    Help with my puppy's breed

    My boyfriend and I adopted a puppy, Bubby Jones, from our local animal shelter last September. He was a day away from being put to sleep because he had been in there for so long, and we couldn't resist! He was already neutered and full grown, but it took us 3 months to housebreak him. His age is unknown, along with his breed. We suspected either an American or French Foxhound, but he has been a steady 40 lbs since the day we got him. His legs are too tall, and snout is too long for a beagle. Any help on what breed this lil guy is would be very much appreciated!

    Hey Bubby Jones, so nice to meet you! I was thinking there is some beagle in there, but your mom says nope! So I don't know. But I DO know she loves you VERY much. So glad to see your handsome face here on Pet Talk!!!

    I'm not good at this, but I would say beagle mixed with a larger breed. His head looks EXACLTY like a beagle.
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    He looks like Trail Hound and Beagle/Harrier/Foxhound to me.

    beagle / foxhound

    My dog's face is identical to your's and he's a beagle (maybe shepherd) & foxhound. My guess is he's just beagle foxhound, cause he's got more white than my dogger. Great mix!!! Fun dog!!!

    So sorry I haven't been on here forever, I'm way behind on these last few posts. Well, I just so happened to run into a gentleman the other day who breeds Treeing Walker Coonhounds. He took at look at Bub, and said he is a Beagle/Walker mix.

    The poor thing is still deathly afraid of riding in the car, and the noise of lawnmowers and the vacuum. Pretty sure he had a rough life before going to the shelter But, he has been great! Still having difficulty training him on a leash, but he is housebroken and responds well to most commands.

    Thank you all for your help =))

    What about a Harrier? It's more square than a Foxhound, larger than a Beagle...
