A Pointer home built for the breed you love
What started as a small personal project in 1998 has become the UK’s most complete digital archive for Pointers. Today, Ledgands welcomes over one hundred thousand unique visitors each month – breeders tracing bloodlines, exhibitors checking show results, and owners discovering the stories behind their dogs.
Every page, every pedigree, every photograph is part of a larger narrative. The story of a breed shaped by generations of dedication. Ledgands’ keeps the Pointer story alive – one shared memory, one new litter, one show result at a time.
What makes Ledgands unique and globally leading?
Ledgands connects the past, present and future of the Pointer breed in one place.
Ledgands exists to preserve and celebrate the entire breed. It brings together bloodlines, photographs, championship show records, historical material and pedigrees spanning generations, allowing visitors to explore not just individual dogs but the wider story of how the breed has evolved.
For breeders, it is a valuable research resource. For exhibitors, it is a record of achievement and breed history. For owners, it is a chance to discover the heritage behind their dogs. For newcomers, it is an opportunity to learn from decades of accumulated knowledge. Few breed websites offer such a depth of information, and fewer still have built it over so many years with such a singular focus.
Ledgands is not driven by trends or short-term content. It is a permanent record of a breed and the people who have dedicated their lives to it. The database continues to grow, the archive continues to expand, and the stories behind the pedigrees continue to be preserved for future generations.
In an online world where information can disappear overnight, Ledgands provides something increasingly rare – continuity. It protects the knowledge, achievements and memories that have helped shape the Pointer breed for more than two centuries and makes them freely accessible to enthusiasts around the world.
Powered by passion
Ledgands has never been commercial, not will it ever be! Ledgands has always been a labour of love. No adverts. No subscriptions. No paywalls. Just a commitment to preserving the heritage, history and future of the Pointer breed.
Everything you see here exists because generations of Pointer enthusiasts have shared photographs, pedigrees, memories and knowledge. We continue to maintain and develop the site because we believe the Pointer’s story deserves to be recorded, protected and shared.
While Ledgands is freely accessible on a non-commercial basis, it represents thousands of hours of dedicated work and remains a resource that deserves respect. It is our gift to the breed, the community and the generations of Pointer lovers still to come.

Where Ledgands began…
Every journey has a beginning, and ours started with three unforgettable dogs who shaped the heart of Ledgands:
- Reebok: Our first dog, and the one who introduced us to the world of obedience and showing.
- Anakin: Our first Pointer, whose extraordinary head and expression became known worldwide.
- China: Our foundation bitch and the cherished mother of our multi‑international champion, Nemo.
These dogs didn’t just inspire a website, they inspired a lifelong devotion to the breed.
