Since the 17th century, these dogs have been bred to “point” at game birds in the wild. But the breed also makes for a great family pet.

With its muscular build, noble head and laser-focused expressions, the Pointer is described as a combination of athletic grace and power.

As the name suggests, the Pointer is meant to be in the field. Since the 17th century, these dogs have been bred to “point” at game birds in the wild. But the breed also makes for a great family pet in the right setting, such as a farm.  It needs plenty of exercise, or will get frustrated and destructive.

Here, we find Pointers in their natural habitat, the field.
