I have a white english pointer she is a female , she lives in the house excellent dog very calm and has a good nose holds point forever. Trained her from a pup easy to do use a fishing pole with 40 pound test line connected to a pheasent wing go back and fourth until dog points and holds. Then use live birds connected to 40 lb line to big coke jug with water in it 3 feet lead. Keep telling dog to wow and don't let her break.
