The American Foxhound originates back to the early 1700’s in VA and MD where it was bred for hunting fox in both a pack, and solo situations. As a member of the Hound Group, the AKC recognized the breed in 1886. The Foxhound can be any color with a coarse short coat and must stand between 12-25 inches at the withers. George Washington ran a breeding program for this breed and references to his hounds can be found in his journals. In spite of being an American breed, it is also one of the rarest.

The Candle Topper “A Day on the Lake” features one of our 218 hand painted Tiny One dog figurines, sitting on a dock, watching a mother duck swim by with her ducklings in the pond. Made of stone resin, and hand painted, it looks so realistic the dog may just jump in at any time! What a perfect gift for all those Summer time candles! Topper is designed to fit in a standard size candle with an opening of 2 15/16”. (candle not included)
