Then my mate ran 4/5 1/2 crosses with another pack and they were well able to hunt but one or 2 at the end of the day when u would be calling them up had the tendency to hang about a bit in cover. But u would let them away with that they were great to draw and always up the front on a hunt 1 1 Quote Link to post

Kaiser Sozé 282 Posted April 2, 2019 Report Share Posted April 2, 2019 Our pack is mostly old English foxhound with around 10 Irish harriers. We find the foxhound is hard to beat for marking but the harriers voice and deep scenting abilities is a must.. that said there's packs of harriers that mark every bit as good as foxhound packs.. 1 Quote Link to post

But u would let them away with that they were great to draw and always up the front on a hunt id a welsh fell dog and as a first season hound after hunting on way to load up he would run of once he got acouple feet from the trailer use to really get to me so after a few time I use to just drive off leaving him he use to run along after us by the end the season there was no messing about straight in he went with the rest 2 Quote Link to post
