Getting to know the Beagle-harrier
Origins & history
A story told
Crosses between Beagle and Harrier have been carried out since the 18th century in an attempt to obtain a medium-sized Beagle, that is, dogs capable of following horses at gallop during hunts. In the 19th century, Baron Gérard Grandin de l'Eprevier achieved the desired result. Currently, this breed is rarely encountered outside of France.
