It originally found its uses in hunting vermin but its gentle nature soon made it a well-loved companion pet. It has a small but sturdy muscular frame with strong short legs, an elongated head, drop ears, a fine, silky coat with distinctive wavy eyebrows, moustache and beard. The coat generally comes in a glamorous array of silvery-grey shades. Like other terriers, these little dogs were bred to hunt vermin but unlike other typical terriers, they are calmer and less active. Their more gentle ways, make them ideal companion pets and they slot into family life very well, making super little playmates for children. They also get on well with other dogs and household pets, especially if raised with them. The Cesky may be less energetic than other terriers but they still enjoy plenty of walks and activities with their family and are great dogs for agility and obedience training. Their calm and loving nature has also seen them used as therapy dogs. For those looking for a calmer terrier, that is fun and devoted, you can’t go far wrong with a Cesky.
