Slovakian Rough Haired Pointer Discussions

I was contacted by Ansona concerning the sire to Flynn. My "pedigree" states the sire as Ansona Griff yet Tricia has never bred a dog by that name!

Lol, the plot thickens!

Kind of makes sense I suppose. If she (Ansona) couldn't use the dog for breeding, it was highly unlikely that she would have kept the dog intact before re-homing elsewhere.

Was the dam of Flynn's litter a German Wirehaired then? did you meet the Slovak that was his sire?

Yes, Flynn's mother was a GWP. I obviously met the dam but didnt meet the sire as such. He was simply pointed out to me in a large enclosed area with a load of other pointers. The dog pointed out to me was indeed a SRHP.

Ahh. Someone telling porkies about the Slovaks breeding then (I guess!).

Leanne - oh that's a mystery isn't it!

Labradork - My main problem with Grey is stimulus control I reckon. As soon as he's outside, he will throw himself to the end of the lead to get to something. Bloody nightmare and I still have real nightmares about long lining him. 30kg attached to a 10 meter rope that wrapped round my ankles, anyone? Arrrrgh. I think now the bad weather is upon us I will be popping him back on the headcollar even though he really hates it.

Sanders/Kim,

I demand Cheska pictures!! if you are reading this, please share. Bo Bonkers wants to see some updated pictures of her sister.

I promise Bo i will get a photo of her sister on here for Christmas!!

Ahh, goodie!

Bless! I enjoyed that.

Here a couple of pictures of Miss Bonkers taken the other day in the snow:

Oh my goodness, so alike! Bo is so so gorgeous. Only difference is Cheska has a white patch on her chest! They look similar size, we weighed her the other day and she was 24kg, oh and thanks for the food advice she is on JWB and its sorted her out, she's travelling better too!

I am sorry i haven't posted photo's of Cheska, in true Slovie style she managed to run into a solid bench on the cliffs over Christmas she was too busy running flat out whilst looking behind her. Initially the vet thought she had cracked a bone in her shoulder, she was howling and crying it was awful, however it would appear that it is severe bruising & shock, she is still limping and on anti-inflams at the mo. My appologies to Bo!

At last, some photos for Bo of her sister Cheska!

Stunner! Love the look of these dogs!

Thank you, she is a lovely dog, very placid temperament although she does have a total clown side too! Constant entertainment and she loves to please. Although i see you have a HWV they are gorgeous too!

Hi Kim

Absolutely awesome pictures of Cheska! she is lovely. Spitting image of her sister. Thanks for sharing.

How is her leg? or was it her shoulder? we have had a couple of limpy incidents with Bo due to her klutziness which have thankfully rectified themselves after a few days...trying to keep a Slovakian quiet is a bit like torture.

I wouldn't use the word placid to describe her sister.

Thanks, i will try and get some action shots at some point! I guess when i say placid i mean easy going and gentle natured when she isn't being a clumsy clown! She loves bed and can be quite lazy about getting up in the morning! Her shoulder seems fine, although first time she was allowed off the lead again after the accident, she decided to jump off a 10ft bank straight on to the path below, luckily in true Slovie style she missed the path and belly flopped into the marshy muddy patch the other side, otherwise i think we would have been treating a broken leg at the very least. We have picked up off the Bonkers Bo and call her Crazy Cheska! Hope Bo is well, did you ever get any news on Anya?

Aww very cute.

More please!

Hi all you lovely Slovaks, Cheska and Bo you are sweeties and look so much like Anya. Here is an updated photo of Anya and Mishka

Hi

It's great to hear from you. Anya looks stunning too! They are all so alike. We are very lucky ladies having such lovely Slovies.
