DREVER

It is a Swedish native dog, very ancient, similar to some basset types, which makes us think that originally there must have been bloodhounds with these characteristics. It is very little known outside its native country. The Swedish Kennel Club acknowledged it officially in 1947; in 1952, the FCI also acknowledged the breed and its first standard was set in that same year.
