Trailhounds for re-homingLakeland Trailhound Welfare promote trailhounds as pets and home up to 80 hounds a year. We have homed over 1000 hounds since we were formed in 1997. We home many youngsters who do not take to racing, as well as older hounds when they retire from trailing in the Lake District.
Many hounds are found places in reputable rehoming centres as well as privately in carefully selected homes.

We have a number of trailhounds available for rehoming at centres throughout the country. If you would like to adopt a trailhound directly from Cumbria, please get in touch.

Trailhounds look similar to foxhounds but are leaner in build. They originally were bred from foxhounds with other crosses to get a faster hound with a good nose used for racing between the hunting seasons.
