Summary
About Auvergne Pointer (Braque d'Auvergne)
Medium French pointing dog with black‑and‑white “ink splash” coat, calm yet athletic. Sensitive, affectionate and people‑oriented, it bonds closely with its family. A versatile hunter needing 1.5–2 hours of daily activity, it is rare outside France but valued for its rustic, working character.
About Broholmer
The Broholmer is a large, calm Danish mastiff-type guardian, devoted to its family and home. Steady, watchful, and typically gentle, it needs moderate exercise, mental stimulation, and close companionship. Still rare outside Scandinavia, breeding emphasizes health and stable temperament.
