Calvert Kennels- Akc / Navhda German Shorthair Pointers

Calvert Kennels raises AKC- and NAVHDA-registered German shorthaired pointers in Philomath, Oregon, situated in the heart of the Willamette Valley near Corvallis. Kathy Hinton has been at the helm of the program since it was established in 1996, making it one of the longer-running German shorthaired pointer programs in the Pacific Northwest.

The kennel's focus is on the Deutsch Kurzhaar bred for versatility in the field — dogs selected for intense prey drive, a confident and cooperative temperament, and the range suited to a foot hunter working upland and waterfowl game. Through selective breeding, the program has consistently produced dogs with strong natural ability on both upland birds and waterfowl. Located in the Willamette Valley, the kennel has year-round access to working and training terrain, which plays a central role in how dogs are developed and evaluated.

Puppies from Calvert Kennels are placed with approved hunting homes as well as active non-hunting households on a case-by-case basis. The kennel actively encourages NAVHDA participation, and past litters have produced dogs that have competed and earned scores in NAVHDA natural ability testing. Those looking for German shorthaired pointer puppies in Oregon with a documented working background will find Calvert Kennels' dual registration with both AKC and NAVHDA reflects its commitment to the breed's versatile gundog heritage.
