It has a rectangular profile, sturdily built, deep chest, large head, dark eyes, and may have wrinkles on the forehead. The relatively large ears drop up to close to the jaws while the tail is relaxed and may curve at the tip. It has origins in Germany and may sometimes be called the Hanova hound, majorly used for hunting and tracking. The dog was crossbred with the Bavarian Hound. These features, plus the muscular fore and hind legs, ensure it can work the entire day tirelessly.
