This is a generally healthy breed with a 12-15 year lifespan, though hip dysplasia and progressive retinal atrophy do occur. Cataracts are notably more common in this breed than in many others — a specific inherited gene variant causing juvenile cataracts has been identified in Wirehaired Pointing Griffon family lines.
A quality diet matched to this breed's genuinely active, working-dog lifestyle.
The wiry double coat needs hand-stripping a couple of times a year to maintain its texture, plus regular brushing; the facial furnishings need occasional trimming.
Highly trainable and eager to work closely with their handler, Griffons do well with positive reinforcement and need genuine daily exercise given their sporting-dog background.
The Wirehaired Pointing Griffon was developed in the 1870s by Dutch breeder Eduard Korthals, who crossed German Griffons, French and German Pointers, Setters, and Spaniels to create a versatile, close-working gundog with a coat tough enough for thick cover and cold water. Still called the "Korthals Griffon" in France and Quebec, the breed was built to be an all-purpose hunting companion able to point, retrieve, and work both land and water.
Wirehaired Pointing Griffons are known for a close, affectionate bond with their people — bred to live and hunt in close partnership with a handler rather than working at a distance, which shapes the breed's genuinely people-oriented temperament today.
