Is there a way I can buy a puppy from them directly? Because I'm looking to get a GWP and their dogs look beautiful.

Владимир Василев be careful with them labeling illnesses as parvovirus. With my Alex he had his first parvovirus shot and he was puking badly one night (a week later) and we took him to an ER vet and the vet labeled him as having parvovirus (the shot gives the test a false positive if given shortly after receiving the shot) and racked up a huge bill and I took him to my normal vet the following morning and after serval tests it turned out he was allergic to his food and never had parvovirus.

Според теб стават ли за домашни любимци? Харесва ми много породата, но не съм ловец, живея в града. Дали ще е щастливо в апартамент, но с много разходки и игри? Днес видях едно такова куче, вързано пред магазин, беше страшно лигаво, но гледаше и много умно същевременно

Just like Rona, the vax for parvo likely is what gave it to him...sorry

It's the same breed...

@@MybeautifulandamazingPrincess It maybe for the same family but it's like comparing apples to JDAM missles when it comes to how differently they are trained and bred

do they make good guard dogs

Where's your area?

How does your Wirehair do with all the crowds and other dogs (who may not always be under control)? I'm also living in the city and trying to find an active dog, and this is one of my main concerns, with most working breeds having a tendency to easily become reactive...

My Wirehair is an intact male, he is amazing with other dogs unless another male is aggressive towards him, I need to be observant. Has not had a fight though and is currently 5 years old. We have been charged by off lead large dogs when I bike with him, I stop and face the other dog, have not had an instance where there has been a problem, they usually approach, they sniff and all has been well. When he is in run mode while I bike he does not even look at other dogs, key is exercise and they are a great breed to do that with. He adores children (although I do not have kids), is very socialble and is used to traffic and has no issues in crowds, etc. He listens really well and learns fast, very intelligent, but can be distracted by cats and small animals. For me it is either a GWP or a GSP, however, if you are looking for slightly smaller and a little easier to handle when under 3yrs old, a pointing Griffon might be a breed for you to consider as well.

Thanks, your dog sounds awesome, but I will look into the pointing Griffon too. There are so many breeds, it's so hard to decide!

Yes he is and there certainly are many breeds to chose from, take your time, plan and make sure you are ready. Obedience class when they are puppies and much more, invest the time, all will pay off. Visit the breeder and check out the parents too. I put my deposit down before the breeding took place and only after I took the time to visit the breeder and my dogs sire and dam, that sold me on feeling comfortable and assured me I would have the odds on my side. I have shown my dog too, as I did my former GSP's in the past, in my opinion very good for socializing a dog, teaches a dog good behaviour under plenty of distraction. Good luck with your search, all the best!

I completely agree! I always take mine into forests or fields!

Its perfectly fine i have an english pointer in the desert as long as they have water shade and game to hunt your good

yes and the fact that they were bred for colder climates and there in the desert

Peter Davis not a lot of difference. DDs are registered with the VDD rather than the AKC, so they are not eligible for competition in AKC dog shows. Very little difference in physical characteristics. AKC allows white but penalizes black coat GWPs, wrt conformity, while VDD allows black, but rejects solid white patches larger than 3” (tick coat is the correct coat) for breeding qualification (there is no score penalty, as they aren’t a show breed, but an incorrect coat would be disqualified for breeding). Other than that DDs must be field tested before qualifying for breeding, while any two registered GWPs can be bred and produce a brood that qualifies for registration as GWP.

LOL! You guys sure do!

Um. We helped with both World Wars.

Kameo Hosley Lemme give you a hint: He’s not American

Lol could have one ww2 if u didn't fuck with Russia lol

Germanic dog breeds are usually more versatile than breeds from Great Britain. I have a German Short hair pointer who will push out rabbits, For some reason she won't point them, plus point and retrieve game birds. She will even sit and retrieve doves.Any vermin didn't live long, groundhogs rats and voles were killed as soon as she saw them She also was very protective of my wife and son. More than once her bared teeth and the growl from deep in her chest made people think twice about it. Sadly she is now 14 and has slowed down to where she sleeps most of the time.

different breed...

Different breed.

A heat wave in northern England would be anything over 18c lol

Shorthair. No question.

GWP and Drahthaar are one and the same... Jesus.

I agree, I wish we had higher standards in America with all breeds. Too many backyard breeders and puppy mills churning out dogs strictly for money because they are "papered". In my opinion, this is why we have so many issues with certain breeds like labs and goldens.

Everyone's got a gimmick. This post is demonstrably false. As it happens., German-imported wirehairs (German term Drahthaar) are AKC registerable as wirehairs and many are. They don't do very well in competition here. Slow old-style non-stylish meat dogs. They're ok. You can do better with a well-selected regular wirehair of US bloodlines..

@@coveyssteve Drahthaars aren't bred for competition, they're bred for hunting and tracking. They have testing when the dog is younger. Tests to qualify for breeding.

Nintendogs lover 123 Do the research on both breeds first. If you like one better than the other then get that one.

I've owned both at different times, have my first wirehair now...they are both such great breeds it doesn't matter, as others have mentioned just go with the one that appeals to you most. I know what I'm doing in the future, getting one of each!

I have a longhaired bundle of fun..and my house has a layer of fur everywhere...FYI these shed like crazy.

Markus Daxamouli that’s a rarity. At least vs a shorthair.

Yes! My GWP is a better hiker than I am and will sit and watch me fish all day! Sometimes he even picks them up for me

Noah Belt thats awesome! Im so glad to hear that! Im excited to Train and Care for one !!

Similar. Depending on breeding, you can find a particular Pudelpointer that is more like a typical GWP, or vice versa. PPs are *cough* GENERALLY felt to be less energy in the house. Somewhat less aggressive, but that is a general stereotype. They’re quite close cousins, the GWP having been bred from PPs. Both are fantastic versatile breeds.

Of course the PP is generally field tested to qualify for breeding, like the DD, rather than the GWP, which is a little more lax in breeding qualification (basically as long as the sire and dam are both registered GWPs, they’re good to breed)

Both are same dog

Its like jagdterrier and german hunting terrier both are same

@@ghozisyaifullah254 Got it. My drath is almost 1 yo, but I have no clue with hunting breeds. I'm used to service dogs.

@@ARokanten you can train them for baying , pointer , retriever , catchdog

No, they don't live there. That was the site of AKC field trials for a number of hunting and pointing breeds. It's in the Mojave Desert, CA, near the towns of Mojave, Boron, and California City.
