    1. GWP dude, the breed is being worked on hard here with good matings with strong bloodlines. This particular dog (Brutus) is the NZ novice field champ and belongs to a mate of mine who lives and breathes dog work. I'm getting quite enthusiatic about GWPs :)

    2. ... hey bro, bit of research and I can see what I know as a GWP is what you know as a drathaar. I stand corrected! :)

    3. Essentially (at least genetically) they are the same dog. Registration and testing differeniate the two. Whether Drahthaar or GWP they are awesome dogs. Hope to see more pics in soon. I have to wait until Sept til I can get out so I will have to just live vicariously through your blog until then.

  2. Snuffit, great photos, can we take you will still do your usual full run down of opening in the swamp when you get chance?

    Your opening accounts are a good historical record of how things went in the swamp year by year.
