Dakota Roots Coming Summer 2026
This exciting litter is planned for June/July 2026 and represents a pairing of passion and purpose—where our Texas foundation meets our South Dakota beginnings. With a dam raised in our Texas program and a sire from strong Midwest working lines, this Summer 2026 pairing unites the heart of the South with the heritage of the Dakotas. This litter honors the bond between generations, carrying forward the qualities that define Tipsy Rabbit: temperament, health, versatility, and undeniable heart. Full announcement coming early 2026.
Dedicated Breeding for Quality Pointers
The summer of 2026 marks another milestone in the growth of the Tipsy Rabbit. Building a strong, thoughtful breeding program takes time, patience, and vision—and we’re proud to see those efforts come to life in this upcoming litter.
At the Tipsy Rabbit, we are dedicated to raising exceptional German Shorthaired Pointers in a loving home environment. A cornerstone of that commitment is our Guardian Family Program, which offers select families the opportunity to partner with us in developing the next generation of quality GSPs while providing a TopDog with a permanent, loving home.
What makes this program so special? Guardian families play a vital role in our breeding program by offering a forever home to one of our TopDogs, ensuring their health, training, and development while they remain part of our program. This unique arrangement allows our dogs to thrive in a family setting—receiving love, adventure, and stability—while contributing to the future of the breed.
Our carefully chosen Guardian Homes ensure that every one of our TopDogs is cherished as a family member, not just part of a kennel. This approach strengthens our program and guarantees that every TopPup begins their journey rooted in the values we hold most dear: health, heritage, connection and heart.
Our Commitment to Excellence
At t Tipsy Rabbit, we are proud to be recognized by the AKC Bred with H.E.A.R.T. program, reflecting our dedication to Health, Education, Accountability, Responsibility, and Tradition in breeding. We prioritize health, temperament, and early training, ensuring every puppy has the best possible foundation.
From day one, our puppies undergo Early Neurological Stimulation (ENS) to enhance resilience, adaptability, and development. We incorporate litterbox training, kennel training, and early obedience work to set them up for success. Socialization is key—our puppies are raised in our home, surrounded by family, children, adult dogs, and even cats, helping them grow into well-adjusted, confident companions.
We carefully breed for the perfect balance of drive and an “off switch”, producing dogs that excel in the field, on the water, and in canine sports—yet settle beautifully at home. Each puppy receives comprehensive veterinary care, including tail docking, dewclaw removal, a full health exam, parasite screening and their first heartworm/flea preventative. They go home with prepaid AKC registration, microchip enrollment, vet records, and a puppy starter kit for a smooth transition.
At the Tipsy Rabbit, our goal is to produce exceptional companions, performance dogs, and working partners who embody the heart and soul of the German Shorthaired Pointer breed. We are proud to support and celebrate our dogs’ accomplishments beyond the whelping box, and provide an incentive for each AKC-recognized title or NAVHDA testing milestone earned—including achievements such as Canine Good Citizen (CGC), Junior Hunter (JH), Dock Diving (NADD), Trick Dog, Rally, FAST CAT, and NAVHDA’s Natural Ability Test. These accomplishments reflect the intelligence, drive, and versatility we strive to cultivate in every TopDog we breed.
Intentional Matches for Exceptional Puppies
Ready to take the next step? At the Tipsy Rabbit, we believe the best adventures begin with a meaningful connection. Welcoming a TopPup means stepping into a story filled with heart, loyalty, and joy—but it also calls for commitment and intention. We work hard to place our puppies in homes that truly understand the needs of this intelligent, high-drive breed. GSPs flourish with structure, consistency, and a lifestyle that gives them purpose and room to thrive.
