That head.

The Bracco Italiano just might have the “hound-iest” look of all the gundogs, and we think it has a lot to do with that magnificent head. Pendulous ears set low, jowls you want to get lost in, and a big head whose skull and muzzle are of equal length contribute to an appearance that throws off most people unfamiliar with the breed. How important is the head to breed type? The FCI standard devotes no fewer than 451 words to describing the head and its components.
