What a cutie... my DH and I have two, our son has one, his mom has one, his brother has 4..I can keep going. ha ha ha The very most important thing to know about these dogs..they are bred to hunt..so their nose..works over time. Plus..they are runners. Even if you train them to stay in certain areas of the yard..if something catches their eye..at a blink of an eye they can run right out in the road.
