Welsh Hounds


Recommended Posts


We hunt a few pure Welsh and some welsh/harrier cross with great success, also based in Northern Ireland and hunt a mixture of terrain

Have ye bred a couple of generations down of the welsh/harrier cross? I have always head, and seen in the only example our pack has had, was that when you cross a foxhound with an Irish harrier, the first generation might be OK, but anything bred down from them will be pure dirt. We had a first generation foxhound/harrier cross bitch in our pack about 15 years ago, she was a great hound, we bred a belly of pups of her and they were pure dirt. Just wondering how the welsh/harrier cross ran

We haven't taken it any further than the half cross yet mate , the ones we have are first season dogs and are hunting powerful well . A lot easier controlled than pure harriers , still have plenty of speed and good voice and a bit of ruggedness from the Welsh for the tighter cover .
