    Pointing Dalmatian?

    Anyone noticed their Dalis pointing?

    I've seen Cooper do it a couple of times in the garden. I know they were used as gundogs in the past, but thought it would have been bred out by now.

    Lots of non-pointing breeds will do a point like stance...whether they will hold the point like an actual pointing breed is another thing!

    My Pit Bulls do it. It's a dog thing. Traits of specific breeds are from dog behaviors that have been bred to extreme and consistency.

    Add a Border Terrier to the list. Rosie looks so cute when she 'points' :)
