The Korthals Griffon is classified by The Royal Kennel Club as a large breed, typically weighing 23–27 kg as an adult.

What this means for your Korthals Griffon
Hip dysplasia is worth screening for given the breed's active working build, though the Korthals Griffon is generally considered hardy given its versatile working heritage. Eyelid conditions such as entropion are also occasionally reported.
The wiry, weatherproof coat needs periodic hand-stripping rather than regular clipping to maintain its texture throughout your dog's life.
When is a Korthals Griffon considered a senior?
Under The Royal Kennel Club's size-adjusted guidance, large breeds like the Korthals Griffon are generally considered senior from around 5 dog years old.
