Pointing???

When peppas outside on a chase she sometimes freeze in her place smelling the air and folding her front leg. It looks like she's concentraiting. Some guy with a Weimaraner told me even your staffy is pointing and mine won't!
I don't have a clue how gun dogs/ pointer actually point and what kind of dogs fold their front leg before going on a chase. Sounds familiar to anybody? I don't have a picture of pups doing it but ill try and catch it next time.

'Lady' does that as well

with her i reckon it's more she's sensed something ..
and is on-alert ready to move quickly in whatever direction
i don't think it's 'pointing' like gun dogs .. could be wrong though :-)

sash does the same when she's on alert mode,holds one of her front paws up,funny things

Daisy does that but I never knew what it was!

Bob lives with a Hungarian Vizsla and she has been pointing from an early age. Maybe she copied him? He also does this perimeter trot along the side fence / shrubs when coming up from the bottom of the garden. She does that too.

Loki does it as well!!

Katy does it too, she also stalks like a sheep dog when approaching her friends

Mka does this if theres a strange noise shes funny

Rocky also does the pointing thing usually when he has seen or heard something off in the distance that seems very interesting. I think it's quite common for most dogs to do this at some time.

Zeus does the same and I too, didn't know what it was lol

Yep, Madge does it too, seems like she's testing the air and maybe senses something different
