Bloodhounds typically have a shorter lifespan, averaging around 10 to 12 years, due to several factors including their size, genetic predispositions to certain health issues, and the physical demands of their work. Common health problems in the breed include hip dysplasia, heart issues, and certain types of cancers, which can contribute to their overall longevity. Additionally, their loose skin and long ears, while advantageous for scent tracking, can lead to skin infections and other complications. Regular veterinary care and a healthy lifestyle can help mitigate some of these risks.
