Read more about the Point - Refining the Pointing Instinct Video
No matter how many times a bird dog pins a covey, or a big old rooster, or a wary grouse, there's always a monumental adrenaline rush in the hunter that comes with finding a bird dog on a hard, stylish point. There's nothing to compare to it in the world of upland gunning! A dog's pointing instinct can't be taught; it's genetic, an inherited instinct that is the result of generations of selective breeding. But it can be refined, improved, and perfected, and that's the subject of this video...the "point" - the whole realm of the point - from evaluating a pup's potential, to putting the finishing touches on a dog that's steady to wing, shot, and fall. Segments include Pups and Pointing, Introducing Birds and the Gun; Teaching "Whoa!", Steadiness on Point, Steady to Wing, Shot, & Fall, and Honoring Point.
