PBGV in South Africa

The low-slung, shaggy-coated Petit Basset Griffon Vendéen is a vivacious French rabbit-hunting hound known for a happy demeanor and durable constitution. Bred to work in a pack, PBGVs enjoy company and do well with other dogs and kids.

A loose translation of the name describes the dog well: Petit (small), Basset (low), Griffon (shaggy), Venden (from the Vende region of France). Put it all together and you have a diminutive hound, standing 13 to 15 inches at the shoulder, with short but strong legs and a rough tousled coat, bred to hunt rabbits on the rugged west coast of France.

Other distinctive features of these little extroverts are a proudly carried head, a saber tail, and a loud, houndy bark.
