Tudta-e? ?
While Scottish Deerhounds are built for speed, with the power and endurance needed to take down a stag, their general bearing is one of gentle dignity.
Scottish Deerhounds are gentle, friendly dogs that are obedient and easy to train, because they only want to please. These good-natured dogs are never suspicious, aggressive or nervous, carrying themselves with quiet dignity.

While they look like roughcoated Greyhounds but bigger, with larger bone, Scottish Deerhounds are temperate companions, outstanding old hunters and runners that will not allow themselves to be shook off. Historically, there have always been roughcoated sighthounds in Scotland. Crossbreeding and selection have fashioned the Scottish Deerhound, which is now an emblematic breed in Scotland.
