Versorging

Temperament

Friendly, devoted and cooperative, often playful and a bit clownish. Usually good with children and other dogs.

Oefening

Needs one to two hours of activity daily. Field work, retrieving, swimming, tracking and hiking suit it.

Versorging

Brush weekly and hand-strip dead hair a few times a year. Sheds little; keep the beard clean.

Opleiding

Eager to please and responsive to positive training. Usually easier to handle than wider-ranging pointers.

Gesondheid

Hip dysplasia and eyelid problems such as entropion are the main known concerns. Ask the breeder for hip, elbow and eye results of the parents.

Oor die ras

The Korthals Griffon was created in the late 19th century by Eduard Karel Korthals, a Dutch breeder who did much of his work in Germany and France. He aimed for a methodical, close-working gundog with a harsh coat that could point and retrieve in water and thick cover. France holds the breed's FCI patronage.

It is affectionate, sociable and keen to work with its handler rather than range far. At home it is usually calm and cheerful. Its rough coat sheds little but needs some care, and its energy calls for daily outdoor activity.

Het jy geweet?

Its creator Eduard Korthals was Dutch, yet the breed is under French patronage because it became established in France.
