The german pointer does more than that. If you search the internet you'll see he can track a wide range of animals, even deer. As far as I remember I definitely seen a pointer in action (I don't know if it was a german pointer) against foxes and rabbits. That day foxes were hunted for spreading rabies while the rabbits were hunted for fun :).
I'm thinking of the English Pointer. Is that the German Pointer in the game? I haven't looked to see.

I'm not a fan of letting a dog do what the hunter should be doing. Flushing and retrieving birds if fine. In my state that's all you can use a dog for anyway. So, i'm not alone in my thinking.

Guys.......If the hunt is hard. It's much more rewarding. Don't look for ways to make it easier. It's why I never do anything to bring my levels up. If I can get a kill at level 1. Why do I need to raise my levels? Why do you?

The only way to tell which species within a selected category your pointer is actually tracking is to check tracks that are on the path your dog is taking. Yes, it's a pain when hunting rabbits in Val des Bois and he's continually tracking those confounded Grouse. However; I find most hunting reserves create very little issues.
