I'm looking for a hunting partner. Historically I've been a waterfowl hunter and have hunted over a number of great retrievers. I'm wanting to get into the upland game and am looking at dog options. I've hunted over a German wire hair in the past that was a phenomenal pointer and would swim to retrieve with the best of them. Based on this experience alone I'm leaning towards a wire hair, but was hoping for some input. I will most likely be looking to purchase a started pup as I don't have much experience training dogs and no upland training experience. Any info on breeds, breeders, or trainers would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
