steven w h 0 Posted January 29, 2011 Report Share Posted January 29, 2011 my packs half full of welsh hounds, really deep scented, steady, and stubborn to anybody who isnt their owner!!! Including me, the whip! very good hounds once crossed with fell hounds. superb sized hounds, still deep scented and big voiced, but abit sneakier and faster, I dont get on this much, but im a facebook kind of guy, check out my pictures, your welcome to it. but unfortunatly i dont know of anyone getting rid of any, we have our own line. http://www.(!64.56:886/#!/tomwright1992 hows it going,just a question on the welsh hounds,how do u find them at marking a fox to ground.i here a lot of good comments .i am thinking of putting a welsh hound dog over my harrier bitch. cheers steven Quote Link to post
Great White Hunter 78 Posted January 29, 2011 Report Share Posted January 29, 2011 any welsh houndswe have will mark to ground some stronger than others . as long as the hounds your breeding from mark there is a good chance that the pups will . harriers that i have seen dont want to stay at a mark but leave looking to start another hunt .

When you got a pack of welsh hounds marking strong you better get there soon because ive seen it many times in shallow spots they have dug it out before we had got there! They are a very hardy determained animal! Quote Link to post

old dog 210 Posted February 5, 2011 Report Share Posted February 5, 2011 Sorry GWH i disagree with what you say about breeding out of two marking hounds,that the pups out of that mating will also mark,WORK is the only thing that makes a pack of hounds mark nothing else,i've had hounds for 22 years,at the present time im hunting 29 hounds,out of them i'd say 4 have no interest in marking at all , the parents of these hounds are some of the best marking hounds i have here, yet the 25 that do mark are bred out of the best hunting hounds i have in kennel ie' good at finding, running,lead hounds,its like anything the more you put in,the more you get out ,atb 1 Quote Link to post
king billy 0 Posted February 5, 2011 Report Share Posted February 5, 2011 well said old dog..people tend to think take hounds out and away they go..alot is to do with the rearing and work that is put into them..yes, the breeding has to be there too, but work needs to be put into them to get them right Quote Link to post
