With a wiry, weather-resistant coat in shades of gray, brindle, or fawn, the Deerhound is both rugged and elegant. Despite its large size and hunting instincts, it is affectionate, friendly, and good with children, making it a wonderful companion. The Scottish Deerhound thrives in homes with space to roam and enjoys regular exercise, as well as plenty of relaxation time with its family.
