Petit Basset Griffon Vendéen

The Petit Basset Griffon Vendéen (PBGV) is a vivacious and confident scent hound from France, originally bred to trail rabbits over the rough terrain of the Vendée district. Known as the 'Happy Breed' due to their wagging tails and expressive faces, they are extroverted, active, and independent dogs that thrive in a pack environment. While their rough, tousled appearance adds to their charm, they are hardy hunters at heart with a surprising amount of stamina and a loud, hound-like voice.
