Yes, that definitely happens with my Grand Basset. When she’s tracking a scent, she’s like a bloodhound on a mission. I could be standing right next to her, and she wouldn’t even notice. It’s fascinating to watch her work, but I do worry about her getting too caught up in it and wandering off.

Absolutely, my Grand Basset Griffon Vendéen can get completely lost in tracking. Once he catches a scent, it’s like nothing else matters. I’ve seen him follow a trail for ages, ignoring everything around him. It’s impressive but also a bit nerve-wracking. Sometimes, I have to call him repeatedly to get his attention back!
