The AWPGA is a club for the Wirehaired Pointing Griffon enthusiast.
We are the AKC parent club for the breed and as such are focused on all aspects of our griffon's lives. You will find information on history, hunting, conformation, performance events, health and genetics, and the club itself on these pages. We are a growing club and are always looking to improve ourselves in regards to the club and in protecting the breed we love so much.
You may find yourself becoming a Griffon fanatic just like US!
If a Griffon has just joined your home, are considering getting a Griffon or would like to find out more about this breed you've come to the right place!
