German Wirehair Pointers will track and maintain a strong point while retrieving to hand with a soft mouth. As a hunting companion, this particular breed is considered a “highly trainable gun dog”. although the Wirehair is bred for upland game, they can also prove to be great water dogs. This is achieved by exposing these amazing hunting dogs to water at a young age, developing their natural ability to retrieve waterfowl.
We do our best to keep a line of Wirehairs free of hereditary defects. One of the key components to this is obtaining different lines on a regular basis. Our strategy has been buying into new stud lines every two years. We guarantee our dogs to be free of any hereditary defects up to two years of age. Should any issues arise, we will exchange or work out a satisfactory solution with you.
Besides being great hunting dogs, Funks German Wirehair Pointers will also easily become one of your family! Our dogs are introduced to children at a young age which encourages them to become well socialized and allows them to develop a mild temperament.
Located in central Minnesota, we have many satisfied customers throughout the United States. Read some of the feedback we have received here.
We gladly invite you to contact us with any questions you may have.

Jeff says “Berta is doing good likely better than the trainer. Started last season with a late-September prairie-chicken, sharptail hunt in South Dakota then continued the Minnesota pheasant season. She showed improvement with every hunt. I was a little concerned at first about the point and hold but she was very good at that by…
