The focus at that time was mostly on the show ring. The group is striving to protect the breed standard, type and purpose for which these dogs were bred for whilst filling the gap for training and working events to see the breed return to its working origins in the UK. This is a vigorous, robust dog of workmanlike, natural appearance.  It's a medium size dog with a harsh coat.  It should have a well-developed moustache and beard which gives it its characteristic expression of firmness and assurance. The coat colour should be steel grey with liver brown patches, solid liver, liver roan, liver brown with white hairs. Dogs are 55-60 cms and Bitches 50-55 cms "  They can be found at Korthals Griffons UK Working Group -https://www.facebook.com/groups/2341603806135829 https://www.instagram.com/korthalsgriffonuk Instagram https://www.instagram.com/the_outdoor_gibbon/
