did the tudors have pets
Question from Claire-Tudor pets. I would like help for my god-daughter (she's 8 yrs old) with what pets did the tudors have, and any information to do with animals in the tudor times (but mainly pets).Many thanks.Claire.'m not even sure that they kept pets in the same way that we do today. Wealthier people did, however, keep dogs for hunting and bear-baiting, as well as falcons and hawks for hunting. You might try looking at Reeves Compton, Pleasures and Pastimes in Later Medieval England (Sutton Publishing, 1995).
