Czech Republican in origin, this breed was developed by a native breeder by the name of Frantisek Horak. Crossbred with Scottish and Sealyham Terriers and possibly the Dandie Dinmont, this breed was raised to hunt rodents. With a smaller frame and head, this dog was specifically bred by Horak to allow quick access to vermin burrows. It was recognised by the American Kennel Club in 2011.
