History

The German Longhaired Pointer was developed in Germany for use as a pointer. Selective breeding began in 1879; breed standards drawn up by the Template:Langr of Hannover were not found satisfactory, and in 1893 a breed association – the Template:Langr – was established by Friedrich von Schorlemer-Alst, who in 1897 drew up the breed standard on which the modern Langhaar is based.[3]Template:R/superscript[4]Template:R/superscript
It was definitively accepted by the Fédération Cynologique Internationale in 1954.[2]Template:R/superscript
In the fifteen years from 2010 to 2024, the annual number of new registrations in Germany averaged about 509, with a low of 352 and a high of 587; the total number of registrations in the period was 7632, or about 0.68% of the total of 1127154 registrations.[5]Template:R/superscript
