Summary
About Basenji
Basenji: small, athletic African hound, 40–43 cm and 9–12 kg, with short coat, curled tail and wrinkled forehead. Often “barkless,” it yodels instead. Clean, independent, intelligent and strong-willed, it needs patient positive training, secure fencing, and regular mental and physical exercise.
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.
