It is funny how the instincts of different breeds of dogs define them. Our dog, an English Pointer, will take any opportunity to hunt each and every small, fast animal he comes across, while a Labrador Retriever will wildly throw herself into the harbor just to retrieve a lowly tennis ball. Regardless, different breeds of dogs have innate instincts that define them. This Labrador, Brie, was a retrieving machine jumping over our dog while he stalked around the dock hunting fish.
