Catalog of breeds • Scent Hounds
The canine super-sleuth
The Bloodhound is the ultimate scent hound and is sometimes called a nose with a dog attached. The bloodhound has appeared in written records since the 14th century and are thought to be even older. The tracking instinct of this breed is so strong that it can make obedience training somewhat difficult as the dogs will easily be distracted by scents around it. Besides that, this good-natured dog is an excellent family companion for those with enough room to spare
