The Wirehaired Pointer's whole point is a harsh, water-repellent wiry outer coat over a dense undercoat, kept correct by hand-stripping rather than clipping, which softens the texture. The facial furnishings, the beard and eyebrows, collect debris and need combing. Pluck and tidy the furnishings, strip the body a few times a year, and check the ears.
