Wirehaired Pointing Griffon
About UNA
Really a very pretty girl. Her mother was a Grand Champion Confirmation show dog. Chic certified and full of life. UNA has a lineage of American Champions, Grand Champions and AKC Master Hunter Advanced titles just wants to play hard. Hi powered female in the field. She is one of the fastest and most agile female Griffons I have seen. She was dialed in and steady before she was one year old. Very enthusiastic super easy to train, in the field. A natural backer. Always up for anything. Great family dog at home, she is usually about four feet away and always ready for companionship. Still she has a great sense on independence and never a bother, accept when I'm putting on my boots. She is a total sweetheart. So lucky to have her.
