Wirehaired Pointing Griffon Breeds Care and Food Suplemen

The Wirehaired Pointing Griffon originated in Holland and then developed further in France. Holland, now known as The Kingdom of the Netherlands, is a small European coastal country, north of France and east of Germany. Its highest elevation is 1000 feet and its lowest elevation is 20 feet below sea level. Holland's extremely fertile land and extremely wet climate produced a breed of dog that has one of the most unique coat fibers found in the canine family. This breed's coat, though relatively short, insulates the dog's body better than many fine textured long double coats found in the Nordic Spitz breeds.

Yet this coat requires stripping and the texture is like that found in many terrier breeds from other climates. This coat, found only on the Wirehaired Pointing Griffon, is one way this breed is different from other breeds of canines. The differences among this breed and others also extend to its nutritional requirements.Native food supplies found in their original coastal and lowland environment would have been oats, potato, rye, sugar beets, and wheat. Meats were from domesticated poultry, dairy cattle, and ocean fish of the North Sea.

For the Wirehaired Pointing Griffon I recommend foods that contain ocean fish, poultry, and dairy products blended with potato, oats, and sugar beet. I also recommend that you avoid feeding yellow corn, avocado, soy bean meal, or horse meat to this breed.
