Photographed in his loungeroom in Hahndorf, South Australia, on 16 May 2025, 96-year-old Des Delaine sits quietly with the last three Pointers of his beloved Turnix line. Surrounded by trophies and memories, the image reveals the deep, unspoken bond between a man and the dogs who have been his lifelong companions. A breeder and judge devoted to the Pointer since childhood, Des now faces the end of his breeding journey, capturing a moment of love, loyalty, and shared history.
