Summary
About Kuvasz
The Kuvasz is a large, ancient Hungarian livestock guardian with a white, weatherproof coat. Loyal and protective with family but reserved with strangers, it needs early socialisation, firm yet kind training, space, and experienced owners to manage its strong, independent nature.
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.
