Summary
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.
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.
