stand a long run and come home and not seem 

 to be tired. 



The blood hound is a good man as well as 

 an animal hunter. They will stand the longest 

 races and not tire. In fifty years breeding from 

 the best, these dogs are all that are needed in 

 a hound dog. 



On the same subject a Western brother says ; 



I have bred dogs for 55 years from most of 

 the kennels in this country, England and other 

 countries. I like English blood hound or one- 

 half hound and one-half fox hound. They are 

 sharp scented, fast runners, good stayers, good 

 fighters and game for fox and wolf hunting.
