Basset Hound (English spelling)
This hunting dog originated in France. Its ancestors are said to be ancient French dogs, the Old French Bloodhound and the St. Hubert Hound, and it is an old type of hunting dog breed. It was used for hunting small and medium-sized wild games and pheasant hunting, and developed under the patronage and protection of the French and Belgian royal families. Although it is not agile, it can approach its prey with a keen sense of smell and hunt it down with a low, resonant bark. It has a short body with thick, short legs, a long and wide body, a sturdy protruding chest, and large bones.
