How tall is an Old Danish Pointer?

What an Old Danish Pointer’s height measures

Height is measured at the withers, the top of the shoulders. The head and ears extend above that line. The American Kennel Club breed profile gives 21.5-23.5 inches males; 19.5-22 inches females. Choose the sex or size variety above where the source separates them. A range describes the published listing, not the height of every individual dog.

Ranked by the tallest height its standard names (23.5 in), the Old Danish Pointer is the 121st tallest of the 297 dog breeds on this site. See the tallest dog breeds ranked.

Drawn at the same 21.5 in: Dutch Shepherd, French Spaniel and German Shepherd. Same drawing, different listings: an Old Danish Pointer’s figure is the lower end of its male range, a Dutch Shepherd’s and a French Spaniel’s each the lower end of its range, a German Shepherd’s the lower end of its female range.

This is a published species or breed reference, not a prediction for an individual animal. Where a range is supplied, both ends appear with the reading. Shoulder height and head height are kept apart when comparing animals.
