| Bloodhound dog -Bloodhounddog -- The American Bloodhound Club has prepared this pamphlet to help you enjoy your new addition to the fullest The bloodhound is unique and intriguing. This is a very versatile and active dog. You and your bloodhound can track, trail, participate in the obedience and agility ring, and try the show or "conformation" ring. The bloodhound is not a breed that wants to please you as much as it wants to be pleased. >>>> Welcome to our wonderful world>>>>> How did these unique looking dogs in baggy suits evolve? The bloodhound is one of the oldest breeds of dogs that hunt by scent. They are distinguished from other dogs by their pendulous ears, loose skin and extraordinary olfactory powers. It is believed that the bloodhounds of today originated from two ancient strains of European hounds, the St. Huberts and the Talbots dating to the 7th and 8th centuries. The bloodhound came to prominence when William the Conqueror brought them to England, where they were originally used as game hunting dogs. During colonization in the new world, the dogs were brought to America. Their true gift as amazing and remarkable man-trailing dogs was at last recognized. The bloodhound soon became famous as the dog with the NOSE! Today, the bloodhound is the only breed that has the ability to scent discriminate human scent, and only trained bloodhounds evidence can be accepted in a court of law. This skill is unmatched by any other breed of dog. Remarkably this same dog may be on a trail one day, in the show ring or obedience ring the next and lying on your couch or romping with your kids the day after that! The bloodhound is capable of being a serious working dog and the most clownish loveable pet you will ever own, if you take the time to train him properly throughout his life. >>>> How do I care for my new puppy>>>> Select and visit a veterinarian with your new puppy. Your vet will provide a general well-dog check-up and establish an immunization schedule. Your dog's health will benefit from your attention to some specific areas:>>>>> What must I do for my new buddy>>>> Socialization - Socialize your new puppy as much as possible. Puppies need to enjoy many new sights and sounds and make lots of new canine and human friends. This is an absolute must for the bloodhound. Try puppy kindergarten, go to some ball games, or take a daily walk in your neighborhood. >>>>> Obedience >>>> When the puppy is older, attend basic obedience or agility classes. This is a large breed and will benefit greatly from being a well behaved companion. You won't be the star, asbloodhounds can invent their own version of "obedience" but with lots of treats and plenty of praise, you can enjoy all sorts of activities with these goofy canines in baggy suits. >>>. Crate training >>>> You will need a large crate that will accommodate your bloodhound once he is fully grown. He will be much easier to housetrain since he won't want to make mistakes in his bed. He will wait until you take him out, which should be often. The crate will keep him safe and will keep your home in one piece when you are not there to supervise. This is a breed that will chew anything and everything for a number of years! You cannot leave a bloodhound puppy unattended. If you do, you are asking for a damaged home and/or a deathly ill dog. Either way it spells disaster>>>> Fencing>>>> A fenced yard is a must. NEVER allow your dog to roam free, as you will have a lost, stolen or dead dog. >>>Special identification >>>> Please tattoo or microchip your dog. Thissimple step may help insure the safe return of your pet if it is lost.Ask your vet for more information. >>>>Feeding>>>> Once past the little puppy stage, your hound should be fedat least twice daily with a good, high quality diet recommended by the breeder or your vet. Bloodhounds drink lots of water, so make sure you have plenty of fresh water available at all times. >>>>What kinds of activities can we do>>>>> There are many options for bloodhounds! Try trailing, tracking, obedience or agility, or volunteer to help with Bloodhound Breed Rescue/Adoption.
