[QUOTE="Petras, post: 211265, member: 216"] If you want an all around dog, get a wirehair. My wirehair points and the couple times I have waterfowl hunted the last couple years she has had no problem at all swimming out for retrieves. Very little training involved with her also. Pretty much just the basics... sit, stay, come, heel, whoa, and leave it is pretty much all I've worked with her on and she does very well. I will say this, if I'm going upland bird hunting it helps to let her out a mile or two away from the spot I plan on hunting so she can burn off a bit of energy. After that she is very good. I should also add that if you get a wirehair, make sure to look at pics of previous litters to make sure they are of the ugly dog type. My wirehair looks like a shorthair. In fact I've never had anyone say, "that's a beautiful wirehair", they always call her a shorthair. [/QUOTE]
