The French Pointing Dog - Gascogne Type is generally a healthy breed with a lifespan of around 10-14 years. However, like many medium-sized sporting dogs, they can be prone to certain genetic issues such as hip dysplasia and elbow dysplasia. Regular veterinary check-ups and screenings, especially for joint health, are recommended. This breed may also be susceptible to ear infections due to their floppy ears, so routine cleaning and inspection are essential to prevent issues.

Maintaining a healthy weight through balanced diet and regular exercise can significantly reduce the risk of many health problems.
