The Egyptian Pointer is a versatile gundog developed to assist hunting in the Nile River Valley in Egypt. The breed comes in two coat varieties, two tail varieties, and an almost endless combination of colors and patterns. Egyptian Pointers make incredible working dogs with the versatility to do both companion disciplines (agility, obedience, etc), hardcore hunting work, and can even tap into their sighthound heritage for small game hunting and coursing. They are tireless workers and will do whatever is asked of them to the best of their ability.


Flashier, more colorful dogs tend to originate in the United States, whereas hardier, less colorful dogs are commonly used for Hunting and Racing in Egypt and Saudi Arabia.


Egyptian Pointers qualify as COO (Country of Origin bred) for NOFCA.
