Hannoverscher Schweißhund and Siberian Husky Mix - a hybrid breed
The Hannoverscher Schweißhund is a rare mixed breed developed by breeder John McLain in the 1980s. He belongs to the group of dogs known as "hybrids". He is a cross between the Hanoverian Hound and the Siberian Husky. The Hanoverian Scent Hound is an athletic, energetic and fearless dog with great hunting and agility. His coat is long and thick, making him adaptable and resistant to weather conditions. His nose is high and he has a sense of scent and smell that makes him an excellent sheepdog. His personality is friendly and affectionate, but he is also a strong protector of his family. The Siberian Husky is another popular mixed breed that originated in northern Alaska. He is stockier, braver and more powerful than the Hanoverian Scent Hound and is often used to pull trucks and as a working dog.
