	I think the pointing gene is present throughout dog populations, and in wolves, etc., also. It signals the other canines in the pack to stop running around like beagles and to check "this" out and make a plan. We had an Irish setter who, in spite of champion parents, seemed to lack the pointing gene. She acted like a goddam greyhound, and would run around flushing pheasants far out of range of my 20 gauge. Then we got a dog who was half pointer, half English setter. She was an instinctive searcher and pointer, and would have won me many a bird if that jackass Irish didn't insist on coming along every time.
