Working pointers are the epitome of athleticism, grace and natural hunting instinct. Watch our new film to learn how one of our oldest gundog breeds is as relevant today as it has ever been.
Featuring top handlers and pointer and setter Kennel Club A Panel judges, Richard MacNicol and Terry Harris, the film demonstrates how the characteristics of a pointer are perfectly suited to shooting walked-up grouse, and highlights the inextricable bond between handler and dog.
