How tall is a Grand Basset Griffon Vendéen?

What a Grand Basset Griffon Vendéen’s height measures

Height is measured at the withers, the top of the shoulders. The head and ears extend above that line. The American Kennel Club breed profile gives 15.5-18 inches. The listing describes an adult dog, not a growth chart for puppies.

Ranked by the tallest height its standard names (18 in), the Grand Basset Griffon Vendéen is the joint 91st smallest of the 297 dog breeds on this site. See the smallest dog breeds ranked.

Drawn at the same 15.5 in: Pyrenean Shepherd, Smooth Fox Terrier and Wire Fox Terrier. Same drawing, different listings: a Grand Basset Griffon Vendéen’s and a Pyrenean Shepherd’s figures are each the lower end of its range.

This is a published species or breed reference, not a prediction for an individual animal. Where a range is supplied, both ends appear with the reading. Shoulder height and head height are kept apart when comparing animals.
