americanfoxhound hashtag performance

The #AmericanFoxhound hashtag showcases the breed's playful nature, agility, loyalty, hunting skills, and strong sense of scent. Users share videos, training tips, and heartwarming moments with these energetic, sociable dogs.
There are so many wonderful ways to bond with your Foxhound, but these are a few of my favorites! To build your relationship with your Foxhound, try doing some activities that engage their natural instincts! American Foxhounds are historically bred to hunt, using their nose to find game. They do this for hours on end, loping alongside horses for many miles. It’s no surprise that this breed enjoys sniffing, chasing small animals and has impressive endurance and problem solving skills. To engage these natural instincts these make some great enrichment activities for them: • SLOW SNIFFY WALKS:  Sniffy walks engage that hound dog nose. Dogs have a strong sense of smell and take in a lot of information through their noses, and scent hounds do most of all. Allowing them to sniff engages that instinct, works their brain, and can be a calming activity for some dogs. • HIKING:  Hiking is a great enrichment activity for Foxhounds because it introduces them to novel smells and engages their body more. • BARN HUNT:  Dog sports are a great way to bond with your dog because you need to work as a team and encourage each other to succeed. Barn Hunt is a great sport for hounds because it uses their sniffing and problem solving instincts with a prey animal. • BIKEJORING:  Bikejoring is an awesome sport for Foxhounds, especially younger ones, because it provides an outlet for their instinct to distance run. Plus it’s great exercise for you too! I find that this sport works best when you pair a hound with a non-hound that won’t be as distracted by scents along the way. • FAST CAT:  Fast CAT is a great activity for any dog! This 100-yard sprint is a chance for dogs to run and chase prey. While Foxhounds aren’t built to sprint, it still engages that need to run, and are faster than you’d think! The key to a strong relationship with your dog is finding activities that you enjoy doing together.  Any dog can do almost any activity, but these are a few of my favorites for Foxhounds! #foxhound #americanfoxhound #scenthound #dogenrichment #dogenrichmentactivities #dogsports #hounddognation #hounddog #hikingwithdogs #barnhunt #bikejoring #drylandmushing #fastcat

Our first Christmas without Gin 💔 she was part of our lives for almost a whole decade. Sometimes I dream of her barks 💔❤️. #seniordog #seniordogsoftiktok #americanfoxhound #americanfoxhoundsoftiktok #hound #houndsoftiktok #hounddog #seniorpet #olddog #olddogsoftiktok #petloss #petgrief
He was my best friend and I miss him so much 💔 #americanfoxhound #seniordog
I miss him so much. Cant believe its been almost 2 years without my best boy 💔 #petloss #dogmomlife #americanfoxhound
Here’s the thing: I don’t like walking when it’s so cold my lungs hurt, and especially not when I’m already sick. Ginsburg hates getting snow in her paws. Annabeth thinks she doesn’t feel cold, but she’s a hound dog so we all know that’s not true. So we are keeping things fresh with tasty yak chews from @devildogpetco* and some training sessions for dinner. Variety is the spice of life for us and our dogs, but you can still find variety without leaving the house! — *these chews were gifted to us in exchange for a Tik Tok video #dogenrichment #dogenrichmentactivities #goldenretriever #americanfoxhound #hounddog #englishcreamgoldenretriever #livebetterwithyourdog
If I had realized how important it was, I would have played more with my dog. It’s not that I *never* played with Starsky.  But I didn’t realize how beneficial play was to a relationship.  Especially when he was young, he would ask to tug.  I would engage him for a minute and then ignore him, or pet him instead.   Eventually he stopped asking to play.  I am sure some of that was maturity, but I know part of it was that I inadvertently taught him not to play with me. We had a very strong relationship.  He was my best boy and I was his person.  We bonded in other ways.  Snuggling, hiking, barn hunt, sniffaris.   It’s not that our relationship struggled; it’s that it could have been even stronger and we could have had another activity to enjoy together.   Play has innumerable benefits for our dogs and ourselves, far too many to list.  And it’s wonderful for our relationships with our dogs.   If you haven’t yet, take a couple minutes to play with your dog today! #playwithyourdog #dogplay #dogplaying #americanfoxhound #foxhound #hounddognation
