About the Portuguese Pointer (Imp)
This breed is one of the smaller pointing types, thought to share ancestry with the Spanish Pointer. Its structure is more robust than the standard Pointer, and it has a broader skull. Before the advent of firearms, this dog worked in conjunction with a hawk, indicating game with a 'point' before the hawk was released to catch the quarry. This historic working dog brings a rich heritage to the pointing group, appealing to those who appreciate its traditional role.
