wachtelhund

The dog in the picture is a Small Munsterlander (SM). Read the bottom left of the Contents page. I'm a Wachtelhund breeder and the Chairman of Deutscher Wachtelhund North America, Inc. The Deutscher Wachtelhund (DW) and SM look very much a like and have similar coats that range from long and wavy to long and smooth. The SM being only slightly taller in the leg and is a pointer. The Wachtelhund is a flusher, but still a versatile gun dog that will any type of game: feathered or fur, small or large game, game or predators; including blooding wounded game. The coloring of the dog on Gundog is called schimmel in German. Wachtelhunds come in two primary colors; schimmel and solid brown. Also there are several colorations caused by recessive genes; solid blond to red or brownscheck and heltiger (dogs with solid brown and white patterns). The one post in this thread showing a Wachtelhund retrieving a pheasant was one of my dogs, copied from a web site. If you want more info on the Wachtelhund you can PM me. Dave Pepe DWNA, Chairman
