Ive just been given this link by a freind as i was asking question's about GWP's as im am on the look out for a good working type to work with Goshawk's during the winter month's and shooting during the warmer month's..
I look forward to reading through the forum when i get 2min's and gleaming a bit of constructive advice from the more experienced people out there who own and work this breed of dog..

Hi there

We've had Wirehairs for over 30 years now (i'm not quite that ancient though Laughing

) Primarily we showed them but now do work them extensively as well. I have also worked some of ours with Gos/Harris belonging to a good friend of mine so I have had some experience of doing this.

Feel free to ask away and between us all I'm sure someone will have the answer.

Regards

Thanks Annie Very Happy

Not sure if Plover still has puppies for sale as they may be much closer to "Millet" and they are sure from proven working lines Very Happy

Thank's for the replies lad's/lasses.. Wink

.. i dont know anything about working line's or which is good or bad..so if anyone can enlighten me thank's in advance..
As for sex im not too bothered dog or bitch but if i get a bitch it will be spayed as i dont want the hassle with my other dog's in the house plus it reduces the risk of mammory tumours and other womb infection's..
The kind of dog that is needed by me is from good strong working lines with a docked tail and dew clawed..
