As wonderful as all of these dogs are and the status they have achieved they are only part of the bigger picture. Here at Bleugras all of our dogs are amazing (and most have achieved champion status!). With lineage such as this, it is easy to see why Bleugras dogs are truly extraordinary German Shorthaired Pointers.
