The hardworking Wirehaired Pointing Griffon, renowned as the 'supreme gundog,' is known for the harsh, low-shedding coat the breed is named for. Outgoing, eager, and quick-witted, Griffs are incomparable in the field and loving at home.
Do Wirehaired Pointing Griffon shed a lot?
Though Wirehaired Pointing Griffons are a low-shedding breed, their coats require regular maintenance. Weekly brushing is necessary, and 'stripping' of the coat may be recommended to remove old hair.
Are Wirehaired Pointing Griffon dogs hypoallergenic?
Yes, but probably less than any other canine. The Wirehaired Pointing Griffon shedding levels are remarkably low — making them one of the best hypoallergenic pooches. Furthermore, they produce little dander — and the small amount that is shed will remain trapped in the wiry coat of the Pointing Griffon.
