Gentlemen, I give you from an earlier age "Slut" the pointer pig, a somewhat grainy pic (!) from 1805.
Quote:
William Barker Daniels "Rural Sports" tells us that she was called Slut in consequence of soiling herself in a Bog. She lived wild but her owner taught her to act like a pointer dog and she accompanied him on his hunting expeditions and would point and retrieve as well as a dog. Slut was slaughtered when she was ten years old, which Daniel said was animal murder.
Not sure about the gun, but I bet that was a fun day out .....
