About Slovakian Wirehaired Pointer Puppies, Breeders & DogFacts
The Slovakian Wirehaired Pointer, developed in Slovakia during the mid 20th century by crossing the Weimaraner, German Wirehaired Pointer, and Czesky Fousek, is a versatile hunting breed in the AKC Foundation Stock Service created to point, retrieve, and track in varied terrain. Standing 22-27 inches tall and weighing 55-77 pounds, this athletic gundog sports a harsh, coarse wire coat in shades of gray or gray roan with a pronounced beard and eyebrows, requiring weekly brushing and periodic hand stripping to maintain texture. Loyal, intelligent, and steady, they bond closely with family and suit active homes that can provide vigorous daily exercise, hunting outlets, or canine sports. Early socialization and consistent training bring out their biddable, eager to please nature.
