Default RE: Suggestion on Type of Pheasant Dog?

GSP's shed. Very Energetic for indoors (not recommended for indoors). Great dog though for Pheasants or any upland.

Drahthaar's or the German Wirehair Pointer. They are shedders, Very active indoors (not recommended for indoors). Great dogs for almost any purpose, upland or waterfowl.

Weimaraner's are much like GSP's. Shed, active indoors, great upland dogs.

Brittany's are shedders, and EXTREMELY active for indoors. They are wonderful dogs. They bounce off the walls in a house though.

Boykin Spaniels do not shed, and if they do at all it is very minimal. They are good inside. Very inteligent. However, they are better suited to flushing and retrieveing than pointing.

English Pointers shed, high strung, not too good inside. Good bird dogs.

Setters shed, probably ok indoors. Great Bird dogs.

Labs of course shed like no other, but are great inside and great dogs.

Springer spaniels constantly shed, but are good inside and good pheasant dogs.


The choice is yours. Get a good vacuum and dont look back, decide based on the dog that suits your needs, vacuuming hair isnt so bad.
