Pointer Dog is a medium-sized athletic pointing dog breed from England. It is also known as an English Pointer to differentiate it from other pointing dog breeds. Generally, the term 'bird dog' is used to describe all setters and pointing dogs. However, in the USA the term is often used to describe the Pointer Dog. This breed gets its name from the stance( this is where the dog stands tall and still with one foot lifted off the ground, tail extended, and the nose is turned up to point the hunter in the right direction). The dog adopts this position when it detects the scent of game.
