About the Otterhound:
Otterhound information, advice,
answers and dogs facts

Fanciers of this breed often refer to it as the clown of the hound group. Otterhounds have a quirky sense of humor and can be quite independent. They are strong swimmers and need plenty of daily exercise. They have a deep loud baying voice, if you want a very quiet dog this probably isn't the breed for you. With their hunting instincts its not a good idea to allow them off-lead unless they are in a safely fenced area.
