Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Anyone else own a German Wirehair Pointer?

Last year I decided to get my bird dog, a German wirehair pointer. Plan was to get a male first from proven hunters, train him up, and then get a female and do the same. Besides being great bird dogs, they can swim like fish with their web feet, and hardly shed at all. The wire coat really protects them from the northern Michigan brush. So far, my male has been excellent. Obeys commands, holds point, and mostly brings back the bird. Has a nose like a blood hound. All at 1.5 years old. The seven month female goes to school next month, but I have been working with her already.
