The mission of Ohio Shorthair Rescue, Inc. (OSR), a not for profit organization, is to rescue, rehabilitate, and find appropriate, loving permanent homes for purebred German shorthaired pointers that are abused, abandoned, unwanted, cannot be cared for in their current home, or are in the custody of animal shelters, pounds, and the like. We also strive to educate the public about German shorthaired pointers, proper veterinary care, the importance of spay/neuter, responsible and humane pet care, training, and choosing the right pet.
