affectionate, his nature is somewhat reserved and sensitive to either
praise or correction from his owner. Bloodhounds are quick to learn but
may prove obstinate in formal obedience training. Prone to drool,

recognised by his noble and dignified expression of solemnity, wisdom and
power, and loose, long pendulous folds of skin around the head and neck,
the Bloodhound is one of the most docile of pure breeds but his
determination in following a scent trail is legendary. Known as the breed
whose "nose has eyes", police departments world-wide have utilised the
skill of the Bloodhound and one dog was credited with over 600 arrests.
They have been known to follow a trail successfully for over 250
kilometres.Home Health & Care Behavior Problems Breeds Dog Names Dog Products Dog Product Reviews Dog Bookstore
