introduction
A medium-strength dog, made for work, the Slovak Wirehaired Pointer nevertheless has a certain nobility of form. The bottom of the coat is said to be "grey" and the hair is hard. For both males and females, a dog with a solid build, but not heavy, is sought. The eyes are almond-shaped, well set between the sockets, amber in color, animated by an intelligent expression. The ears are set above eye level, rounded in shape. The tail is moderately strong, set rather high, carried downwards when the dog is at rest; it is held horizontally in action. It is cut at mid-length.
