My first Wirehair was diagnosed when he was about two. Took a pill every day until he passed at 13. Incredible grouse dog and defender of his kingdom. He met my wife to be when he was four. Put his head in her lap and claimed her. If you drove on the place he would sit between her and lightning rod or barn painters we were plagued with. Or the JW [bleep]. She always was pleasant but our dog was not. He might have a low growl to back her up. 85 pound bad ass that the kid’s could do anything too and he loved it. We have been blessed with three of those incredible dogs.
