introduction
The Beagle-harrier is a breed of hunting dog of French origin.
origins
This breed was created in the 19th century by a Frenchman, Baron Gérard, who was looking for dogs capable of following galloping horses during hunts. It results mainly from a cross between two British breeds, the beagle and the harrier. At present, this breed is rarely encountered outside of France.
temper
This dog was designed for hunting, preferably in packs. It is fast, has a fine nose, and is not afraid to venture into thickets. It can be used for game such as rabbit, deer, fox. Frank, affectionate and enthusiastic, he is also appreciated as a pet.
