The Cesky Terrier, national dog of the Czech Republic, is a clever and adventurous playmate for kids and an eager walking buddy for the folks. They are tenacious at work, but a little more laid back and tractable than the usual terrier. Ceskys are muscular, short-legged, and handsome hunters standing no taller than 13 inches at the shoulder. The fine, silky coat comes in several shades of gray, including a stunning platinum. Wavy facial hair gives Ceskys a sporty, Continental look, and the medium-long neck lends a dash of elegance to these game, unspoiled working terriers. While Ceskys are as determined and prey-driven as any other earthdog, they're mellower than a typical terrier. Wary of strangers and protective of loved ones, they're good watchdogs without being particularly yappy. They train well and want to please. Here's the catch: They are a scarce breed, with only about 600 living in America. A wonderful family dog, if you're lucky enough to find one.

This week we're going to look at some rarer breeds or breeds not known by the general public.

First up, the Beauceron (pronunciation: Bo-sir-ron). Imposing and powerful, but also remarkably smart, spirited, and a versatile herder. Imagine a Border Collie's brain in a 100-pound body. They are especially beloved by women as a dashing but sensitive companion and protector.

Beaucerons are muscular, rugged, and large, standing as high as 27.5 inches at the shoulder, and yet graceful and in all ways balanced. Their dark black coats feature handsome squirrel-red accents, including the red feet that give the breed its French nickname Bas-Rouge ("red stockings"). They're also seen in a black-gray-tan coat. The long head is well chiseled, and the dark brown eyes project expression breed fanciers describe as frank and confident. They're not for novice owners, who might end up being owned by their dominant dog instead of the other way around. That said, well-trained and socialized Beaucerons are levelheaded watchdogs and guardians, especially good with the young, the small, and the defenseless.

Today's breed might, at first glance, look like the same breed as we spotlighted a few days ago, but it's NOT. And, that is just about all we know about this breed as you will read.....

The Australian Stumpy Tail Cattle Dog is NOT an Australian Cattle Dog with a docked tail. They are a naturally bob-tailed breed and stand square with plenty of leg length under the body.

There are major structural differences in breed type between the two breeds of Cattle Dogs - most notably, the tail length. Some Stumpy Tail pups are born with long tails and should not be discarded from a breeding program if they are of structural quality, and bred back to quality natural bob tails.

This Australian breed is pretty well-known here in the U.S.

The compact but muscular Australian Cattle Dog, also called Blue or Red Heeler or Queensland Heeler, is related to Australia's famous wild dog, the Dingo. These resilient herders are intelligent enough to routinely outsmart their owners. Standing between 17 to 20 inches at the shoulder, the Australian Cattle Dog is a sturdy, hard-muscled herder of strength and agility. The ACD is born with a white coat that turns either blue-gray or red. Both coat colors may feature distinctive mottling or speckling patterns. ACDs have immense work drive and excel at controlling and, of course, moving livestock. Their boundless energy and supple gait make them excellent running partners. ACDs are true-blue loyal, famously smart, tenacious, ever alert, and may be wary of strangers. If an ACD isn't challenged, it easily becomes bored and may get into mischief. It is recommended that ACD owners participate with these versatile dogs in some work, sport, or regular exercise to keep them mentally and physically fit.

The Australian Kelpie is a lithe, active dog, capable of untiring work. He is extremely intelligent, alert, and eager with unlimited energy.

As a herding dog, the Australian Kelpie is intensely loyal and devoted to duty. He has a natural instinct and aptitude for working in sheep, whether it be in open fields or enclosed yards. This breed originated from Collie type dogs imported from Scotland, but was developed to withstand the harsh heat and dry conditions of the vast open spaces of Australia.

But, if you want one, good luck. They are a difficult breed to find information on beyond what is included here, so guessing finding one to purchase might prove difficult.

While there are other tongue-twister breeds to look at, we're going to step away from them for now and we're going to visit Australia this week.

Up first, the Australian Terrier - plucky, spirited and lively. This cheeky, self-assured "Aussie" approaches life with plenty of the terrier curiosity and grit.

