Harrier

If you were to talk about a dog whose body design is fantastic, you would have to mention the Harrier breed. This dog falls in the category of hound dogs and has all the attributes needed to steal your heart.
To begin with, their rounded ears are seen to hang, almost begging for a light touch from their owners. Its eyes are placed strategically for clear vision, while its black nose rules the lower center part of the face.
The breed is a dog that grows long rather than tall. They can stand up to heights of 21 inches and may weigh 60 pounds when fully grown.
This dog is also outgoing and people-oriented and will be a good companion for families. The coat is short but elegant looking with an exceptionally soft feel.
Havanese

The Havanese is an excellent companion dog whose coat is soft, thick, and silky. Watery eyes are unique features that are easy to identify in this particular dog. The Havanese dog does not mind strangers and can make friends with anyone.
They are additionally affectionate to family and are suited for apartment living. If you are worried about the size of a dog, then I can assure you that this dog is relatively small in size. The Havanese can weigh up to 13 pounds while standing 11 inches tall.
With this breed, you can enjoy his or her company for 12 to 15 years. A key thing to note about Havanese is that they cannot like being alone.
Leaving them alone for too long can make them very bored or even, at times, annoyed since they do not like being excluded from activities.
Hamiltonstovare

The Hamiltonstovare, commonly known as the Hamilton, is a Swedish dog. Others may see this dog as the hamilton Hound and Swedish foxhound. The dog owns an intelligent, handsome, and closely fitting coat that is identifiable from a distance.
They are energetic and agile, with a muscular body built for non-stop action. The coat comes in a tricolored covering. These are white, black, and brown, usually perfectly blended to achieve an elegant look.
What is unique about its coat is the white blaze or markings that occupy the upper muzzle, underside of the neck, chest, lower sides of the legs, and the tip of its mighty tail.
The Hamilton is known to be affectionate and obedient but can sometimes turn into a stubborn dog when unhappy. It will, therefore, need positive reinforcement from the owners to execute commands when given.
Hamilton’s can weigh 75 pounds and stand at a maximum height of 25 inches.
Hanoverian Scent Hound

The Hanoverian scent hound is a distinctive dog from Germany. This breed is a loyal and independent dog. Like many Scent hounds, the Hanoverian Scent hound is a prey dog. They can track games over longer distances and with great perfection.
This dog is the epitome of strength and endurance that would be necessary for any hunting activity to be successful. The default color for the Hanoverian Scent hound’s shorthaired coat is red but can vary to black.
Its dark eyes are perfectly etched onto their sockets, and its partly wrinkled face gives this dog an alert expression. Hanoverian scent hounds can weigh 100 pounds and may stand up to 21 inches in height.
Hokkaido

This medium-sized dog is known for its sleepy look. The Hokkaido traces its origin back to Japan. It is also known as the Do-ken, Ainu-ken, Seta, Ainu dog, or Hokkaido-Ken.
Those who have met them will confirm that this dog has a pleasant personality. His sleepy-looking face disguises the conservative nature of the Hokkaido. The Hokkaido is usually very vigilant and can be a good protector of your home.
Their ears are described as being erect, triangular-shaped, and relatively small. This dog is known for its loyalty. The Hokkaido is also known to withstand icy weather conditions.
Brushing teeth, occasional baths, and frequent coat brushing are some recommended actions to keep this dog neat. This dog can weigh 66 pounds and can reach heights of 20 inches.
Hovawart

The Hovawart is another breed of dog that is master of itself. This dog prides itself on being curious, alert, and intelligent. The nose is one of the most adorable parts of this dog. Having a huge muscular body, this dog is determined to complete whatever tasks are given.
They have an unbreakable spirit that guides them never to give up. Those who own this dog also know them as a relaxed and stress-free dog. If all their needs are met, they will be no trouble for you.
Despite being a social dog, the Hovawart can also like to be left alone. They may take some time tending to themselves before joining the rest of the family. The Hovawart is a dog that does not like restrictions put on it.
Being a giant, energetic dog, an open field for him or her to exercise would be their best habitat. The Hovawart can weigh 90 pounds and are known to reach heights of 28 inches.
