Bennie

Bennie

Bennie is a two-year-old liver male German Shorthaired Pointer. He was picked up as a stray by a local animal shelter and rescued by California GSP Rescue. He is adorable, and may have a touch of separation anxiety as he always wants to be near you!

Bennie was kenneled with a well-socialized dog at the animal shelter and has done well with other social GSP’s. However, he sometimes gets excited when he meets new dogs and will need some training on introductions. 

Bennie is a young active German Shorthaired Pointer who has lacked exercise and training. While adorable, he will need someone to work with and train him.

Bennie has all the characteristics of a young male GSP. He is athletic, active, loves attention, and wants to be close to his owner. Like with all young GSP’s, exercise and training are the key - with exercise being essential. Bennie will be the perfect dog for someone that can provide him with the daily exercise he needs.
