The Pointer is an intelligent, biddable dog who will try their best to please their owners but if they are to be the star of the class, they need opportunities to show off what makes them such fabulous gundogs! Pet gundog classes or even scent work classes will be ideal for a Pointer. They should however be taught a reliable recall as outside they can easily be distracted by the thrill of the chase or just the joy of running. Some may only be safe off-lead in enclosed, totally safe areas.
