FCI Pointer Group

The Pointer Group is a designation used only by the Fédération Cynologique Internationale for a group of dog breeds consisting of Pointers and Setters.

The Fédération Cynologique Internationale (FCI) additionally divides groups into subgroups, which the other main English-speaking kennel clubs do not. The FCI Pointer Group is made up of two different sections.

  • Section 1 : Continental Pointing Dogs
