Latest English Foxhound Frequently Asked Questions:
I need to take a quiz where we have to identify dogs of the Hound Group. We are provided with a picture and that's it. I have every dog of the Hound Group memorized, but I am having trouble with the American Foxhound and the English Foxhound. Basically the only noticeable difference is that the English Foxhounds have somewhat thicker, stronger looking legs. Are there any other visible differences that I should take note of?

Answer:
Right now our family has a beagle. On Monday we have an appointment to start the adoption process of a foxhound. I am not sure if she is emglish or american foxhound. Can someone please explain to me the difference? thanks.....
