Cesky Terrier and Cesky Terrier pictures
The Cesky Terrier is a small but sturdy, rectangular terrier with
short legs, drop-ears, long coat and a big heart. Calm, responsive
and devoted, the Cesky makes a wonderful family pet in a wide range
of living situations. The Cesky is less aggressive and independent,
and more eager to please, than the typical terrier. The Cesky Terrier
has a relatively short and well-documented history. The breed was
developed by Frantisek Horák, a geneticist in the Czech Republic,
by crossing a Sealyham Terrier and Scottish Terrier. His aim was
to develop a light, short-legged, drop eared, hunting terrier that
was easy to groom and train, could hunt fox and badgers in groups,
and could "go to ground" and fit in burrows too small
for it’s parent breeds. The Cesky can be very protective of its
family and so makes a great watch-dog.
