Foxhounds are a breed of dog originally developed for hunting foxes. They are known for their strong sense of smell, endurance, and friendly temperament. Typically, they have a sleek, muscular build and come in various colors, including tri-color, black, and tan. Foxhounds are often used in packs during hunts, showcasing their ability to work well with other dogs. These dogs require regular exercise and mental stimulation to stay healthy and happy. They are social animals that thrive in active households. Due to their hunting background, foxhounds may have a strong prey drive, so training and supervision are essential, especially around smaller pets.
