Summary

About Alpine Dachsbracke
Compact, sturdy Austrian scent hound with a long body, short strong legs and a dense, weather‑resistant red coat. Calm and affectionate at home but driven by a strong hunting instinct, it needs plenty of exercise, nose work and consistent, positive training to thrive.
About Bergamasco
Ancient Italian herding breed, medium‑large and sturdy, known for its long, felted gray coat that forms natural flocks. Calm, observant, and deeply bonded to family, it doubles as a gentle guardian. Needs steady exercise, thoughtful training, early coat care, and is generally healthy and long‑lived.
