introduction
It is a balanced and solidly built dog, but without heaviness. Seen in profile, its silhouette should tend towards that of a French dog. It is comfortable on all terrains and in all climates. He is an enduring, fast, intelligent hunting dog. It can be used alone or in a pack, to hunt hare or even fox, wild boar and roe deer. It is more adapted to life in a kennel, with its congeners, than to city life.
origins
The Anglo-Français de petite vénerie is a French hunting dog whose breed was created recently, from crosses between the Harrier and the Poitevin, as well as the Petit Gascon-Saintongeois and the Petit bleu de Gascogne. It was first called Petit Anglo-Français; its current standard was registered in 1978. It looks a lot like the Anglo-French de grande vénerie, in a reduced model.
