Otterhound

The Otterhound is a rare, lovable British scent hound originally bred to track otters in rivers and marshes. They are cheerful, social, and full of personality, with a big voice and an even bigger sense of adventure. Their rough, water-resistant coat and powerful nose make them stand out as one of the most distinctive hound breeds.
