Originally the dog that we now know as the Great Dane, and he has a dense, long coat, similar in texture to that of the St. Bernard.

The body is strong, with broad shoulders, a deep, broad chest, and a broad, muscular back, somewhat long for. THE BEAR HUNT. FROM THE Painting by SNYDERS. the Great Dane was used for hunting the wild boar ; work for which his immense size and strength, combined with his speed, admirably fitted him. He was also used for bear hunting, and the dogs shown in Snyders' wellrknown picture are probably of this breed, although the artist has given them longer and sharper muzzles than would be recognised as typical in the improved Great Dane of the present time. The Medelan, or Bear-hound of Russia, is a more massive dog, resembling the Mastiff, or the dog of Bordeaux, rather than his height, which is about 27 inches. His weight is 183 lb. or thereabout. In colour he is dirty yellow, or grizzle red, with white patches, and always shaded with black or dark muzzle and ears. Until comparatively recently the bear provided excellent sport in Norway, but during the past thirty or forty years the number of bears has greatly diminished in the Scandinavian forests.
