About the Breed
Better known in North America as the Scottish Deerhound, these hounds were bred before the advent of the gun, to assist in the capture of red deer for the table. Pace and stamina were essential characteristics, and Greyhounds appear to have been involved in their early development. Changes in hunting techniques contributed to the decline of the Deerhound, but Queen Victoria helped to ensure the survival of the breed, which was immortalized in paintings by the artist Sir Edwin Landseer.
It is not a common breed today but retains support from a dedicated group of owners. Deerhounds are good-natured dogs and settle well in spacious domestic surroundings. They need plenty of exercise, and will still chase game if the opportunity presents itself. Although the Deerhound may appear somewhat similar to the Irish Wolfhound, it can be distinguished by its over-all sleeker appearance. A good brushing of its harsh wiry hair will be adequate. Dark bluish-grey is the favoured coat colour.
Height not less than 30 in (76 cm), bitches not below 28 in (71 cm)
Weight 85-105 lb (38.6-47.6 kg)
Coat type/colour A thick, close-lying, harsh somewhat ragged coat is required, with a moustache of silky hair. (See Irish Wolfhound.) Colour grey, brindle and wheaten; red, sandy and fawn were once very popular.
