The HPR group embraces many popular and beautiful breeds of gundog.
HPR is an abréviation of Hunt Point Retrieve; the three roles these versatile dogs have been bred to carry out.

Traditionally, HPR breeds were all docked, but this is no longer permitted unless the dog has been bred specifically for work in the shooting field
