The Cesky Fousek or Bohemian Wirehaired Pointing Griffon is a very social, friendly and affectionate versatile hunting dog of the Griffon type that can be put to work both before and after the shot. He has a high hunting drive and is predator-sharp.
In its country of origin selection is very much in terms of versatility. Consequently, the CF still possess the innate hunting aptitude for work in the open field, in water and in the forest. 

The working characteristics and appearance (not character) of the Cesky Fousek is very similar to the of the German Wirehaired Pointer. To see the FCI standard click here

Working characteristics in upland fields
German Wirehaired Pointers in Holland have now developed into broad-ranging hunters, due to import from Italy. They perform at the top of pointing dogs in fieldwork (feather). A good CF however, is very nearly comparable. In low cover encountered in early spring or the autumn stubble fields the CF will range at 200 – 300m. In higher cover both the manner of search and the scope will immediately be adjusted. A rough area or a stand of rushes is no problem. The CF will stay closer and work the area more intensively.
During the search the CF works with the head held in a line with the back. It seems rather typical for the CF to take up foot scent sometimes (without dropping the nose), and following this, stalking like a prowling tiger, meanwhile lifting the head to the body scent and finally pointing quite close. The head stays as was when the search was completed. For partridge on an early spring low-covered field that will be high; hunting along a border of higher cover the dog is likely to make a sudden turn to point the game there, so that the head will be held lower. The point is very intense and with authority, and the dog will not hesitate to block the wily cock-pheasant that seeks to sneak away, on condition that the dog has not been overly restrained when he was young.

Character
The CF is a very social and gentle dog who loves to work for and with his master. While gentle of character his passionate hunting drive causes him to be tough for himself in the field. He loves the water and is tenacious, which ensures excellent performance as retriever of small game and tracker of deer, elk and boar. He takes to training readily and is very popular among Czech huntsmen. A CF is far from timid, and is not easily discouraged, but, as is true for every dog, training and handling need to be attuned to the temperament of the individual. In the house he is calm and observant of house rules. In the field the CF is a different dog altogether: full of energy and always in search of possible game.

The CF is a working dog in need of a master who appreciates the innate hunting drive, understands it and gives the dog opportunity to develop under proper guidance. If this is the case your reward will be a very hard working, reliable and outstanding pointer, retriever and tracker. A wonderful hunting buddy and family friend.
