Evermore Pointers

bitantly, so I do not have puppies available at all times. I plan my litters carefully giving much thought to who I will be breeding and when. Some people have waited over 1 year for a puppy from me. I personally have waited nearly 4 years for a particular puppy to be born from another breeder. The money that I make from any puppy sales does not even cover my dogs’ food bill for the year let alone veterinarian, competition, training or other expenses! Puppies can be around $1,550.00 more or less depending on the terms (show, performance, jr. handler, pet, co-owning etc…). If you have an issue with spending that amount of money or have to have a dog within a certain time constraint maybe you would prefer to consider a rescue Pointer. There IS a difference between show lines of Pointers and field lines of Pointers and the differences can be vast. That being said, just because I show my dogs DOES NOT mean that they do not have hunting abilities. All of my dogs have been exposed to upland game birds and I have not had any that lack natural instinct. I have competed in AKC Hunt Tests with some of my dogs and they all were able to finish their titles. Due to current time and financial constraints I am not presently able to pursue this or other venues, such as obedience, as fully as I would like to. A bit about Jennifer’s background.
