Lakeside Hills German Shorthaired Pointers
Meet the breeder
I'm Casey D., the breeder behind Lakeside Hills German Shorthaired Pointers located in Crawfordsville, IN. I'm a small breeder located in the hills of Lake Holiday in Crawfordsville, IN. I’m a 4th generation breeder and 2nd generation Pointer breeder. I found a breed that I love! The versatility of a German Shorthaired Pointer is uncanny and couldn’t ask for a better breed.
