Summary
About Grand Basset Griffon Vendéen
Medium, rustic French scent hound with rough, weatherproof coat and long ears. Cheerful, sociable and affectionate, but independent and strong‑nosed, needing secure fencing, good recall and plenty of exercise. Coat needs regular brushing; ears and weight require routine care.
About Posavac Hound
Medium, athletic Croatian scent hound with a short red‑and‑white coat and gentle expression. Affectionate and family‑oriented, yet strongly driven to track game. Needs 1–2 hours of daily exercise plus mental work. Generally healthy but rare outside Croatia, so breeders can be hard to find.
