Q. & A. with Kevin
Why did you start breeding?
Our journey into breeding began with a love for the German Shorthaired Pointer’s intelligence, versatility, and loyalty. Over time, we recognized the need for responsible, quality-focused breeders. What started as a passion for raising our own dogs became a commitment to preserving and improving the breed for families and hunters alike.
What makes your program special?
Our breeding program is built on health, temperament, and performance. We carefully select bloodlines for balanced traits—ensuring each puppy thrives as both a family companion and working dog. With hands-on care, early training, and a focus on socialization, our dogs stand out for their confidence, versatility, and loving nature.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include liver roan, liver and white, black roan, and black and white. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and a kennel on my property.

Kevin was so responsive and knowledgeable about the breed, you can tell he truly cares about his dogs. He stayed in touch throughout the process and sent me regular updates about my puppy. When it came time to pick him up, Kevin was incredibly helpful and shared great tips for me as a first-time dog owner. Good Dog made everything so easy, from connecting with Kevin to arranging pickup and paying securely. I’m so glad I found Kevin through Good Dog, and I couldn’t be happier with my puppy dapper!

I recently purchased a puppy from Proper Pointers and I couldn’t be happier with the experience! From the very beginning, communication was clear and professional. They provided regular updates, photos, and answered all of my questions promptly. My puppy came with up-to-date vaccinations, and health records. It’s been a few weeks now, and Moxie is thriving — full of energy, affectionate, and clearly well-socialized. I appreciate how much care and effort went into giving these puppies the best start in life. I highly recommend Proper Pointers to anyone looking for a happy, healthy, and well-raised puppy. The entire process was smooth, transparent, and truly joyful.

I have been so impressed with Kevin. The communication has been extremely easy. He sent me pictures as she got older and when I was unsure of coloring he took the time to do a video.
She is one of the first dogs to attend their new puppy training school. He has sent me videos on her progress which is amazing. These basic training… sit, here, place, leash walking, crate training and potty training will make the transition to bringing her into our home way less stressful. Let’s be real we all have stressful first few weeks with a dog with potty accidents, training, and adjusting to their new home. I’m extremely happy this transition will be much easier.
I highly recommend Proper Pointer Co.
Health testing is one key piece of responsible breeding and is performed on breeding dogs to prevent the presence of heritable conditions in their puppies.
