Drever

The breed is a recreation of an old short-legged type hunting dog that was developed from a Swedish hound and Weshpalian Dachsbracke. While it is rare outside of Sweden, it's almost as popular there, as the Labrador Retriever is to the United States. The active and alert Drever stands at 11 to 16 inches and weighs 32 to 34 pounds. The breed is good for families and apartment living, but when not hunting, they need a fair amount of exercise.
