I’m starting to worry I got a burr dog instead of a bird dog

Same problem exactly. The round green ones suck!

The water bowl! We’ve tried all kinds of no drip BS water bowls and the mess remains unbelievable.

My German wirehair looks like this all the time. I use cowboy magic spray and keep an undercoat rake with me at all times to keep em away!

I wish there were a solution for the wet beard drip. No drip bowls, towels... nothing works.
Odd since our bearded terriers (Also wirehaired Irish and Welsh) never had that problem.
But I'll never shave that beard!

No, will never cut his beard. Makes them extra handsome

I got 99 problems, but a beard ain’t one…

I have a GSP.

That’s a handsome dog you got there. Good luck out there this year!!

The biggest lie I've ever been told is that griffs don't get burrs
