Hi, I just rescued a 3-year-old AmFox, and she is very submissive. She's come out of her shell since coming home with me 2 weeks ago, playing, looking for and giving affection, etc. but this morning and all day, is cowering, hiding under furniture and shaking when I approach. Any suggestions to soothe her and get her to be ok again?

Foxhounds were never meant to be pets. These hounds are breed to be hunters . They are suited for outside living and this is wear they are most content. They are hunters but are usually submissive to their caretakers. Sounds like a change in enviroment may be the culprit . It would be best for the animal to find someone that could provide the enviroment it was breed for.
