Wirehaired Pointing Griffon
Devoted. friendly. Yours.
Nobody warns you that a Wirehaired Pointing Griffon will ruin every other dog breed for you forever. They walk into your life looking like a scruffy professor who moonlights as an Olympic athlete, and within a week you're completely, irreversibly done for.

The Wirehaired Pointing Griffon experience
You know you're a Wirehaired Pointing Griffon owner when...
●The full-body lean, not a casual lean, a 55-pound commitment to pressing every square inch of themselves against your leg while you're trying to walk.
●That face. Those eyebrows. The permanent expression of a philosophy professor who's deeply concerned about your life choices but loves you anyway.
●The pointing instinct kicking in at the worst possible moments, birds at the park, butterflies in the yard, a plastic bag blowing across the parking lot.
●Watching them go from couch potato to elite athlete in 0. seconds flat when they hear the word 'outside' or the jingle of a leash.
●The coat maintenance denial, telling yourself 'it's a low-maintenance coat' while you're picking burrs out of their beard for the third time this week.