Australian Terriers, one of the smaller, sturdy and self-confident terriers with a longish torso, have distinctive coat furnishings for protection of the neck and forequarters, and a topknot of soft, silky hair that contrasts in texture with an otherwise harsh coat. The lenght of neck lends a dash of elegance to this rough-and-ready terrier, and the dark eyes sparkle with keen intelligence. Coat colors are blue-and-tan, or solid red or sandy. Aussies move with the free and easy gait of a working dog. They are alert watchdogs and said to be quick studies when training. Assuies excel in all performance events. True terriers, Aussies love playing, and the urge to chase small, critters has never left them. Aussies are adaptable to most situations and make devoted companions and terrific pets.

It's a Wolf, right? Nope. It's a Czechoslavakian Vlcak (pronunciation - Check-slow-vaa-kee-an Vul-Chuck). They are very intelligent, self-thinking, but NOT well suited to repetitive tasks or service type work where the dog must stay on task for long periods.

An alert, primitive canine that resembles a wolf in appearance. They are highly intelligent, powerful, active, loyal and devoted to their owner. They have superior eyesight, hearing and sense of smell and are known for having excellent stamina and endurance. The Czechoslovakian Vlcak (CSV) was originally bred for working border patrol in Czechoslovakia in the 1950s. They are currently used in Europe and the United States for search and rescue, tracking, obedience, agility, drafting, herding, and working dog sports. The CSV is bred for versatility and hardiness in harsh elements and is much more independent in nature than many other working breeds. They are an excellent choice for tracking or trailing sport/work, or as a companion for active owners who enjoy spending time doing outdoor activities such as biking, running, or hiking. They are not, however, recommended for first time owners.

Stepping away, for a minute, from the tongue twisters. But, today's breed may require some bi-lingual skills.

The Calupoh is a versatile and loyal breed with a dependable temperment. Calupohs are ideal companions.

Considered sacred in Pre-Hispanic Mexico where the breed originated two thousand years ago, Calupoh are the result of crossing native Mexican dogs with the grey wolf. There are accounts of Calupoh remains found in places of importance such as the Temple of Quetzalcoatl, the Pyramid of the Moon, and in the Templo Mayor in Mexico-Tenochtitlan. While no longer crossed with wolves in modern times, Calupoh retain the noble bearing and strong character of their ancient wolf ancestors. Their appearance, with medium length black coats and striking yellow eyes, gain them attention wherever they go. They are a balanced dog with slightly long legs resembling their wolf ancestors with a powerful head and skull. Bred to be loyal to their families, the Calupoh standard states A versatile dog and great companion which, due to its extreme tolerance and nobility, adapts to any activity.

The Nederlandse Kooikerhondje (pronunciation: Nay-der-lands-say Koi-ker-hond-jayis........yep, not very helpful; still can't pronounce it, but it's cute) lively, agile, self-confident, good-natured and alert. The breed is faithful, easy-going and friendly in the home. Outdoors he is a true sporting dog being keen, swift, tough, attentive and energetic. With sufficient perseverance and stamina, he enjoys working and does so with a cheerful character.

The Kooikerhondje the 'little white and orange dog with a big heart' is a sporty, eye-catching fellow with a silky all-weather coat of white with red patches. They are instantly recognizable thanks to their large, black-tipped ears and the richly feathered tail they wag proudly. The breed has the sturdy bone structure expected of a serious hunter, but the overall picture is that of a harmoniously built dog of smooth, flowing contours and springy gait. The Nederlandse Kooikerhondje Club of the United States has served as the AKC Parent Club to represent the Kooikerhondje since April 2014.

Tall and elegant, the Azawakh (pronunciation: Az-a-walk) is a West African sighthound who originates from the countries of Burkina Faso, Mali, and Niger. The Azawakh has a short, fine coat which may come in any color or color combinations: red, clear sand to fawn, brindled, parti-color (which may be predominantly white), blue, black and brown. The head may have a black mask and there may be white markings on the legs, bib and at the tip of tail. There are no color or marking disqualifications in the breed. Befitting its heritage, the Azawakh excels as a companion, guardian and a lure courser in the United States.

This ancient hunting hound is so lean and rangy that his bone structure and musculature can plainly be seen beneath his skin. The smooth S-shaped contours, deep chest, and aerodynamic head mark the Azwakh as a member of the sighthound family, canine sprinters that rely on keen vision and blazing speed to fix and course their prey. The ultrafine coat comes in several colors and patterns. The overall look of this leggy hound is one of elegance and fineness, but don't be fooled: This is a tough, durable hunter who's been chasing gazelle across the scorching sands of the Sahara for more than a thousand years.
