What a Transylvanian Hound’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 22-26 inches. The listing describes an adult dog, not a growth chart for puppies.

Ranked by the tallest height its standard names (26 in), the Transylvanian Hound is the joint 71st tallest of the 297 dog breeds on this site. See the tallest dog breeds ranked.

Drawn at the same 22 in: Whippet, Bouvier des Ardennes and Old English Sheepdog. Same drawing, different listings: a Transylvanian Hound’s figure is the lower end of its range, a Whippet’s the top of its male range, a Bouvier des Ardennes’ the lower end of its male range, an Old English Sheepdog’s a minimum.

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.
