Summary
About Hamilton Hound
The Hamilton Hound is a Swedish tricolour scent hound, medium‑large, athletic and robust. Calm, friendly and affectionate at home, it has strong hunting drive, a loud voice and needs substantial daily exercise, training and mental stimulation. Coat care is simple.
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.
