Yesterday I posted an image and asked visitors to guess the breed of dog that I photographed.  Here’s the image:  http://betsydallasphoto.com/WordPressNew/?p=5335  How many of you were correct?  This is a Wirehaired Pointing Griffon.  Very close looking to a German Wirehaired Pointer, but in reading about both breeds, I learned that yellow eyes in the GWP are not desirable.  This dog has beautiful yellow eyes, characteristic of the Wirehaired Pointing Griffon.  This breed has been called “the 4-wheel drive of hunting dogs” because they enter briars and underbrush without hesitation.  They are pointers in the field and retrievers in the water.  Such a sweet look, don’t you think?
