Where Every Paw Feels at Home.
Also known as English Foxhound
A tireless pack runner that lives for the open country
The Foxhound was bred to run with a pack for hours across country, so it has huge stamina and a friendly, pack-minded nature. It is easy to groom but needs plenty of space, company and exercise, and is not suited to a quiet, sedentary home.

This breed needs about 120 minutes of activity a day. Around 7 sitter-led sessions a week keeps that routine going when work or travel gets in the way.

Yes, they are bred to live and work in packs and are usually very friendly with other dogs. They often prefer having canine company at home.
