The BloodhoundScent Hound
  Mel and Mattie from Shiloh Bloodhounds
The Bloodhound is not your basic apartment dog unless your apartment is 10,000 square feet with lots of criminals to find. They are very robust and need room to roam and search. A fenced back yard works fine, but so does a good walk. They love children to the degree that the owner must insure that the kids don't get abusive. They need a firm and fair owner who will not always fall for their sorrowful gaze. Most Bloodhounds need to be confined in a yard or walked on lease because, like many hounds, they pick up a scent and off they go with only one thing on their minds. Grooming is minimal but be prepared for snoring, drooling and the occasional howl.

Book Suggestions
We STRONGLY recommend that you get your dog from a respectable breeder or rescue organization. Pet store puppies may get their dogs from Puppy Mills that normally breed only for profit, not quality or concern for the puppy or its eventual owner.
If you would like help locating a breeder or rescue agency near you please E-Mail PGAA ( ita408@comcast.net), and let us know your city/state and the type of dog you are looking for. Do not assume that PGAA has qualified all of the breeders or rescues on this site. Do your own check of each breeder or rescue -- be sure that you are comfortable with the organization before you buy, adopt or turn-over a dog.  Rescue Links | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
