German Shorthaired Pointer Dogs Available for Adoption in Alexandria, Virginia

Toro is a handsome almost four year old GSP. Extremely loyal and like other GSPs, will be your shadow around the home.

He loves playing fetch (ball and/or stick) and loves the water. Toro is a 6.5/10 on the GSP energy scale. He is a fantastic snuggler and loves to curl up by a fire in the winter (LOVES snow!).

He has a blast at the dog park and doggy day care. Walks well on a leash with the side-kick leash. Well trained to common commands (heel, place, come, stay). Non-destructive in the home and house-trained.

He has been left for extended periods while attending football games, running errands and does fantastic in the home. He’s a gem. He always knows when you had a bad day and is ready to relax and cheer you up:)

Toro is efence trained but we will only put him in efence if its a larger property, he doesn’t appreciate people using his community yard as a short cut to other places, he prefers strangers to not come into his yard. So a smaller community with an efence is not in his best interest, a physical fence would be ideal.

Toro does live with children and does well with them. Toro is up for adventure, so if you are active, he is ready to go.

Toro is currently in Crofton, MD.
