Coyotehunter 689 Posted April 5, 2010 Report Share Posted April 5, 2010 (edited) do they still exist? what are they like? size, build, speed, endurance handle etc. Pops , there are lots of fell and fell cross hounds on this side of the pond, Pm if you want to use a stallion hound, depending on where you are i might be able to put you on to one. PS in terms of what they're like , a much bigger rangier trialing Walker, lots of drive , independent , generally quick, but much more handleable than a Walker Edited April 5, 2010 by Coyotehunter Quote Link to post

stevemac 433 Posted April 12, 2010 Report Share Posted April 12, 2010 Pops some of the foxhounds i have owned were fell hound crosses this I beleive made them taller a bit lighter boned and a bit more independent. they had plenty of hunt wether they had more or less than a straight foxhound its hard to say as my last foxhound was a straight foxhound and he was as good as any Ive seen. The type of fox hound I had was modern english type just in case your wondering I hunted my foxhounds on hare, fox, deer and roo I tryed them on pig but they were pretty useless giving tongue on the trail of a boar just drove them away. Which ment when they did stop a boar it was miles away. So fine for fur no good fdor brissell. stevemac Quote Link to post
Pops 19 Posted April 14, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2010 Stevemac thanks. exactly how tall did it make your hounds? were they faster than a straight foxhound? Quote Link to post
stevemac 433 Posted April 16, 2010 Report Share Posted April 16, 2010 Stevemac thanks. exactly how tall did it make your hounds? were they faster than a straight foxhound? About 27 inchs to the shoulder and they would have been a little quicker than my straight foxhunds they kept the fell hound hind quaters which I think helped them in the hills i hunt in.When I get back home I"ll try and find some old photos for you.
