📜History | The origin of the breed can be traced back to around 1710 when Morten Bak in Glenstrup established a pure breed of piebald white and brown dogs called Bakhounds or Old Danish Pointing Dogs. The breed has connections to gypsy dogs and local farm dogs, which have contributed to its lineage. |
