on land he is not very comfortable in water. He has a legendary tracking and pointing skills, but is not usually expected to retrieve game. The English Pointer is full of energy and go-power. Loyal and devoted he is a true friend. Kind and patient with children, he is a dashing gentleman. The Pointer is affectionate, intelligent and clean. An energetic and enthusiastic hunter, yet calm at home. Wise and adaptable to every situation. Socialize well at an early age to combat a tendency for timidity. Some can be high-strung. They tend to be a bit willful, distractible and reserved with strangers. It will bark at suspicious noises, but it is not a watchdog. Show lines tend to produce better pets. Field lines are often too active and hunt-oriented to make good pets. Hunting instincts develop early. Puppies, even at eight weeks old, often display pointing behavior. These fairly independent dogs are generally good with other pets and are not usually dog-aggressive. They have a life expectancy of 13-14 years.
