Please try and talk me out of this......

There is a Foxhound just come into our local rescue,they say it's a cross but it looks like a Dumfriesshire foxhound to me.

Now I have sort of been looking for another dog ever since I got Craven,as he's a pack animal I think he would love another dog.

But................

This dog was found as a stray or abandoned,but probably stray,so that could mean 2 dogs with dodgy recall,I don't think I could handle 2 dogs on longlines.

This rescue is about 4 years old so nearly 2 years older than Craven.

Am I being silly even thinking about this.

Your thoughts and opinions are welcome.

That dog has been on the loose for weeks and weeks, Donna at Rileys has been trying to catch him for ages.

Re: Please try and talk me out of this......

i went to a foxhound show once and the dogs were stunning , i would love one but apparantly they dont make good pets
is craven a full foxhound , hes a very noble looking beast and i have been wondering because of his markings but ive never seen one kept as a pet before.

Craven is a full foxhound,but he's a cross between an English & Welsh Foxhound,as a pet he's perfect and his recall is improving.

But would the rescue one be as good as Craven.

They do make great pets,very similar to Beagles although Craven seems a lot bolder than most Beagles.

His temperament is excellent and he loves all dogs & people.

He's not noisy in the house,when he's excited or trying to get another dog to play he will bark/howl a little.

He does pull a little,but that's not a problem with One dog,but with 2 I would have to work on Craven a bit more.But he's a lot better than he was.
