Wirehaired Slovakian Pointer (also known as the Slovakian Rough Haired Pointer).
Griseus is the first to own, and show a WSP in Sydney NSW. We begin to campaign Boris on the east coast from March 2022.
A bit about the breed:
Weimaraners are the foundation with a mix of rough coated breeds.
The Slovak rough-haired pointer is a breed that originated in interbreeding. The foundation is the Weimaraner, from which the Slovak rough-haired pointer takes its colour and basic character traits.
By crossing the Weimaraner with wire-haired breeds, in particular the Bohemian wire-haired pointing griffon a breed was created of colour and traits similar to those of the Weimaraner, but with a rough coat.
Until 1973, such dogs were entered into the Slovak Stud Book under the breed name Rough-haired Weimaraner. From 1973 onwards, they have been registered as an independent breed and recognised as a FCI breed.
