History

Believed to have originated in the sixteenth and seventeenth century from Europe. There are known records of the Pointer in England dating back to as early as 1650, when Pointers were used to find hare. Most sources indicate that the Pointer was developed by crossing these baseline breeds: Greyhound, Foxhound, Bloodhounds and Bull Terriers. A few other sources include the Italian Pointer, the Setter, Newfoundland and the Bulldog.

Brought to the States in the late 1800s, this breed is primarily used for hunting upland birds, but can be adapted to hunt other game.

The bird of choice for most Pointer owners is the Bobwhite Quail, which is perfectly suited to the Pointers ability, because the Bobwhite would rather hold than flush. Other upland birds for which the Pointer is well suited is the Pheasant, Grouse and Woodcock.

Since it was permitted to complete in field trails in the early 1900s, the Pointer has dominated the pointing breed class. The �American Field� Field Trail Hall of Fame list 97 Pointers out of a total of 138 dogs.

One of the most notable American Kennels was formed by Robert Wehle in 1936. Robert Wehle named his kennel Elhew Kennels, which is his name spelled backwards. He formed the kennel at the age of 15 after receiving a female Pointer named Jem of Fern, as a gift from his dad. Whele breed Jem of Fern to a English Pointer named Frank of Sunnylawn, which produced the first Elhew prefixed dog named Elhew Midge. Elhew Kennels high standards and long range breeding program have made the Elhew pointers one of the most desirable Pointers available today and is a well known name at field trail events across America.
