Wirehaired Pointing Griffon overview from an actual owner and trainer of wirehaired pointing griffons in Oxford, Mississippi, USA.

The gun dog supreme, Korthals Griffon, Russian Setter, Wirehaired Griffon, or even Chewbacca, this versatile hunting dog goes by a few names but serves one purpose: to dependably locate and point game, to track wounded or dead game, and to retrieve game on land and water (which is more than one purpose).

Griffs do this surprisingly well despite their laid back demeanor and soft expressive looks and disposition. I got my first Wirehaired Pointing Griffon (Dublin) in 2017 from Dubuque, Iowa breeders Michael and Mary Drapeau and am sold on this unusual gun dog.

I have worked with dozens of these versatile hunting dogs and am amazed at how well suited for families as pets yet effective as hunters they can be.

I post a lot of bird dog videos on this channel, mostly wirehaired pointing griffons, but occasionally German shorthaired pointers, German wirehaired pointers and (hopefully) gordon setters.

If you have a Wirehaired Pointing Griffon, let me know in the comments some quirky things that your griff does. I may feature it in a future video!

Thanks for watching.
