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 Manchester Terrier
Elegant, compact black-and-tan terrier, lively and intelligent with strong hunting instincts and high prey drive. Affectionate and cuddly with family but often reserved with strangers. Needs regular exercise, mental stimulation, positive training, and protection from cold due to its sleek coat.
