The Hanoverian Hound is a breed of hunting hounds bred in Germany in the 18th century. These animals have a slender body and long limbs, which allows them to quickly and dexterously move through the forest. The color of the Hanoverian hounds can be gray, brown or black, with thick and fluffy hair on the muzzle, ears and tail. These dogs have a high level of energy and stamina, making them good game hunters. They are also highly intelligent, easy to train and loyal to their owners.
