Great attitude and pretty smart (despite the way they look at you).. I don't track with mine but there is not a place you can hide from them inside or out. They smell everything. They do get big which can be a pain to leave while your hunting. Wonderful companions as well. Good looking pup.

The problem I see with using a bloodhound, is its sheer size

yep, the original dog to trail wounded deer

They are awesome animals. Just dont think they are lazy (always laying on the front porch of the house like movies depict). They need a lot of excercise and room to roam.

All the above. .

Bought my daughter one for her 13th B-day last Feb. Mollie is now just over a year old. Sweet dog, a little timid, no aggression at all. About 98% of the time I wouldn't give you a plug nickel for her, the other 2% of the time she has her nose to the ground tracking. She has the best nose I have ever seen on a dog. If she will just grow out of the dumb puppy stage. The only problem I see with her is if she finds a live animal at the end of her trail. She's Gone.

Only thing is, find a breeder that still breeds for tracking. There are many bloodhounds bred for show and they have been bred for every characteristic EXCEPT the ability to track.

I'm looking at buying a Bavarian Mountain Hound from Germany. Hounds are great tracking dogs, like many breeds but its all in the specific practices of the breeder you choose. Good luck!
