Wirehaired Pointing Griffon Puppies Available! Champion Lineage

1/12

Meet Idaho Outback Griffons. Elliott and Christy Owen is from Idaho and breeds Wirehaired Pointing Griffons. We live on a little acreage in the farmlands of Idaho. We are a big, active, hunting oriented family with animals, and always bird dogs. We have been owned by English Pointers, Setters and GSHs. Each earned a place in our hearts. Our ultimate bird dog would be an instinctual hunter, trainable, and mostly a great family dog and connected companion. Now we can share our secret we found the package deal in the funny Griffon. Our philosophy is to produce a puppy at the height of his potential. We start by carefully selecting our breeding stock. I use AKC registered, health screened, tested dogs, that perfectly fall within AKC standards, that gives us the best chance to produce a healthy, long lived dog. Our second goal is to raise our dogs like a house hold pet as well as a hunting companion and a best friend for my children and grand children. When I select a potential breeding animal I am looking for the joyous attitude Griffons are famous for, not too meek not to dominant. You will not see a rows of kennels with Griffons in them at my place. Our dogs are part of our household. We Co-Own with friends, so other dogs in our breeding program have their own family life. All the puppies are raised off my kitchen and are handled from day one. There was a great study done by the monks who raise quality German Shepherds. They discovered techniques all of which involve early handling and human interaction. They were able to create more adjusted and trainable adult animals. So once they begin crawling about they are underfoot, placed all day in the center of the action where even a crowd can't get ignored. Weather permitting they are kenneled at night and taught about grass or paper in the house. I love vari-kennels they are excellent as their dog den and as a tool in house training and transporting. We start introducing them at an early age to water, wings, and all sorts of exploring. I begin to take them on adventure walks at 4- 5 weeks of age, exposing them to problem solving, and confidence building experiences. Lastly I want to retain and selectively breed for natural versatile hunting abilities. All of the dogs we retain for potential breeding animals range tight, hunt hard, naturally point, and honor, love water, and retrieve willingly. We are looking for animals that do all this because that is what their owners are doing..... Not just because they are hunting machines. We are heart approved breeders with AKC which means that all of our breeding animals are screened prior to breeding. OFA Hips, OFA Elbows and OFA Thyroid, CERF tested, will always be available to verify, as good or better, or normal. All results are published for public view. We also do not breed any animals with untestable issues like allergies, mouth or eyelid issues. Our breeders are perfect specimens of the breed. We love and encourage visitors to our place and enjoy talking about Griffons to inexperienced or experienced alike. AKC proudly supports dedicated and responsible breeders. We encourage all prospective puppy owners to do their research and be prepared with questions to ask the breeder. Make sure you are not only choosing the right breed for you, but also that you’re getting it from the right individual.
