The Drever, often called the Swedish Dachsbracke, is a beloved breed with a rich history.
The Drever is a short-legged scenthound from Sweden, developed in the early 20th century from the Westphalian Dachsbracke imported from Germany. Swedish hunters refined the breed for tracking deer, fox, and hare in Swedish terrain. The name 'Drever' comes from the Swedish word 'drev' meaning to hunt or drive game. The breed became the most popular hunting dog in Sweden and was recognized by the Swedish Kennel Club in 1947. It remains rare outside Scandinavia.
