Pointers and Setters Here and There Part Two.

In Part One of my "Here and There" series, I provided a brief overview of the differences and similarities in the overall bird dog and hunting cultures of North America and Europe. In this post, I'd like to take a look at the overall populations of the British and Irish pointing breeds in parts of Europe and the US.

In parts One and Two, I wrote about bird dog and hunting cultures in North American and Europe and compared the numbers of Pointers and Setters produced on each side of the Atlantic. In another post I just wrote, I take a quick look at some rather surprising statistics related to Pointers and Setters in their homelands, the UK and Ireland.
