This time, momo is going to introduce this breed of dog , the petit basset griffon vendéen.
01. Dog breed traits
Dating back to the 16th century, the breed's name is the most detailed description of the characteristics of any dog breed – petit (small) basset (short) griffon (hard-haired dog) vendeen (Vendée region of France).
The Begi Basset Griffin Vendai is a hunting dog that relies on smell, and the evolution of this dog breed's size is closely related to the environment and topography of the Vendée region on the west coast of France.

The Vendée region of France is full of rocks and thorns, and the difficult natural environment requires that the hounds there must have the characteristics of vigilance, boldness, self-confidence, and the intelligence and physical strength of the hunters.
If you can name a hound that encapsulates all the good qualities mentioned above, the Beji Basset Griffin Wangdai is the best choice.

In 1907, a breeder named Paul founded the first Begui Basset Griffin Vendai Kennel Club and served as the club's president, and subsequently set standards for this breed, which at that time described both small and large Beji Basset Griffin Vendai.
But in a new standard published by the club in 1950, only the official standard was given for the small Begy Basset Griffin Vendai, and it was recognized as a separate breed.

In the United States, in order to protect the development of the Dog Breed, the Akc Association officially established the Beji Basset Griffin Vendai Kennel Club in 1984.

Jeffrey Pepper, president of the American Beji Basset Griffin Vendai Kennel Club and akc judge, Salinas, Calif., gave a profound evaluation of this breed:
"PBGVs (American nickname for petit basset griffon vendéen) are not taciturn and at the same time restless about doing nothing, they are cheerful and difficult to control, they will not wait for you to tell them what to do, but will act directly. They will use their 'big voice' for reasons they think are reasonable, and the reason for the roar may be that there is a squirrel in the yard. ”

This is the energetic and enthusiastic pbgv, which can receive sports and psychological training, become a good player in obedience, calling, tracking and agility training, and some pbgv can be competent for search and rescue and dog doctor roles.
Thanks to its lively and cheerful personality, friendly attitude and carefree appearance, it's easy to forget that the Beji Basset Griffin Vendai is still a first-class hunter.
Through centuries of improvements in its hunting ability and character, the Beji Basset Griffin Vendai is a great companion both in hunting and family life.
