Dylis is a German Wirehaired Pointer, who is almost three years old. She likes walking anywhere where there’s the scent of rabbits and pheasants, and she can get some off lead running. She has a variety of toys but will play will anything as long as owner Helen’s joining in the fun. She’s partial to a bit of sausage.
