The Grand Basset Griffon Vendeen has many of the same
characteristics as the PBGV, but just stands a little larger. There are, however, some
differences between the two. He is a more noble headed dog, with longer ears and a longer
muzzle, with a deeper expression. In proportions he is longer bodied than the Petit and he
has a longer tail which is also carried sabre-fashion. He has totally straight legs,
unlike the Petit, which may have a slight crook. His coat may be slightly heavier but
again should be harsh, and he has the same lovely eyebrows, beard and moustache. In
temperament he is slightly more laid back than the Petit, although both are very active
hounds.
