It all depends on where your puppy comes from
The German Wirehaired Pointer is preferably acquired from a LOF-registered breeder who specifies the intended use (hunting, companion or show), presents the parents and the screening tests. Adoption remains rare but possible for an adult.

A price that seems too good to be true?
- A pointing dog needs real exercise: don't buy only for aesthetics.
- Ask for the breeders' screening tests and the socialization conditions.
- A very low price without documents should raise suspicion of a poorly monitored breeding operation.
