History

The Schiller Hound It is a working breed that has existed in Sweden since the Middle Ages. But, the breed was not really established and recognized until 1952. This recognition is due in large part to a breeder, Per Schiller, who gave the breed its name.

In 1886, at the first Swedish dog show, they were shown 189 hounds. Among them were Tamburini and Ralla I, a brother and sister belonging to Per Schiller. They were descended from the famous hounds of the Kaflas estate. These dogs probably came from southern Germany: rather small, fawn in color with black fur and slight white markings.

The Schiller Hound they were then based on the crossing of Swiss dogs, German and Austrian, as well as in British hunting dogs, especially the Harriers, to produce a fast and light breed that quickly acquired its type. curiously, Per Schiller worked alongside a Swedish doctor named Adolf Hamilton, and also led to the development of a similar dog named Hamilton Hound, that can be differentiated from Schiller Hound for its tricolor coat.

Still very rare outside his native country, the Schiller Hound was recognized by the Swedish Kennel Club in 1907.

The Schiller Hound has been traditionally used as a sniffing dog, although some describe it as a hunting dog. The breed is known for both its speed and superior olfactory ability; able to quickly track its prey and then howl loudly when its master approaches, alerting of its position. It is a hardy dog โ€‹โ€‹that can tolerate the cold Swedish winters well.. Often, they work individually rather than in a pack and typically hunt rabbits and foxes. Even today, many dogs still work as hunters, although they are equally good household pets.

Its long and thin limbs are parallel and are surely one of the main reasons for its impressive speed; giving them a very long stride. Their body is rectangular in shape and they have a deep chest with a robust and solid back.. Its long, tapered tail should not be carried too high in the exhibition ring..

Predominantly tan in color, the coat also has a prominent black coat. Only small white spots are allowed on the coat. Their fur is expertly designed to protect them in icy weather conditions.

Health

Most members of the breed live into their teens and tend to be in good health.. There are a couple of conditions to consider when it comes to Schiller Hound:

Hip Dysplasia

Malformed hips result in an uneven gait, lifelong muscle loss and discomfort. Affected canines are treated with a variety of therapies, including physiotherapy, hydrotherapy and pharmaceutical pain relief. Prudent screening programs in adult dogs of breeding age may help reduce the overall incidence in the population. If a breeding-age dog gets a low hip score, must be neutered and removed from the kennel.

ear infections

The floppy ears of hunting dogs are a magnet for infections as they create moist environments inside the ear canal for bacteria and yeast to thrive.. Keeping the ears clear and dry can reduce the potential for infection.. If wax builds up, an ear cleaner should be used. Infections should not be allowed to become infected and should be treated as soon as they are noticed. Chronic and whiny infections can pose a real challenge to healing and make the dog very uncomfortable and unhappy while they persist.

HISTORY ยซSPANISH HOUSEยป

Already in the fourteenth century, a dog of this breed was described by King Alfonso XI. But also other documents from this time referred to its existence.

Due to the increasing isolation in the Iberian Peninsula, the breed was kept completely pure and there were no crosses with other dog breeds.

Almost with all likelihood we are faced with a race descended from ยซCanis segusiusยซ, tracking dog used by Celtic peoples settled in central France.

The first description of peninsular hounds appears in the โ€œBook of the Monterรญa of Alfonso XIโ€, King of Castile, written during the second half of the s. XIV, that in his chapter 39 talk about "which doneness should be the hounds and the sabuesasโ€.

Over the years the Spanish Hound went repeatedly hunting small game, like hares, rabbits or foxes. He often hunted together with other dogs in the pack.

It also, was used to recover the shooting game. But also in the police force he soon had a very important task.

Full of enthusiasm for action, this spunky breed of dog proved to be a tracking dog, that already chased many trails. Due to his enormous eagerness to work and his resistance, was able to help clear up all the cases and make his teachers proud.

Still used for those tasks, preferably in your home country, Spain.

Physical characteristics "Spanish hound"

The coat of the Spanish Hound often a bit reminiscent of a cow. Often has a white background on which there are various dots and patterns.

These can be black, White, red or also multicolored. Most of the back is affected by color patterns, occasionally also the sides.

Its pelage is short, thin but nevertheless dense. Doesn't have much underlayer, making it suitable for allergy sufferers.

The Spanish Hound It belongs to the category of "medium -sized dogs". Males reach a shoulder height of up to 57 cm., the females up 53 cm.. The average weight is between 20 and 25 kg, females tend to be somewhat lighter.

Character and skills "Spanish hound"

The Spanish Hound he is a fearless hunter, eager and reliable, that nothing is lost so fast. Has an enormous need to move, who has to live regularly.

It is a minor hunting dog, which is also used for wild boar hunting, roe deer, the deer, the wolf or the bear, because in addition to being very skilled in the search, I have a determination out of the ordinary. He is also gifted with the trail of blood. Excels in hare hunting, in which he transmits to the hunter the development of the search with his voice modulations.

As a member of the family it is not very suitable, because the rhythm of life in a big city is not made for this active breed of dog. Under no circumstances do you want to be alone for hours every day.. Daily walks are mandatory with him.

He is friendly and loyal to his human being and at home he is quite calm. And you need this calm even if you have been in nature for many hours.

How do you want to find peace and quiet within the four walls of a home?, does not get along with young children. The over-excitement of children does not come at all well. But if your freedom is granted, he soon becomes a loving friend to them too. But there are certain limits!

Suspicion of strangers, so it is also a good watchdog.

The Spanish Hound is very independent and despite unconditional loyalty to his humans, always has a mind of its own.

This is why it is so important that you get the right education from the start. This must be done consistently, but nevertheless with love and patience.

Maintenance and care of the "Spanish hound"

In a narrow city apartment, that possibly on a 5th floor, a Spanish Hound has as much to look for as an elephant in a china shop. I could possibly come here in the long run to a similar result. If our Scent hound you don't have your usual workload, it may be that he destroys the furniture for lack of challenge.

A house with a large garden is an absolute must for this energetic hunter.. At the same time this aspect also relieves the owners, if our dog can let off steam regularly in the garden. Then he is already more relaxed and calm when he goes out for a walk, although he still has a lot of energy. Long walks are absolutely necessary for him.

Care:

His short coat does not require much care and his health is generally very good.

However, there must be a competent veterinarian who regularly deals with tick treatments, deworming, caring for teeth and claws, your anal glands and also from routine blood tests.

Over the years, the German Hound has come to be known by a large number of regional variants under different names. The Deutscher Bracken Club was founded in Olpe (North Rhine-Westphalia) in 1896 and included all the varieties of the northwest of the country. In 1900, They were finally grouped into a single race called ยซDeutsche Brackeยป (German Hound).

But, was not up 1964 that was recognized by the Fรฉdรฉration Cynologique Internationale (FCI). The standard currently in force dates from 1987.

German Hound

It also, even if you have enough opportunities to exercise, the risk of the dog escaping is high with the German Hound, who especially appreciates sneaking out of his house as soon as he gets the chance, whether to explore new environments or follow tempting smells.

The German Hound not at all a suitable breed of dog for apartment living. And unless you have a very large garden – and even then… – it is also not a suitable breed of dog for an elderly or sedentary person.
