francolin 449 Posted August 1, 2015 Report Share Posted August 1, 2015 would think very few hunt black n tans,not many used in England ,how do you find them baz.atb Quote Link to post
madrarua 29 Posted August 1, 2015 Report Share Posted August 1, 2015 It depends on which breed of hound you are talking about, most harrier men would not let any scarteen breeding into their kennels. The scarteen use alot off kerry breeding using only black and tan harriers, which made them a very good pack. But then it is said that they used a black and tan coon hound for colour and ruined any breeding it was used on. The kerry harrier are a top class hound which comes in all colours including black and tan and tongue that is second to none. Some have double tongue and some of the more older lines have treble tongue. 1 Quote Link to post
