The English Pointer is a very famous breed, not only in its homeland but also abroad. These dogs were widely used in the 17th century for hunting small and large game. In turn, they are descended from the Spanish hunting dogs Perro de Punta Espanyol, or Spanish pointers, which have a very ancient history and are mentioned by Pliny in the 1st century AD.

English Pointers were trained by Christian monks, and after the arrival of the Muslim conquerors in the Iberian Peninsula, they were widely used for falconry. The dog found dead prey and stopped there, waiting for the owner. This principle of hunting, sometimes slightly modified (the dog carefully brings the game to its owner in its mouth) is still used today, although firearms have long been used instead of falcons.
