In brief about Jänisjemma



©RH, Pihka and Katla in winter 2013

Jänisjemma blog is intended to serve as primarily our hunting and blood tracking diary. I also tell generally about hunting and blood tracking. In addition there is a touch of "basset kind" way of living. "Jänisjemma" (Finnish) playfully means as "hare's hiding place".

I started blogging in October 2011, when Pihka was our only dog and then aged about three and a half years old basset fauve de bretagne. Katla is an investment dog (same breed) and came to us on December 2012.

Here is something more about Woodsman's Baikal alias "Pihka".
Here is something more about Vainukorven Catla alias "Katla".


A little funny listing about this breed:

How do you know that you have basset fauve de bretagne?
