ABOUT: ENGLISH COONHOUND DOG BREED
The English Coonhound, also known as the American English Coonhound, is a versatile and athletic breed known for their excellent hunting skills and friendly temperament. These dogs excel in tracking and trailing game, particularly raccoons, hence their name. They are pack animals that thrive on human companionship and enjoy being part of an active family. With a distinctive baying voice and a strong prey drive, the English Coonhound is a loyal and devoted hunting companion.
The Fox Terrier is a small, energetic, and intelligent breed known for its distinctive appearance, with smooth or wirehaired coat varieties. Fox Terriers are fearless and playful, making them excellent companions for active families. Their history lies in hunting foxes, reflected in their high prey drive and need for mental and physical stimulation. They are loyal and affectionate towards their owners but may show dominance over other dogs. Regular exercise and training are essential for a well balanced Fox Terrier.
