The Brazilian Tracker was a quiet and balanced dog, attached to his master.

History
The Brazilian Tracker It was a breed of dog originating in Brazil, that was recognized by the FCI the 1 in September of 1967 in the Group 6 / Section 1.1 – Large size hounds with number 275. In fact, It was the first Brazilian to be recognized by the FCI breed of dog.
The Brazilian Tracker it's a Scent hound. The breed is also known under the names Urrador (his voice) or Urrador American.
It was developed in the Decade of 1950 by Oswaldo Aranha Filho (In janeiro river), to hunt peccaries (they are pigs of medium-sized and wild that found in all Central and South America), Jaguars, and other types of dams typical of the country.
Aranha Filho combined a number of breeds of hunting from America and Europe along with some native dogs of Brazil to create your dog. The Brazilian Tracker became Brazil's first race and it was what earned it the recognition of international dog associations.
The glory of being a breed officially recognized at the international level lasted barely six years, time in which by neglect and a series of relief, the race was decimated.
At that time there was only one breeder of Brazilian Tracker, Mr Oswaldo Aranha Filho, the creator of the race... And, their copies suffered because of two events, first of all an outbreak of babesiosis.
Babesiosis (or babesiosis) It is a parasitic disease similar to malaria caused by protozoa of the genus Babesia and usually affect pets, especially to dogs. Its name was established in honor of the Romanian biologist Victor Babeş, He was the first to isolate the pathogen. It is the typical disease that is transmitted through a vector organism, usually the tick (Ixodes dammini); in fact, This mite is the same that transmit Lyme disease and, often, both are associated with.
Y, in the second place, many of the dogs suffered poisoning from excess pesticide used by an employee of the farm.
It was exactly in the year 1973, when the Fédération Cynologique Internationale declared the dog breed Brazilian Tracker, officially extinct. Which led to him losing his classification number since, prompted the cancellation of the registration.
Since the FCI and the Brazilian Confederation of Cynophilia They declared this extinct breed, have carried out various efforts and programs of to retrieve it.
Physical characteristics
The standard of the breed of 1970 declaring a size between 62 and 67 cm and very similar in appearance to the Black and tan coonhound.
The Rescue Support Group Brazilian Tracker of Brazil, a club dedicated to the restoration of the breed, Brazil, He devoted himself to organize - aim- a list of forty breeding animals of the correct type as, puediesen be certified as members of the race, in order to restore the race and return to be recognised by the Kennel Club of Brazil.
The re-establishment of the breed, It has not been an easy task, due to the existence of very few pure specimens, and above all by the lack of social interest, There are very few people interested in the recovery of the true Brazilian cultural heritage and the genetics of the breed.
Character and skills
At the moment, the character is not easy to illustrate or define. Efforts to restore the breed continue today., and are being used in breeding programs, breeds used in his development with the descendants of mixed races found in all Brazil.
But, the race again in the various canine clubs list (small) and dog organizations in North America, for the promotion of a rare species for those seeking an unusual pet.
As it's a race in the process of being rebuilt, no data on specific diseases or extraordinary health demands.
The Brazilian Tracker is a hunting dog, not a type of dog that has traditionally been used as a pet.
The copies that exist today, fruit of the reconstruction, they tend to be very independent animals and, sometimes, somewhat stubborn, with a strong instinct of prey that, leads him to chase the small animals that live in the house... But with proper socialization, any dog is a good dog.

History
The Italian hound It, According to the vast majority of authors, a dog with very ancient origins. It is believed, in fact, descended from hunting dogs that lived from ancient Egypt, they reached the shores of the Mediterranean Sea, and therefore also to Italy, thanks to the Phoenician merchants. Many Egyptian drawings dating from the time of the pharaohs show the presence of dogs very similar to the current one Italian hound.
His best period is the Renaissance, when its level was improved and its great diffusion began. The race then underwent a slow and inexorable decline until, from the beginning of the 20th century, the Italian hound it became very popular again.
The modern history of Italian hound started on 1920, year in which the Technical Committee of the Society of Hound Hobbyists drew up the first breed standard that a few years later, in 1929 to be exact, was approved by the Italian Kennel Club. At that time there was only one standard that unified the Italian Rough-Haired Hound y al «Italian short-haired Segugio«; in 1976 came the prohibition of mating between the two varieties; then, in 1989, the ENCI (Ente Nazionale della Cinofilia Italiana) passed two different standards, standards that were later also recognized by the FCI which classified them in the group 6, among hound-type dogs, and related breeds.
The Italian short-haired Segugio It probably has the same origins as the «Italian Rough-Haired Hound«; in fact, both varieties of hounds have always coexisted in almost the entire peninsula.

The height of the males ranges from 52 and 58 cm., that of the females between 48 and 56 cm.. The weight can vary between 18 and 28 kg.
Character and aptitudes «Italian short-haired hound»
Alive and bold. Never aggressive towards humans; rarely towards other dogs. It does not bite. Suits austere food and country kennels. Not conspicuously affectionate, but constantly needs the presence and consideration of the owner, who often identifies with the one who accompanies him during the hunt.
If he is well-maintained and has a breed-appropriate lifestyle, the Italian short-haired Segugio You can live up 12 or 13 years. This is because this type of dog is not predisposed to particular diseases derived from its breed.
Those who love them say that…
«I did not choose to live with a «Hound», I mean it was not a choice out of passion for this breed… it happened to me! It turns out that I share my life with a "Hound". It was and still is the most amazing experience of my life. Living with a "Hound" means learning to have time, lots of time to walk “alone” exploring life, silent. It is learning that you can stay in the forest for hours without doing anything other than living and discovering the forest. And that's it. The "Hound" teaches you not to pay attention to appearances, to pursue your passions tenaciously while those who look at you think you are just sniffing. He is an extremely sensitive partner but at the same time proud and independent. Living with Chloe is an adventure, made of constant and subtle balances between sharing and the search for individuality, the desire for freedom and the need to feel close to each other, "It is learning every day to discover and respect yourself.".

top line : It is rectilinear. Descends harmoniously from the withers to the rump, with a slight convexity in the plane of the lumbar region.
Cross : Does not protrude much above the line of the back. It is narrow due to the approach of the tip of the shoulder blades and joins harmoniously with the root of the neck.
