German Wirehaired Pointers Today (Book of the Breed Series)

Summary: An Excellent Breed Owner's Handbook
Review: Sharon's book covers everything the GWP owner would like to know, from the basics of new puppy questions to being a resource for breeders. I especially like being able to see pictures of our breed's foundation sires and dams.

It's probably time for this book to be updated as there are several top kennels and dogs to be considered today.

This book is currently considered "the breed book." I have recommended this book to all my puppy buyers to trace their pup's ancestors, including pictures, what fun!

Summary: Great book for history of the breed worldwide
Review: This book is a very thorough examination of the breeds history and origin. Also gives particular attention to some of the great GWP's in the past that contributed to making this the excellent dog that it is today. A good read for anyone who is familiar with the breed and interested in competing in the ring or the field with thier dog.

Summary: Excellent, from up-bringing to showing & training!
Review: This is a great book, focusing specifically on the breed. It has information on all aspects of owning a German wire-haired pointer (and indeed a lot of information on general dog owning), from choosing a puppy through up-bringing, showing,training and working. It doesn't, however, assume that you will show or work your dog, so it is also good for people who simply want a family pet. Having bought my puppy from Sharon, I know that she is extremely knowledgeable about the breed.
