English Foxhound

Whether your buying a new dog or simply looking for a shelter that will help you adopt a new pet, Insurance4Britain.com is the place to look for all your pet and pet insurance needs.

The English Foxhound is one of the three foxhound breeds of dog. They are scent hounds, bred to hunt foxes by scent. They are lively, friendly, and energetic; qualities which may present themselves well into adulthood. English Foxhounds can be very independent making them difficult to train. An experienced and firm owner is often needed.

They are sociable dogs and will get along well with them; however, it may be necessary to be careful around smaller animals, as the hunter in them may take over. Ensuring that they are used to household pets at an early age should prevent this. They also get along well with children, although some may be a little too boisterous for very young children.

They are good guard dogs and loyal to the family. They are more suited to rural life with plenty of exercise, as if neglected; boredom could result in destructive behaviour. Their lifespan is considered to be 11 years.
