About The Breed

Known for their remarkable sense of smell and tracking abilities, the Bloodhound is a large, powerful breed. Originally bred for hunting and search-and-rescue work, Bloodhounds have an incredible nose, capable of tracking scents over great distances and through challenging terrain. Despite their intense work ethic, they are friendly, affectionate, and loyal dogs that bond closely with their families. Bloodhounds are good with children and get along well with other pets, though their independent and sometimes stubborn nature can make training a challenge. Their loose, wrinkled skin and long ears give them a distinct, soulful appearance. Regular exercise is important to keep them physically and mentally stimulated, and their unique scenting abilities make them invaluable working dogs.
