Summary
About Leonberger
Large, strongly built “gentle giant” with lion‑coloured, water‑resistant double coat and black mask. Typically calm, devoted, and very good with children and other pets when well socialised. Needs regular exercise, kind training, thorough grooming, and careful health management.
About Bracco Italiano
The Bracco Italiano is an ancient Italian pointing gundog with a noble, sculpted head and short, low‑maintenance coat. Calm, sensitive and affectionate at home yet energetic outdoors, it needs kind training, plenty of daily exercise, ear/skin care, and close family contact.
