Our wirehairs, Chara with Colby the pup. |
We are down to two dogs in the house. After living with three
for so long the place feels sort of empty. This past spring we had to put our
high strung Vizsla down. The hole that she left behind is larger than her diminutive
size. She may have been the runt of the litter, but she rose to be queen of the
castle here.
Sally, my virtual wife, has always had a soft spot for German
shorthaired pointers, and, seeing that I picked the last dog, a German
wirehair, it is her turn. She did a lot of research and has picked a kennel, one
with a hunting background because that is important to us. We want a dog that
will be at home in the rugged terrain of northern New England, and that is
where this pup will be born.

So now the mom has been bred and the wait begins.
