About Goose Believed to be a German shorthair pointer mix and just under a year old, Goose is a happy, friendly fellow with boundless energy. He has a sleek black-and-white coat and loving, big brown eyes. Goose is very food motivated and knows the commands sit, down, and shake. He does need some work on obedience skills. The American Kennel Club says German shorthair pointers "thrive on vigorous exercise, positive training, and lots of love," and that sounds like just what Goose is looking for in his new home. He weighs 60 lb.
