Certainly a playful hound, who loves to entertain the family with his little tricks.

This dog has a gentle temperament and a well-balanced character. 

This very smart dog usually responds well to training.

The Serbian Tricolour Hound is a tenacious hunter, who often prefers to go hunting alone. In most cases, this dog prefers to be off leash, hunting, tracking and in some cases, killing his prey too. 

This dog has a friendly nature that he shows to strangers too.

When the Serbian Tricolour Hound is used for hunting purposes, he is definitely a very independent dog. 

These canines are very devoted to their owners. They will love and obey their masters without question, but as such, when left alone for long periods, can become very unhappy. 

The Serbian Tricolour Hound does best with patient, persistent and positive reinforcement training regimes. This hound can become bored quite easily with repetitive tasks so it’s important to keep training sessions short and fun. If you plan to keep your hound among other animals or children, they need to be socialised from a very young age.

This dog will typically alert his master when he has tracked and discovered any game. His booming voice will certainly be heard for some distance.

When this hound is working, he tracks off leash without problem. However, he can also continue following an interesting scent and may forget to come back for some time.

These dogs are active and energetic and need lots of mental stimulation to prevent unwanted and undesirable behaviour problems.

Not a greedy dog providing that his dietary needs are met. 

The Serbian Tricolour Hound makes a fantastic watchdog. 

These dogs need lots of space so that they can run around, both inside and outside.

The Serbian Tricolour Hound is certainly a very energetic and highly active dog. He needs an enormous amount of exercise each day. His stamina allows him to be a jogging or biking companion. 

This hound will travel in a dog crate in the rear of a vehicle without issues.

As this breed has very strong hunting instincts, it’s not advisable to keep them around cats and other small pets.

This breed tolerates other dogs very well, as he is used to hunting in packs.

This dog makes a wonderful family pet as he is both incredibly devoted and loyal to his family. He will get along fine with children in the home, especially if he is socialised from a very early age.

This is a hunting dog who needs lots of exercise and mental stimulation to prevent him from being bored in the home, so is probably not the best choice for an elderly person.

In general, hounds make poor companion pets as they can often be quite stubborn and wilful. However, the Serbian Tricolour Hound is an exception to this rule. He is very intelligent, loyal and has an eagerness to please. However, it’s important that any first time dog owner also has sufficient space for this hound to run around and plenty of time to devote to his training and exercise requirements.
