When training young pointing dogs, I always recommend teaching “whoa” before “sit.” 🐶 If you teach “sit” first, your dog might sit down when confused or pressured in the field, especially when establishing point. Teaching “whoa” first helps them stand tall and stay steady, making for a smoother transition during hunts. But if you do teach “sit” at home, be sure to balance it by practicing “whoa” just as much!

“The Pointer, sometimes called the English Pointer, is a medium-sized breed of pointing dog developed in England. Pointers are used to find game for hunters, and are considered by gundog enthusiasts to be one of the finest breeds of its type; however, unlike most other hunting breeds, its purpose is to point, not retrieve game.

The popular belief is that the Pointer descends from the Old Spanish Pointer that was brought to England from Spain with returning soldiers at the beginning of the 18th century. Once in England, they were crossed with local dog breeds to improve the breed’s hunting abilities.

Etymology
The Pointer takes its name from the stance it adopts when it detects the scent of game, “pointing” at the hidden game as a visible signal to the hunter that it has found something and where it is; the breed is sometimes called the English Pointer to differentiate it from other pointing dog breeds. The term “bird dog” is usually used to describe all pointing dogs and setters, but in the United States the term is often used to describe the Pointer breed, particularly south of the Mason–Dixon line.”

North Point Kennels brings you an early December Pheasant hunt on a private land, not posted, that is heavily hunted and right next to a PLOTS area.

Featuring Dre, Cloe, and Wess, we get to see some of the best dog action of the year as the survivor birds refuse to hold tight or go easily.

This hunt is one of the best examples of true late season North Dakota wild birds as they test our dogs skills!

Watch Talmadge Smedley as he trains a dog named Wally. You’ll watch as Wally goes from very invested in chasing the birds to pointing instead. By the end of the workout Wally is standing as birds fly because he knows that there will be more birds. This is the first steps in steading a bird dog to the flush and shot.
