Summary
About East Siberian Laika
A powerful, lively hunting dog from Siberia with a wedge-shaped head, erect ears, and a dense double coat. Independent in the forest and friendly toward people, the East Siberian Laika is bred for versatile hunting, often of larger game. This breed needs a dedicated hunter with access to hunting grounds, plenty of physical and mental stimulation, and regular grooming during shedding season.
About American Foxhound
A friendly, long-legged hunting dog from the USA with an athletic build, a gentle expression, and long, floppy ears. Bred to follow scent trails with great stamina, the American Foxhound combines affection for its family with a strong hunting instinct and an independent streak. It needs plenty of exercise, scent work, and patient training, while its dense coat is easy to care for. Its far-carrying bark and howl also call for consideration for neighbors.
