Bohemian Shepherd

The Bohemian Shepherd, also known as the Chodský pes, is a medium-sized herding breed that hails from the Czech Republic. Highly regarded for its intelligence, agility, and loyalty, this breed has roots that trace back several centuries, historically serving as a versatile working dog in the Chod region. The Bohemian Shepherd has a well-proportioned, muscular build, typically standing between 19 to 22 inches in height and weighing around 35 to 55 pounds. Its dense, double-layered coat is predominantly black with rich tan markings, providing excellent protection against harsh weather conditions. This breed is known for its keen herding instincts and versatility, making it an adept working dog, but it's equally cherished as a devoted family companion. Energetic and eager to please, the Bohemian Shepherd thrives on mental and physical stimulation and forms close bonds with its family, making it well-suited for active households. Its friendly and gentle demeanor towards children and other pets further enhances its reputation as a well-rounded, affectionate breed. Regular exercise, along with early socialization and training, is essential to harness the full potential of this intelligent and amiable breed.
