Milla, my Hannover Hound

This is my puppy Milla (pronounced as "Mia"). She is a Hanover Hound or Scent hound. She was born on the 26^th of September 2009 here in Hungary.
I didn't get her because I'm a bad shot but you never know... :-)

She is truly a darling. Friendly, playful, intelligent and very hungry! Her parents and grandparents are well known hounds within the hunting community. They are in almost every book written in the last 20 years.



Here she is trying to swallow a deer leg. I give her at least one deer and one wild boar leg per week, she loves it!
I haven't started training her yet because I believe a puppy should be aloud to be a puppy. I'll probably start when she's about 6 or 7 months old. However, last week I couldn't help myself and tried her out. I took a wild boar paw (bottom half of the leg) and dragged it through the snow for about 10 meters and then burried it under approx. 30 cm of snow without Milla seeing anything. I then pointed the starting point out to her and of she went. She found it and ran away with it within about 10 seconds. This is without any training what so ever, pure instinct! Great stuff!
It's amazing to see these dogs work.
