Welcome to our site!  We are very small scale breeders of Petit Basset Griffon Vendeen.  Our breeding program emphasizes the natural intelligence, athleticism, and working ability of these rustic French hounds.  Our dogs compete in a variety of sports, including hunt tests, agility, scent work, obedience, tracking, lure coursing, barn hunt, and conformation shows. Our blog will share some of the ongoing adventures of The Clever Hounds and friends.
