Bracco Italiano

The Bracco Italiano is one of Europe's oldest pointing breeds, with origins tracing back to at least the 4th or 5th century BCE in the Italian peninsula, where it was prized by nobility and huntsmen alike. This powerful yet elegant gundog is distinguished by its long, pendulous ears, sculpted head with pronounced occipital peak, and a distinctive high-stepping, almost trotting gait in the field. Gentle and affectionate by nature, the Bracco bonds deeply with its family and excels as both a versatile hunting companion and a devoted, even-tempered house dog.
