We'll be honest and say we don't have any idea what kind of dog Tommy is. Viszla and Redbone are the closest we can come up with but we would be surprised if he had any of either breed in him! Tommy is super friendly with everyone he meets. He adjusts quickly to change and rides well in cars. He is an affectionate yet playful boy. He is fine with children, quite playful with dogs and untested with cats. He should make a wonderful companion and family dog. Tommy was housebroken but may need a tune up!?
