Breed History
Developed in the late 19th century by Dutch breeder Eduard Korthals, who worked in both Germany and France. His goal was to create the ultimate versatile walking-hunter's gun dog by crossing various pointing breeds, spaniels, and retrievers. Often called 'Korthals Griffon' in his honor.
