About Slovensky Kopov

The Slovensky Kopov is a medium, black-and-tan scenthound bred to track and hold wild boar. Tough, enduring and vocal, it needs intensive exercise, scent work and experienced handling. Loyal to its family but reserved with strangers, it suits active rural homes more than city life.
