Danish mastiff-type dogs emerged in the 18th century, serving as estate guardians and hunting companions for nobility. Their primary role involved protecting large properties and livestock.
Developed in Czechoslovakia during the 1940s by crossing Scottish and Sealyham Terriers, bred specifically for hunting in the rocky terrain of Bohemia to pursue small game.
Regular grooming despite short coat, moderate exercise requirements despite size, and attention to potential joint issues due to large breed status.
Requires professional grooming every 6-8 weeks. Needs regular exercise and mental stimulation. Watch for potential terrier-specific health issues and maintain dental care.
