The Pudelpointer is the result of German sportsman Baron von Zedlitz’s attempt to produce an ideal tracking, pointing, and retrieving dog by crossing poodles with various German pointers. The Baron was years ahead in his thinking. Today, successful crosses such as the Standard Poodle and Labrador Retriever, producing the Labradoodle, are highly prized, but the superb yet underrated Pudelpointer remains a handsome oddity even in its German homeland.
