The Polish Hound is a hunting dog that is indigenous to Poland. They are 50 to 70 pounds & 22 to 26 inches tall at the shoulders. They are black and tan with a short dense coat. The Polish indigenous hound, like so many of the European hounds, is unfamiliar outside his home borders. He is a big, slow, heavy dog, but without the ponderous head, long ears, and excessive skin of the St. Hubert type.

He is proba-bly related to the deliberate tracking dogs of Germany and Austria. He has the German hound's large, stiff, flat ears with a bit of flew. In past centuries, he was highly prized for his superlative tracking ability. The War years decimated the breed, but it made a post-War comeback, achieving FCI recognition in 1966. At one time, a smaller version called the Gonczy Polski existed as well.

During the hunt he moves at a steady trot or a heavy gallop, and is highly prized for his perseverance and beautiful voice. Adapted to all terrain and weather, he is a dog of kind and gentle spirit. In recent years, he has again become scarce and is reputed to be quite rare.
