Rottweiler Bloodhound Mix
A Rottweiler Bloodhound mix is a cross between a Rottweiler and a Bloodhound. Most grow into giant dogs of 80–120 lb and live 10–11 years.
Photos show the purebred parents. There is no single look for a mix: puppies in one litter can resemble either side.
How big does a Rottweiler Bloodhound Mix get?
Pounds. The dark band is where most Rottweiler Bloodhound Mix dogs end up; the light band is the full range between the smallest and largest parent.
Height runs 22–27 inches at the shoulder, against 22–27 in for the Rottweiler and 23–27 in for the Bloodhound.
Coat, energy and training
Neither parent has a low-shedding coat, so expect dog hair around the house and seasonal heavy shedding.
Daily walks and some play are enough for most of these dogs.
The Rottweiler rates moderate and the Bloodhound low; a puppy may lean either way.
A weekly brush and the odd bath keep the coat in shape.
Temperament
The Rottweiler is usually described as loyal, loving, confident guardian. The Bloodhound as friendly, independent, inquisitive. A mix can take after either parent or land in between. If you can, meet both parents of a puppy before you choose.
