A Pudelpointer coat should be hand-stripped rather than clipped.
A wire coat is meant to be pulled out at the root once the hair is ready to release. Clippers cut it off part way instead, leaving the soft undercoat behind. The result is a coat that grows back limp and faded, and the weatherproof texture only returns after the hair is stripped out again.
