Anyone looking for a Drahthaar?

[JLS]

Shoot me a PM. Serious inquiries only. Two different breeders I know each have one male available. Only for folks willing to test and hunt the hell out of their dog.

Next spring for me. Make sure to post a pic of your pup when you pick it up.

Wanting, but not ready for the commitment.

I want one bad.

It would be wrong for me to get one this time of the year

I ve been hunting with a buddy who has one that is now three.

She is a killer.

You often hear of a dog resembling their owner. No disrespect meant, but this pic is ugh-worthy!

I’m not her owner… more like her uncle.

So they wouldn't sell to someone who's just willing to hunt the hell outa the dog? Must be interested in testing? I'm not in the market yet, just curious.

The testing is a pretty important component for serious breeders. It's not hard, and it also serves a very utilitarian purpose in getting your dog where it should be for hunting. It tells the breeders which genetics and lineages work for a truly versatile dog.

Some breeders will sell to folks even if they don't plan to test. Others won't. One of the pups is on the east coast, and the breeder has turned down three people so far who wanted to buy him.

thank you - the testing is an important component of the breed and the future of the breed - and as you mentioned, the testing supports their hunt readiness

Love my drahthaars

Great, another rabbit hole I'll be going down now of ways to spend more money.

I think I would get in trouble with another dog. 2 dogs and 2 cats is enough right now.

The draht could help with your cat problem!

(In all honesty some are totally fine with cats).
