Summary
About Bavarian Mountain Hound
The Bavarian Mountain Hound is a medium, athletic scent hound bred in Bavaria for tracking wounded game. Calm and reserved with strangers but affectionate with family, it has a short red‑to‑fawn coat and excels in scent work. Best for active homes that enjoy regular outdoor and mental activity.
About Coton de Tulear
Small, sturdy companion from Madagascar, the Coton de Tulear has a long, white, cotton‑soft coat needing regular grooming. Cheerful, sensitive and very people focused, it bonds closely, suits apartments, needs moderate exercise and kind training, and is generally long lived but prone to some joint, eye and skin issues.
