BREEDING VERSATILE HUNTING COMPANIONS TO THE BREED STANDARD IN HOUSTON TEXAS.

Updated 9/14/2023...  Please click PLANNED BREEDINGS for current availability.



Proud breeder, owner or co-owner of award winning German Shorthaired Pointers including a 2016 Best In Show Winner, multiple Top 25 Nationally Ranked Winners, 41 AKC Champions, Grand Champions, Show Dog Of The Year, Hunt Test Dog Of The Year, Senior Hunters, and AKC Master Hunters (Junior Hunters are not included in the 41).  MORE INFO

Awards and titles aside, I'm most proud that my Shorthairs are exceptional family and hunting companions. 








Here at Wing And A Prayer Shorthairs (WAAPS) we breed selectively for the desired characteristics of temperament, sound conformation, field performance and most of all health.  We breed AKC Champions because we believe a conformation champion reflects the ideal picture of what breeder's should strive for (hight, weight, angulation of limbs, what a dog should look like during movement etc.).  We hunt test our dogs in AKC and NAVHDA field events to prove their field performance abilities.  

We health test our dogs and report the results to the Orthopedic Foundation of Animals.  We do every heath test requirement set forth by our breed club, The German Shorthair Pointer Club of America.  


OUR NUTRITIONAL PROGRAM

Healthy joints are crucial in sporting group dogs.  

We spare no expense in feeding our dogs the highest quality nutrition possible, the raw diet.           Quality nutrition prevents your puppy from being vulnerable to many diseases like allergic disorders, allergy dermatitis, mange, autoimmune diseases, arthritis, lupus and even cancer.  While there is no guarantee your puppy will never get sick, we can guarantee we will do everything possible to give your puppy the very best nutrition possible.  

Our puppies are weaned to 100% Orijen Amazing Grains Large Breed Puppy after they are fed a wide variety of healthy raw foods from me.  Yet again, we spare no expense in our food choice for our puppies. 

What sets us aside from other breeders?  You're getting the very best we can possibly do.  Unsurpassed nutrition, the finest bloodlines, proven parents and hands on diligent care of our puppies.  Your puppy has been given every possible advantage at a great start.  

But Sharon, I don't need a show dog and I'm not finishing my dog to an AKC Master Hunter, why would I want your dogs?  Because titles prove value, temperament, intelligence, ability and it proves they are a great representation of their breed.

Sire:

GCH Whirlwind Go For Broke MHA "Gambler"


Dam: 

GCH WAAP's In It To Win It V. NEWPoint's Thunderstorm MH NA1 "Bristol"




This pairing of Gambler and Bristol that produced Lacy was the finest breeding for that year IN THE NATION if you consider both conformation and hunting.  Very few breeders breed Grand Champion to Grand Champion, even less breeders breed AKC Master Hunters to AKC Master Hunters, almost nobody breeds GCH MH to GCH MH.  Wing And A Prayer Shorthairs did both.  Go back one more generation and you'll see another Champion/Master Hunter Advanced, Champion/Master hunter, Champion Junior hunter and Dual Champion/Grand Champion/ Master Hunter (actually Camo is the highest titled GSP of all time).  


Lacy is a fully finished gun dog.  She is steady to wing and shot, retrieves to the hand when commanded to do so and honors her bracemate.   She is professionally field trained by Rev. Buck Henderson of Backyard Training Kennels.  She's also a Grand Champion.  Lacy is the complete package!

Beautiful Gracie was whelped on my Mom's birthday.  Mom signed her over to me before she passed of cancer.  She had never been bred.  

Gracie is daughter to my stunningly handsome Grand Champion "Sully" SH NA1.  

Gracie is intelligent and beautiful.  She has resided here with us since the passing of my Mom and hunts every season with my husband.  Her flashy points, desire to work and prey drive make her a delight to hunt with.  Her sweet temprement make her a pleasure to live with.  She is especially gentle with young children.

Pedigree

31 dogs/bitches in this pedigree including Daisy.  29 are AKC Champions or Grand Champions.  


This is the litter announcement for the Bristol x Agent pairing.  What do we see here?   EXTREME type!   You're looking at two of the finest bred GSP's for conformation you can find.  This pairing produced Daisy.  She was my pick bitch. 

My Bristol (dam to Daisy) is to this day, the only Grand Champion/ Master Hunter bitch in TX, 1 of only 3 in the nation that I know of.  

Agent is a Grand Champion who is sired by GCH Cyrus who was the #1 conformation GSP in 2016 and you might recognize him because he was Best Of Breed at Westminster giving him primetime TV coverage for Sporting Group. 

I did the very best I could possibly do when I paired Bristol with Agent.  My work paid off.  I literally think Daisy has better conformation than her mama.  I do not say that lightly because I hold Bristol in VERY high regard.  

Grand Champion blah blah blah asside...  Daisy is a loved family companion for her foster family, the Knights who reside literally 1 block up the street.

Riggs is one of the finest bred Shorthairs in history.   Show me any other pedigree with parents who have titles like these!  

About Riggs...   He was the EASIEST puppy to house train, he's extremely intelligent, he needs a DNA check because he's the calmest Shorthair you've ever lived with and he's everything you want in a hunting dog.  He is a fully finished gun dog.  He retrieves to the hand and was never force fetched.  He is professionally trained by Buck Henderson of Backyard Training Kennels.  Buck's exact words,  "Talk about putting natural retrieving back into your program."  

While his amazing genetics are just that, amazing, it's very important to know we do our hard work too.  Riggs is an exceptionally worthy stud dog, proven.
