Publisher's Synopsis
The Austrian Black Tan Hound is probably a breed that you haven't heard of because of its rarity. As the name implies, its origins are across the pond in Europe. While the American Kennel Club doesn't recognize this dog, the United Kennel Club (UKC) and Federation Cynologique Internationale (FCI) do. The latter knows him by his German name, Brandlbracke. Experts believe that the Austrian Black Tan Hound is a descendant of the Celtic Hound of myth and legend. That makes this pooch related, albeit, distantly to others of its kind, such as the Irish Wolfhound and Greyhound. This lineage also provides some clues about what kind of dog the Austrian Black Tan Hound is.
