Absolutely! My Otterhound seems to have an unending supply of energy when it comes to sniffing. He can get completely engrossed in a scent trail. It's wild how he can be running and then suddenly stop to sniff something for ages, and I have to pull him away to keep moving.

My dog tracked down a sandwich I dropped in the garden. It was impressive how quickly he found it!

answer · Otterhound

Outdoor activities for my Otterhound definitely involve water. They love playing in the lake or river. It’s amazing to see how well they swim. I think it’s a breed trait, since they were originally bred for hunting in water.

question · Otterhound

We walked past a stream today... my Otterhound decided that staying dry was absolutely not an option 😂 Does your dog feel the same way about water?

answer · Otterhound

Absolutely, I recommend Otterhounds! They are wonderful, friendly dogs. They have a lovely temperament and love water, making them great companions for those who enjoy outdoor activities. They do have a strong hunting instinct, so make sure to socialize them well.

answer · Otterhound

I do trust my Otterhound off-leash in certain areas, especially when I've trained him well. They've got an instinct to follow their nose, so I keep an eye on him. Just last week, he spotted a squirrel and took off!

Yes, my Otterhound is the ultimate detective! He can spend ages sniffing at the same spot, and it’s hilarious. It’s like he’s solving a mystery with every step. They have such an amazing sense of smell and love to explore. I can’t rush him, or he gets grumpy. Honestly, it’s just part of our routine now.
