Plott Hound
Plott Hounds (40-60 pounds) are loyal, courageous, and energetic, great for active owners. They’re kid-friendly but may be too robust for toddlers. High exercise (1-2 hours daily, hunting or hiking) is essential; their short coat needs minimal brushing.
Feed 2-3 cups daily of Merrick Classic Healthy Grains Adult, with 26% protein for their energy and joint health. Monitor portions to avoid obesity. Primarily outdoor dogs, they need secure yards and aren’t suited for apartments due to baying.
Training curbs wandering. Perfect for hunters or rural households, Plotts thrive with scent work, not for sedentary or urban lifestyles.
