About German Spaniel
The German Wachtelhund has tracking and blood-sniffing abilities comparable to those of the bloodhound and can track down wounded game that is 40 hours old. On a fresh game trail, he has to communicate his location to the hunters by vocalizing. The German Wachtelhund is a versatile breed that is virtually unknown to the German non-hunting public and is only kept in Germany by hunters, game wardens and professional hunters.
