Pa še to...so zelo prijazni in zaščitniški do otrok. Mislim, da ne moremo rečt da je nek pes ali pasma za otroke ali ne za otroke. Največkrat je to odvisno od psa, kako mu je otrok predstavljen in kako je vzgojen. Veliko psov, za katere menijo poznavalci, da niso ravno pravšnji za otroke se je izkazalo za ravno obratno. Mladič, ki odrašča ob otroku, pa naj bo katerekoli pasme, bo do otroka ljubezniv in zaščitniški.
This breed is a gentle dog who is nonetheless tireless in following a scent. Because of its strong tracking instinct, it can be willful and somewhat difficult to obedience train. However, with the proper amount of time, effort, and how well you treat it, this can be achieved easily.
Affectionate, gentle, and even-tempered describes a blood hound and they make excellent family pets but, like any large breed, require supervision when around small children because they will knock them over with their bulk. Bloodhounds are also characterized by a stubborn "whats-in-it-for-me?" temperament, a likely cause (in conjunction with their size and propensity for excessive drooling) for the high rate of bloodhounds given up for adoption once full-grown in comparison with other breeds.
