Small terrier-type dogs like the Cesky Terrier are native to Czechoslovakia. In order to produce a terrier that would be appropriate for hunting in the forests of Bohemia, a Czech breeder named Frantiek Horak crossed a Sealyham Terrier and a Scottish Terrier in 1948.
Appearance
This is a rectangular-shaped, short-legged, well-muscled, well-pigmented hunting terrier. The Cesky has naturally occurring tail, drop ears, and a long silky coat with a subtle sheen that ranges in color from charcoal to platinum (black pigmented) or, in rare cases, brown. This breed has a topline that rises slightly toward the back and is longer than it is tall.
Care as a Pet/ In Captivity
These canines are exceptionally trainable because the Cesky was designed deliberately to have a calm, intelligent nature in addition to its hunting abilities. They appreciate making their families happy, and they are content to join them as a group for exercise. Cesky terriers require a little more time and attention from their owners when it comes to maintaining their lengthy coats.
Exercise
You can anticipate the Cesky, a little but energetic dog breed, to be prepared for daily lengthy walks (and he can even join you for a jog). This terrier will be right there with you if you like to go trekking or camping, but be careful that because to his low stature, he might not be able to climb up rocks or cross rivers. Your Cesky will be content with about an hour of action every day, such as going for walks, racing around the yard, or playing games.
Remember that Ceskys can be quite prey-driven when enjoying the great outdoors because they were bred to be avid hunters. In order to prevent a frantic pursuit and dangerous situations, it’s crucial to keep your terrier on a leash or securely enclosed in a fence.
Maintenance and Grooming
This breed can occasionally experience the Scotty Cramp, a small issue that causes unnatural movement but poses no danger to life. This breed needs monthly cuts and a moderate amount of maintenance. To prevent overgrowth and breaking, their strong nails should be routinely cut with a nail clipper or a grinder. To prevent a buildup of wax and debris that could cause an infection, examine their ears frequently. You should brush your teeth frequently.
Nutrition and Diet
Feeding your Cesky terrier a balanced diet without going overboard with meals or snacks is important. These dogs may be extremely food-focused, so it’s crucial to keep them on a schedule and prevent overeating. Dogs who gain too much weight may become obese and develop other health issues.
The breed doesn’t have a reputation for having many dietary sensitivities, thus they can usually thrive on any premium food formula. Consult your veterinarian about quantities and nutrients depending on age, weight, and activity level to develop the ideal diet strategy for your particular dog.
