Things to keep an eye on
Polyneuropathy
highThis is a rare inherited condition that affects the nerves, potentially leading to weakness or coordination difficulties.
Consult with your veterinarian if you notice any unusual changes in your dog's gait or coordination.
Hip Dysplasia
moderateThis is a condition where the hip joint does not fit together perfectly, which can lead to discomfort or mobility issues as the dog ages.
Maintain a healthy weight to reduce unnecessary stress on your dog's joints.
Otitis Externa
lowDue to their long, drooping ears, English Foxhounds can be more susceptible to moisture buildup and subsequent ear infections.
Gently clean and dry your dog's ears regularly, especially after swimming or bathing.
