    Met a Bavarian Mountain Hound

    Met a friend this evening who arranges deer shooting holidays in Scotland and I was very taken with his young Bavarian Mountain Hound. He's used for tracking deer which have been shot.

    Seems he was a long time coming and took some getting hold of but wow - It wasn't a breed I was familiar with but I'm smitten now.:grin:

    My partner has Bavarians which he uses for tracking wounded game, normally roe and muntjac.

    I will hopefully be training up one of his current litter and having a go at tracking myself with her. Completely different from my small munsterlander:)

    Below are a pic of the pup taken a couple of weeks back when she was 4 weeks old and my KlM with two of the other BMH.

    I'd be keen to hear how you get on.

    This one was 14 months old and by all accounts is doing really well.

    Love the 2nd photo by the way.

    The ears are lovely, a bit like velvet to the touch.

    Eddy has done very well at agility. He is now grade 4 and getting regular placings. Won't be long before he makes grade 5.

    Bavarians are a breed that does need to be worked, not a breed for a first timer or for a pet only home.

    Couple more pics for you

    one year while we were competing at bloodhound trials few blokes came with their hounds, they looked nice but a bit more barky than other breeds. not sure if it was just theirs or is that part of the breed, it was like my foxhounds or my friend bloodhounds who bay while on the scent it was more like my collies barking at things. anyone shad any like on it?

    A couple of pics as an update of the pup. She is now 15weeks old and doing well. Basic training is coming along and she has done a couple of short tracks successfully.
