DRAHTHAAR ADDICTION
What It Is......
The Deutsch -Drahthaar (pronounced drot-like trot/har-like car)was created in Germany in the late 19th century by a small group of dedicated breeders who set out to develop a versatile hunting dog that would satisfy all aspects of German hunting in field, forest, and water. This group of breeders succeeded in creating a versatile hunting dog that took its traits from the best dogs of the existing coarse hair breeds, cross bred with the shorthair blood.
The Deutsch Drahthaar is a mid sized, substantial dog. The height at shoulder varies from 57 to 68 cm. The coat is wiry,and tightly fit with thick under wool. This coat provides optimal protection from external influences such as moisture,cold and heat,as well as thorns,brush and insects. The extended eyebrows and the typical beard give this dog his characteristic appearance. The breed has a variety of colorations from brown and white, black and white ticked with some solid patches adn solid brown with or without a white chest patch.
