Briquet Griffon Vendéen Dog Breed
A Briquet Griffon Vendéen is a breed of hunting dog
originating in France. Prior to th first World War it was bred down in size by
the Comte d’Elva from the Grand Griffon Vendéen, a descendant of the Canis
Segusius used by the Gauls. The Briquet Griffon Vendéen was almost extinct after
World War II, but thanks to the effort of Hubert Dezamy, a French dog show
judge, the breed was restored.
