Old Danish Pointer

The Old Danish Pointer, known in Danish as the Gammel Dansk Hønsehund, was developed in Denmark during the early 18th century, with records tracing its origins to around 1710. It is a calm, gentle, and affectionate breed that is known for being even-tempered and cooperative both in the field and at home. This breed was developed as a bird dog, used specifically for tracking and pointing game birds at a slow, methodical pace suited to Danish terrain.
