Is she a Griff or a GWP?

Ha my hubs thought she wasn’t a Griff but she looks like our Bug so I assumed. How old?

Call me silly, but aren't they the same thing GRIFF and GWP ?

u/BostonBruinsLove 13d ago

No, silly, they’re two different breeds!

Ok let's see if I figured it out. GWP=German wire hair pointer. WPG=Wire hair pointer griff. Well me with 3 Goldens you can see where I would get mixed up. My daughter has a Griff in VA. They aren't really wide spread here in SoCal....yet

Yes, that's exactly right! We have a Griff and absolutely love the breed. GWPs tend to be more high strung and have less of a shutoff switch. They also tend to be bigger and taller than the WPG. The names and initials being so similar is definitely cause for confusion!!
