Description
Dog Breed: Foxhound (short coat). Here's Plover! She’s been through a rough patch — a little sore when she walks and she came in needing groceries to fatten up. But she’s doing better now every single day. Tail wags are back, appetite’s improving, and her gentle personality shines through it all. What a sweetheart!

Overview:
The American Foxhound, a quintessential American breed, boasts a rich history originating from English Foxhounds brought to the colonies in the 17th century for fox hunting. Physically, they are athletic and well-muscled, typically standing 21-25 inches at the shoulder and weighing 45-70 pounds, with a short, hard coat often seen in tricolor (black, white, and tan) or a combination of white and any other color. Temperamentally, they are known for being friendly, easygoing, and independent, possessing a strong prey drive and a characteristic, melodious "bay." While their gentle nature can make them suitable for active families, their high energy and need for vast exercise make them unsuitable for apartment living and require a secure, spacious yard. Prospective owners should be aware of potential health concerns such as hip and elbow dysplasia, and eye conditions.
