Looking for a dog that is fast, light on his feet, tall in stature and has a keen sense of smell? Sounds like the American Foxhound might be a great canine companion for you. The foxhound is actually a cousin to the English Foxhound. Both hounds are known for their exceptional skills in scenting as they were originally bred to hunt foxes by scent. The American Foxhound needs a lot of training to prepare for his debut as a scent hound extraordinaire. Training is essential and can help your hound learn to pick up scents in no time. Just be warned, once he finds the scent he’s apt to take off whether you’re holding on to him or not. The foxhound is a sweet and affectionate dog and does well with children and other dogs.
