Deutscher Wachtelhunds continue to this day to be bred by and for hunters as a flushing dog and versatile hunting dog.
Deutscher Wachtelhunds are lively and very enthusiastic hunters. Friendly and self-assured in their natural environment, biddable and highly adaptable, they are never timid or aggressive, keeping close to the trail over long distances, especially when trained and handled appropriately. Due to their versatility, they can be employed to track wounded or lost game, retrieve and flush in brushwood, heavy woodland and water.

Hunting histories describe dogs very similar to Deutscher Wachtelhunds used centuries ago to flush game. The word “Wachtelhund” has a long history as well, but controlled breeding began at the beginning of the 20th century. Deutscher Wachtelhunds are medium-sized, longhaired flushing dogs with very well developed muscles, solid bones and a noble head. Generally longer than they are high, they must not appear long-legged.
