I have never heard of this breed before but she looks just like the German Shorthaired Pointer that I grew up with except for the hairy muzzel. Lovely dog and I'll bet a great field dog too.
It is virtually the same breed. In fact, I think deutsch drahthaar is German for German shorthair. A versatile hunting dog, he will point, retrieve on land or water, and blood track. We're busy training him although most of it is just giving purpose to the instincts.
