Meet the breeder
I'm Shelby G., the breeder behind Gibson located in Powhatan County, VA. I am a responsible, in-home breeder of quality German Shorthaired Pointer puppies. I focus on hunting ability and versatility. I hand-raise each of my puppies to ensure a reliable temperament and cherished companionship. My dogs work hard, play hard, love hard, and are part of the family. I look forward to connecting with you!
Q. & A. with Shelby
Why did you start breeding?
I started my breeding program because so many people expressed interest in my puppies! My dog is happy, healthy, and beautiful - but most importantly, it has amazing natural hunting instincts and versatility. I strive to continue his legacy by responsibly sharing his unique qualities through producing purposeful litters. It is such an honor to preserve the line of my incredible dog all the while creating companionship and a hunting partner for others!What makes your program special?
The time, energy, attention that I devote towards my GSPs is what makes Gibson special. My commitment is to provide you with a professional and friendly puppy-buying experience, and that includes always having responsible practices when it comes to breeding, training, and rehoming my puppies. If you are looking for the perfect, quality companion, look no further!Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
