Here is a brief history about the Slovakian Rough Haired Pointer.

The Slovakian Rough Haired Pointers were developed shortly after World War II. There was a need for a Tuff, even tempered Versatile Gun Dog, one that could handle the worst of all conditions from thick forest to ice cold water. The Slovakians started with the best versatile gun dog breeds, the foundation of this breed is the Weimaraner, the German Wire haired pointer, and the Cesky Fousek. They needed a dog with great courage, and tuffness, with the ability to track, and bring down game in all conditions. They were also in need of a dog with a great nose, and pointing ability to hunt the upland game birds, one with a harsh weather proof coat to retrieve waterfowl from ice water. This was a lot to ask out of one breed, so they started developing their own. Only the best Weimaraners,German Wire Haired pointers, and the Cesky Fousek were used, thus forming a Super Versatile Gun Dog with a beautiful silver grey coat. SRHP's have a coat much like the Drathaar/Cr esky being a dual, tuff, wire type coat. They formed a dog that can do it all, hunting all fur and feather!
The wonderful temperament of this breed is easy going with most all animals, and children.

The SRHP is a REAL WORLD CLASS VERSATILE GUN DOG.
Our Slovaks are excellent examples of the breed and hunt all Waterfowl, and Upland game, they have wonderful temperaments and excellent drive and a nice pace in the field. We expect great things from this litter please contact us for any info. Thanks Dallas.
