Braque Dupuy

The Braque Dupuy, also written Dupuy Pointer, is a historical French pointing dog usually considered extinct as a standardized breed. It was associated with the nineteenth-century Dupuy family and was described as taller, racier, and more sighthound-like than many other French braques. Old accounts portray a fast open-country bird dog, commonly white with chestnut or orange markings, built for speed as well as scenting and pointing.

Modern use of the name is mostly archival, and anyone encountering a supposed Braque Dupuy puppy should treat the claim with care. It may refer to a recreation project, a regional pointing-dog cross, or a misapplied historical label rather than a registry-recognized population. For researchers and breed historians, the Braque Dupuy is useful as part of the broader story of French gundogs and the experimentation that shaped modern continental pointers.
