Hi I am after a new pup ! Im looking for idealy I would like a male cesky fousek but after months of looking I have given up I am now thinkng Gwp Gsp or maybe lab crossed with either of those two . Does anyone have or no of and pups or planning pups like those in the future ? Any help would b great
cheers
the cesky fousek breeder is overseas at present, however I think a new dog has arrived and some litters are planned...like anything planned it does take time.
there are plenty of mongrel litters being whelped most weeks.
I am in the same boat.
Looking for a GSP pup.

another litter of pure german DK are due to drop very soon.
DK?
@Gapped axe DK is Deutsch kurzhaar which means german shorthair. They are "different" to the GSP as the dogs are tested under a german hunting test situation. Pretty sure dogs need to get a certain score to be able to be bred from. I also think that the german breedmasters tell you which dogs/bitches you can breed to. This is because they try and maintain different lines of DK.
startseite
Breed wardens, and they administer paper work, the health checks and test scores are in place as well as the inbreeding risk, breeders can pick and chose sire and dam anything too close may require the head breed wardens and breed club vets sign off and conditions.
It's the same with all German breeds.
Kawhia could you give me any details about possible cesky pups who can I get hold pretty keen on 1
Where are they based?
@R93. You need to get into some of these.Quote:

Had a look at the site , very cool . One thing that surprised me is they have black ones . As far as pure german bloodlines .I always thought these came from English pointers ?Quote:

The black did come from the English pointer, Arkwright pointer line I think, the same black DK mother line went into the black DD.
from my limited knowledge of GSP's all I know that anything from Dawn Flight Jake was good, mind you that was some years ago. On my third GWP and I wont be changing.
I read about a GSP breeder in Germany and he said How can a good dog be the wrong colour?
A good dog can be pink with purple spots! and the color is irrelevant, however there is proven genetic links to weaknesses in the colors of some breeds... for the average hunter it is not totally relevant.Quote:

Hence why it took years to bring the black and whites back into the main studbook. The cross was done to darken eye colour and to add the solid coloured pointers puported nose. That all this happened 100 years ago means absolutely nothing today.
Also, there is no such thing as an Arkwright pointer, in fact I only hear GSP people use the term. A kennel of dogs yes, calling it a strain is questionable. Yes the cross in Germany was done with a solid coloured black dog, but it wasn't one of William Arkwright's.
Its the inside colour that counts.
Yep! "A good pointer cannot be a bad colour"
Beechgrove Bess, a 7th generation arkwright pointer, and the start of the Prussian pointer which did go into the the Dk stud book.Quote:

7 generations Arkwright could be taken as meaning 7 generations solid black. As Arkwright introduced the solid black gene later in his breeding (with dogs from bred by the gunmaker Pape) it's unlikely Bess was seven generations black as such. I'd imagine she is more of the Devonshire strain that Arkwright was fond of and based his breeding off.
The dog in my avatar is no more Arkwight than a GSP is, nor is it English, having developed in Europe for nearly 100 years after leaving England. Her solid black gene is directly traceable to four dogs Arkwright sent to Scandinavia to 'preserve their purity' . The blood from those countries is behind most of the continental European pointers today, quite distinct from the Prices/Salter Devonshire strain that is behind most UK pointers and incidentally, every American field type pointer. In fact, every American field pointer alive today goes directly up the male line to Ch. Prices' Bang. The pointer stopped being 'English' a long time ago.
the bitch in question came via arkwright, and I am sure there was a few introduced in that time period, is well documented within the zuctbuch including her breeding, the germans like writing stuff down. fair to say the DK and gsp owe a lot to the introduction of the pointer blood.
That's good news then, there must be a pedigree for Beechgrove Bess, can you find it? I doubt she came direct from Arkwright, at the time his name was very much a marketing tool in Europe, not proof of his breeding, and as mentioned above often used to describe a solid black pointer only. The time frame on the pedigree will tell all, as the only records I can find online are well after Arkwright stopped breeding pointers . Interesting nonetheless, if you can find her pedigree and DOB.
Of course the GSP owes a lot to the pointer, had to dilute the hound blood somehow :P
