The Auvergne Braque is a dog breed that originated in the county of Auvergne in southern France. This breed of dog was created for hunting small game and protecting the territory from predators. Auvergne bracques have a strong build, long muzzle and pointed ears. They have a strong hunting instinct and can follow prey over long distances. These dogs are very energetic and love to play, making them great companions for active people. However, they can also be aggressive towards other animals, so they need proper training and socialization.
