Where Every Paw Feels at Home.
Also known as English Pointer
A sleek, tireless runner bred to freeze on a scent
The Pointer is a lean, athletic gundog bred to range widely and freeze on game. Friendly and gentle at home, it has huge stamina and needs real running space. The short coat is easy, but the thin skin feels cold and rough terrain.

Best-matched service
Around two hours a day for a healthy adult, including safe off-lead running. Without it they become restless and can turn destructive.
Rarely. They are calm indoors when well exercised, but need a lot of running space and are best in a home with a garden or access to open country.
Moderately. The short coat sheds fine hairs year-round but needs only a weekly brush or rub-down to stay in good condition.
