Wanted: Proven Pointer

I would like to buy a 5-7 year old pointer that's proven itself in wild bird trials. I don't plan to trial the dog, I just want it as a hunting companion for grouse and pheasants about 50 days per year. I'd like to make my home a retirement home for one of your favorite old dogs. I'm not looking for just any dog, though. It needs to be kind, and it must have a strong desire to please. This dog is going to live in my house, so it needs to be quiet and able to "turn it off." It must get along with all other dogs and people - I'm not interested in a fighter or troublemaker. It must be broke, absolutely honest on game, and it must retrieve. Ideally, the dog would be black and white, with a 12 o'clock, ramrod-straight tail. Male or female - doesn't matter. If you have a great bird dog that's easy to have around but that has started to slow down just a little bit, please get in touch with me by email. I might have just the home for it.

I have the perfect dog for you. He will be $15,000 and I must be assured that he will not be abused in any way and that he will be allowed to hunt the rest of his years on wild birds in good country with good people. You will need to housebreak him as he is a kennel dog although he has spent many nights in motel rooms at field trials. He is a six year old shooting dog champion and an outstanding wild bird dog. He will not come with his papers as I do not want him bred to just any female.

Thanks Doug. If he's black and white, consider him sold. I'll have a check for $15,000 in the mail tomorrow morning.

Caleb, Every guy is maybe entitled to something. He IS black and white, weights 60 pounds and won an AFTCA Regional Championship this March. He is also a Runner Up National Champion and Futurity winner. I'll await the check and when it clears, we can make arrangements. Meanwhile, I'll be preparing to take him to North Dakota and trial him again this fall. There is a stud fee pending on him also which must be honored.

Now for a little less expensive animal...I have a four year old pointer male - also 12 o'clock tail who finds and points birds. He is your ideal black and white also!! He would likely take a dump in your shoe if allowed to come in the house and the contents of that package will be the remains of your other shoe. Later he will return to the scene of this crime and eat the other shoe and its contents. He is perfectly capable of repeating this phenomena an indefinite number of times for your entertainment. He has certinly been all that and more for me. He will fight and likely maim any other pets you own including females that are not in season. He will also lift his leg and mark everything within reach including the residents of the house. Also, DO NOT - DO NOT get between him and his food bowl and I recommend Kevlar gloves when setting down his bowl. If you are interested I will actually throw in this dog with the six year old champion! Deals like this are rarely offered even to guys on Internet chat rooms....

You know I got to thinking more about this. I am going to need photos of the hacienda, kennel, HVAC units, etc where these dogs are going to live, receipts for Pro Plan Performance purhcased over the past dozen years, references from veterinarians with whom you have a personal relationship guaranteeing your ability to care for a top flight animal, a recent (less than two years old) Minnesots Multi Phase Personality Inventory, a complete report from a private investigator including matching of sex offender roles and the usual FBI background checks and terrorist list cross referencing. After satisfactory review AND the check clears, congrats you will be the owner of not one but two white and black pointers. Silly me for not thinking this through more thoroughly - the dog's needs should at least match those of the pretender to ownership of such a canine.

I think I have the perfect dog for you!He is very talented, in fact when ever one of the females comes into heat, he manages to poop in his water bucket which is clipped 2 feet above the ground to the chain link.I have determined he is telling the other males he is King Sh**.All other times he is a fairly clean dog and attempts to poop through the chain link.He has also been a house dog and does fine solo.But, if you keep any females in the house consider your couch to be a hydrant.It would break my heart to cut him loose, but i'm willing to make the sacrifice.(If the price is right)

If there's an administrator around, please delete my original post. Clearly it was poorly worded.
