HOUND — For over 
three hundred years the

for fox hunting in the 
English fashion of riding 
to hounds. The English 
Foxhound is stouter in

variety, the chest measur¬ 
ing 31 inches in a 24-inch 
hound; and his legs are 
heavier and straighten His ears are usually rounded, that is, about V /2 
inches is taken off the end of the ear. He stands about 24 inches in

hard and glossy. 
HARRIER — The first pack of Harriers in England was established in 
1260 and in this country they have been used for hunting since Colonial 
times. The origin of the breed is obscure and it is believed that they 
are merely smaller Foxhounds, 
which they closely resemble. In 
size the Harrier comes between 
the Foxhound and the Beagle, 
being from 19 to 21 inches in 
height. He is used for hunting 
the hare, and is followed either 
on foot or with horses. He is 
similar in color to the Beagle and 
Foxhound.
