English Foxhound

This breed dates back to the 1700s and is the typical affectionate, gentle, and sociable hound. The English Foxhound is very athletic and active, requiring plenty of space to run around, preferably with other dogs. It responds well to training and has plenty to say, so don’t expect it to stay quiet for too long. The English Foxhound is a little bit stouter than its American counterpart. In addition, it sheds seasonally, so have a brush ready.

Finnish Spitz

While it has a petite appearance, the Finnish Spitz has a big personality. It’s lively and athletic, usually enjoying romping around and is known for being faithful and courageous. It’s the national dog of Finland and has been around for thousands of years. Their appearance resembles that of a fox, with their reddish-gold fur. This breed is another vocal one, whether it’s barking to let you know about an intruder, or just because it wants a walk.
