German Shorthaired Pointer? anyone has one

I really love this breed but have never had any experiences with it.
Does anyone own one and can shed some insight on the breed?
As I mentioned previously, my dear baby died two days ago. I'm not looking to replace him since no one ever could but I feel so lonely without a dog (I've never lived without one!) So Im looking to get a different breed of dog from my dear Timbit.

Anyone?

I know a lot about them and have been researching for a while now, they are an awesome breed. Im hopefully going to meet some soon. Here is a good Shorthair forum http://www.shorthairs.net/GSPForum/t...2/Default.aspx
You should go to some dog shows in your area. You can meet breeders, some involved in rescue. Here you can search for a dog show in your area: http://www.akc.org/events/search/

I spent 14 years campaigning them in AKC and American Field, field trials and own a GWP now. Here are some pictures from 30 years ago. All field champions Except Vanna our GWP we have now. I started in Weimeraners and absolutely love the German bird dogs. Actually looking at my Avatar you can see I like all the German breeds.
