RE: Pudelpointer...
Mustad,
I have seen a few but never owned one. They are very nice dogs, excellent upland dogs with stylish points, good retrievers. The ones I have seen are also sweet dogs, not sharp at all.
Weaknesses would have to be the coat (a lot of variation among them as far as I can see) so getting the correct coat could be more of a gamble. The other negative is price, they don't come cheap, and you will probably have to wait a year or more for a pup.
I have not seen them bloodtrack as all I have seen were NAVHDA dogs and did not have to blood track. I also do not believe they have the fur drive like some other versatiles, but probably have more bird drive.
