Old Danish Pointer Dog Secrets: Old Danish Pointer Breed Information, Characteristics & Heath: Reference Book about Old Danish Pointer Dog (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798462715303)

Old Danish Pointers are strongly built. One of the most charming features of the breed is the great difference between male and female. While the dog is powerful and substantial, the female is characterized by being lighter, more spirited, and capricious.
While the Old Danish Pointer's history is not known for certain, it is widely accepted that around 1710, Morten Bak began cross breeding gypsy dogs with local farm dogs. Bak lived in Glenstrup, Denmark located near Randers and Hobro. After carefully breeding for eight generations, the resulting dogs were named Bakhounds. These dogs were uniform in coloring, being white and brown piebald. Researchers think that the local farm dogs used to develop the Old Danish Pointer were Bloodhounds and Squire Scent Hounds. Squire Scent Hounds directly descended from the St. Hubert Hounds. The gypsy dogs are thought to have been Spanish Pointing Dogs and other scent hounds of Spanish influence.
This book includes appearances, information, history, health and care, puppy caring, feeding dogs and more.
