The Bloodhound, also commonly known as the 'Sleuth Hound, ' is a large breed of scent hound that was originally developed to be able to hunt deer and wild boar. During the Middle Ages the Bloodhound was also used to track people. The breed has an incredible sense of smell that allows it to discern specific human scents across great distances. The mixture of the breeds innate hunting instinct and sense of smell has lead the Bloodhound to be used by modern day police and law enforcement across the world. The breed primarily is used to track escaped prisoners, lost children, missing people and lost pets. However due to the breeds tireless tracking, when following a scent, they can be difficult to obedience train. The Bloodhound has an affectionate and gentle temperament which has lead the breed to become an ever increasingly popular household pet. The breed has a loose and thin coat that sheds seasonally. The Bloodhound's coat comes in three common colorations: black and tan, liver and tan, and red. It is not uncommon for a Bloodhound to have flecks of white throughout its coat and to have white patches on its feet, chest and tip of its tail.
