Often referred to as the "grey ghost" because of the distinctive color of its short, sleek coat, this breed is a graceful dog with aristocratic features. Bred for speed, good scenting ability, courage and intelligence, he remains an excellent game hunter and active participant in other dog sports.
A Look Back originally known as the Weimer Pointer (derived from the court that sponsored the breed), is a product of selective German breeding and comes from the same general stock as other German hunting breeds. It is believed to be a descendant of the Bloodhound and was originally used to hunt wolves, deer and bear. Over the years because of the rarity of bigger game in his surroundings, this breed adapted to become a bird dog and personal hunting companion.
