While the PBGV's full name can be a mouthful, a loose translation of it describes the dog well, says the American Kennel Club: Petit , Basset , Griffon , Vendéen . PBGVs have a happy demeanor and were originally bred to work in a pack, so they do well with other dogs and kids, according to the AKC. PBGVs are very curious and active dogs who love to explore. They make great companions on hikes, runs and bike rides. Because the breed naturally has an irresistible urge to follow scents, it is recommended the dogs remain on a leash outside of fenced areas.This year marked the 147th running of the Westminster Dog Show.
