On-line Time Machine

Just about every month, I stumble upon yet another gold mine of on-line archives providing (usually) free access to thousands of old magazines, books, and film footage.  Last week, I came across some truly fascinating clips of pointing dogs.

Here is a short film from Scotland that shows just how big some of the Pointer and Setter kennels had become by the 1930s.

In this short clip, we see some of the last remaining specimens  of the Griffon Boulet, a pointing breed that is now extinct. I wrote about the Griffon Boulet previously here.

And finally, here is a piece about Pointers and Setters  being trained and running in trials on the Canadian prairies.
