If you want to own a good hunting dog breed that will help retrieve and work as a gun dog, I suggest owning an English Pointer. This is a purebred dog breed that is medium in size. If you know that you want an English Pointer but are unsure how to get one, I will help you. Below are some reputable breeders that have English Pointer puppies for sale.
How Much is an English Pointer Puppy?
Thankfully if this is your dream dog, you will not have to pay that much to get it. An English Pointer puppy will cost between $800 to $1,500 from a reputable breeder. This is very affordable compared to other purebred dog breeds.
Where Can I Find a Reputable English Pointer Breeder
When looking for English Pointer puppies for sale, It is best to begin your search with some reputable breeders. Below you will find four reputable breeders who are currently breeding. Check them out if you want to own an English Pointer one day.
Hackberry Kennels
This is a family-run kennel that got started with its first litter in 2009. This kennel is located in Georgia near Thomasville. It all started with their dog named Trya. After they had their litter, they decided to expand their kennel and get more breeding stock.
They specialize in producing and raising English Pointers with outstanding pedigrees. As a result, all dogs develop into very sound dogs that are intelligent, athletic, have great hunting abilities, and so much more.
Litters of puppies available will be announced on the breeder’s website. They also have frozen semen available if you are a breeder looking to get one of your dogs pregnant. Of course, if you do not see any information about litters, then you can always contact the breeder directly.
The best way to do that is to fill out the contact us form on the breeder webpagehttp://www.hackberrykennels.com/. You can also email the breeder directly to ask questions about English Pointer puppies.
Hollyfrost Pointers
Hollyfrost Pointers is a small hobby kennel whose goal is to produce high-quality, healthy English Pointers as well as other Pointer dog breeds. Over the past twenty-five years, this breeder has been actively working with Pointer dog breeds showing them as well as breeding them. As a result, they have championship bloodlines and have won many awards.
This breeder is accredited with the AKC and is listed as one of their reputable breeders. Each of their dogs gets tested by OFA to ensure they are genetically healthy before ever breeding. They have an entire log on each litter they have produced.
Sometimes they will have older dogs available for foster or adoption, so if you don’t mind having an older dog, you can check that out too. Before the breeder discloses any information on upcoming litters, you have to fill out an inquiry form.
This is standard procedure to ensure you are right for one of their dogs. Fill that out, and the breeder will reach back out to you. You can do all of that here: https://www.hollyfrostpointers.com/home
Upland Dogs
A man named Doug Burnett runs the kennel called Upland Dogs. Doug’s passion is raising dogs to hunt with their owners. He has over 15 years of experience training dogs in various skills for hunting. Not only can they train your dog to be a perfect hunting dog, but they also breed a few varieties of dog breeds such as the English Setter, Labrador Retriever, English Pointer, and German Wirehairs.
Their kennel is located on a ½ acre of land that has been completely fenced in. Each dog gets their own covered kennel that can allow the dog to go outside. There are a variety of trees around the property to provide the dogs with shade.
They have a few litters of puppies each year. Again, they breed a variety of different dog breeds, so I am unsure when they will have their next English Pointer litter. The breeder wants dogs to be placed in homes that can use the dog to its full potential and give it a good happy life. Dogs get a health guarantee for hips for 26 months.
Deposits for a puppy cost $100 and can be moved to a future litter if your deposited litter does not produce what you want. You will want to fill out the puppy registration form to express to the breeder what you want.

Paladen Kennel
The owner at Paladen Kennel has dedicated her kennel to follow the standard breeding practices for both the English Pointer and the German Shorthaired Pointer. All of her litters and pedigrees have been planned out to ensure that you are getting a very high-quality puppy.
Dogs are health tested and certified by the OFA to ensure your dog won’t have any hereditary or genetic defects. This breeder is also a breeder of merit with the AKC.
The health and well-being of the dogs are taken into consideration the entire time, and the breeder approves every new potential owner. So, when you know that you want to get one of their puppies, you will need to, of course, answer questions from the breeder to ensure you are a good match.
You can also ask the breeder about when they are planning on having their next litter. Sometimes breeders don’t have the most up-to-date information on their website, so you can just ask the breeder directly through email if that is the case.

English Pointer Rescue
Remember, another great way to acquire your dream dog is through a rescue. The Pointer Rescue is a non-profit organization that is dedicated to rescuing purebred Pointers. They rely on volunteers to help run this rescue and keep the dogs until they get adopted into their forever homes.
Keep in mind just because you are going through a rescue, you will still need to be approved to adopt a dog. You will need to fill out an adoption application and get approved. However, your adoption fee will be very reasonable and less than a puppy will cost.
