The bloodhound is one of the most ancient breeds on record, going back to at least medieval times. Sadly, they are considered a vulnerable breed nowadays, despite having the most incredible skills as a sleuth hound – their alter ego.
While they might not be that highly ranked in the intelligence stakes, that’s probably because they have one mission in life: tracking a scent. This they do to perfection, making them highly sought after in criminal cases, finding lost children – or just providing fun following the scent of a human runner out drag-hunting.
