Caring for a Otterhound

Health

Prone to hip dysplasia and bloat given the breed's large, deep-chested build.

Nutrition

A quality diet matched to this breed's active background, with meals split to help reduce bloat risk.

Grooming

The rough, shaggy double coat needs regular brushing to prevent matting.

Training

Friendly and generally easygoing, though genuinely scent-driven — secure fencing matters given the breed's hunting background.

About the breed

A large, shaggy English scent hound originally bred to hunt otters, now among the rarest breeds in the world.

Big, boisterous, and affectionate, Otterhounds are friendly, easygoing dogs despite their imposing size.
