"sometimes not so good"  and the blood
trail is faint, a quality tracking dog can
make all the difference in the world.
Here at Hillock Kennels (pronounced hil eck meaning a small hill for we
live at the top of a small hill) we are committed to producing the highest
competing in tracking test when they are available, and real world
tracking experience. Each year more and more states are allowing
dogs for blood tracking and recovery of wounded game such as deer
and bear. If you are thinking about getting involved with blood tracking
with dogs I trackers and foresters of Europe  the scent tracking
specialist  know as Bavarian Mountain Blood hounds.

The Bavarian Mountain Blood hound is also known as the is,

Bavarian Mountain Blood hound is also known as the translation it
has been pointed out to me that Blood hound Bavarian Mountain  
Scent Hound (this is what FCI's translation should be used in the
of a link between the BGS or BMH as it is commonly refereed to
by those speaking English and the Bloodhound that most are
familiar with. A lot of the confusion translations of
Gebirgsschweisshund. The full German name is Bayerische
Gebirgsschweisshund. All Leash hounds are descended from the
original hunting dogs of Germany known as Bracken. All pure trail.
They have a well developed will to follow a difficult trail. The
Bavarian Mountain Blood Hounds ancestry can be traced to
around 1870 when Baron Karg-Bebenburg successfully crossed
(Tiroler Bracke) to create a lighter blood tracking specialist. This
created a more agile dog for the mountains of Bavaria. At first
sight, it is similar in appearance to the Hanoverian Blood hound,
but is shorter and finer boned than the latter. The only recognized
club for the Bavarian Mountain Blood Hound was created in 1912
in Munich, Germany.

Club for Bavarian Mountain Blood Hounds
Pictures
Counter
Pups available from us.
The KBGS in Germany was very open to assist
us here in North America get a club established.
 As a club our members will be able to import
pups directly from Germany.  Pups will only go
to established members. If you are interested in
joining the BGS-GNA please let me know. Some
of the BGS the bases for the future breeding
program in this country. Each dogs pedigree will
be looked at before being allowed into the club
to make sure that the paperwork is correct.
There are some dogs in this country have come
from none working parents and/or puppy mills in
Europe. These are the type of dogs that we do
not want in the club. This club will take a
different mind set than most Americans are use
to. The very strict rules are there to protect this
great breed. I want to protect this breed thus the
reason I pursued a relationship with the breed
club in Germany. If you are willing to accept
these strict rules I welcome you to join
BGS-GNA.

work and the future to the breed here in this country (new bloodlines).
Introducing the newest blood tracking dog to Hillock Kennels. Thanks
If all works out and he turns out to be a good blood tracking dog for
locating and recovering wounded deer, then passes all of the
necessary test he will be used for breeding.

Hillock Kennels is currently working on a
training video to help you train you new
pup to recover wounded animals. Look
for it some time around the fall of 2011.
You need Java to see this applet.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION Nov 09 Due to the forming of the Bayerische Gebirgsschweisshund Group North America
German club in hopes of reproducing the same kind of success of breeding quality tracking dogs that they have. We will
be following all of their rules. Thus we are starting over with only dogs that are ISHV stamped on the pedigree to insure
that they come from working homes. The first two pups where brought into this country in July 09. They will not be
eligible to have their hips tested till they are 2 and then must pass the tracking test before they are breed. We are
working to bring in a couple of new pups each year to bolster the bloodlines that are already here. We do not expect
any pups before late 2012. We are sorry for the inconvenience but we are doing this to insure that only the best dogs
are here and are used for breeding.  If we start off right we can insure a good foundation for a wonderful breed. If you
decide to import a BGS PLEASE make sure that the dogs pedigree is stamped properly with the ISHV stamp. This way
we only bring in working dogs and keep the show dogs out of the country and out of the breeding program. If you have a
BGS with the proper stamps please let me know, if it passes all its test then we can add it to the know breeding gene
pool here in this country.
Thanks

Mirko's first real find. 150
yards through several
patches of standing water.
He never missed a beat
and went right to the deer.
08/6/2011 The KBGS-GNA  had a great meeting back in May with many of our members turning out to listen and learn
from James Smyth. James is retired Army and remained in Germany after his retirement. James became a member of
the KBGS in the late 70 and eventually became a judge. His knowledge will  be invaluable to our group. I was just
informed today that there will be a VSwP help in North Carolina either the third or fourth week of March 2012. If both
dogs pass their tracking test then hopefully the first pups coming out of the KBGSS-GNA will arrive sometime mid to late
2012
