My opinion is that the only thing a Slovak and Weimaraner share is the color grey. Now Tara is stripped you can see that her appearance and build is far more GWP.

Like Josie already wrote the Slovak is in her behavior so much different from the Weimaraner. When people expect to get a “rough haired Weimaraner” they probably will be disappointed if they compare them. When I choose for a Slovakian Rough Haired Pointer I wanted a more versatile hunting dog and of course we love the color grey  Very Happy

No, of course I'm not serious, even though she is an obnoxious, impetuous, over-confident pain in the arse!!!!!!

you could also contact the WCGB they have assisted with a couple of rescues and might be able to help if another one comes up for rehoming.

Shocked  why strip a Slovak?
The hairy unkempt look is one of their appealing features.
I prefer just running a brush over my boy

they remind me of a grandad or a granny I don't know why but they have that look of I'm old grey and unkept but with a little glint in their eye that hides a great sense of humour and a lust for life... you know the ones who have a stick but would use it to trip you up with for a giggle.

Jo would you say now if you had the choice again of getting a Weimaraner or a SRP would you go straight for the SRP???
