well i do have to say for a German Pointer side.. the GSP males are stronger and built bigger.. if you dont want a huge dog's head that can measure up to your hip.. female GSP's head would reach about your knee cap or more but not as big as a male.
I have a male GSP and hes a great dog. My mom has a English Settler mix and she listens well however, she doesnt like to sit when commanded nor does she stop a chase if shes locked on. My GSP will stop a chase if i command him to stop.
I think real life human genders can relate. LOL
