Small Munsterlander Pointer Information

The Small Munsterlander originated in Germany in the 15th century. Around that time, the common man was permitted to hunt. Prior to the Industrial Revolution, hunting was only for the wealthy land owners who could afford specialized dogs for the pursuit of prey.

New breeds were developed that could meet the needs of the new hunting class. They needed one dog that could point, track and retrieve birds and mammals on land and water. Because this dog was going to be kept in the home, the dogs size and temperament were also factors in the breed. The Small Munsterlander, being one of the older longer haired versatile breeds, was likely used to develop some of the other breeds in this class.

At one time, there were two distinct lines of this breed, one with a fine body shape and lighter bone structure, the other heavier boned and muscled. In North America, the heavier body type is more common.
