GNA Breeding Program

All dogs used in the VDD/GNA breeding program must meet certain standards in natural hunting ability, temperament, and coat and conformation. The Deutsch-Drahthaar Breed Standard represents the practical aspects of conformation and coat.

All puppies whelped in Group North America are registered with VDD Germany, receive official VDD pedigrees (Ahnentafel) and registration numbers, and are tattooed with that registration number in their right ear before they leave the breeder’s kennel. Breeders’ kennels also must be registered and all VDD breeding regulations must be followed. In addition, Group North America has a progressive hip dysplasia program coordinated with the VDD in Germany.

The Deutsch-Drahthaar has been selectively bred for versatile hunting for more than 110 years. Over a hundred years of testing inherited natural abilities, such as nose, search, pointing, tracking, cooperation, waterlove, retrieving, and temperament has been used to develop the breeding stock from which all Deutsch-Drahthaar are whelped.

Following is a list (by state) of kennels/breeders that have registered with VDD/GNA. VDD/GNA does not endorse any specific breeder/kennel,  nor offer any guarantees. Just because a kennel is listed here,  doesn’t mean that the kennel is currently producing litters.  Many people register a kennel to reserve a name for future litters, are currently between litters, or have bred in the past and are no longer active in breeding.
