Out walking this morning with my dog, Beau, we met Baron, a 2 year old Braque Français. The small photograph isn't quite sharp but it shows him in real hunting dog stance. Braque translates as Pointer but he hasn't the pointy nose of a Pointer. There are apparently two types - the BF type Gascony and the BF type Pyrénées. Take a look at the Braque Français Club website to read more.Baron and his owner live in Gorbio. He hunts sanglier (wild boar) but also keeps snakes at bay.
Note his bell - all hunting dogs wear a bell so hunters know where their dogs are.
What a beautiful dog. MB
ReplyDeleteBaron seems to be asking a question with his eyes. I always wonder what a dog is thinking.
