Dogs and All about Them

Foxhounds
have
very
much
improved
in
looks
during
the
past
five-and-twenty
years,
and
unquestionably
they
are
quite
as
good
in
the
field
or
better.
Whenever
hounds
have
good
foxes
in
front
of
them,
and
good
huntsmen
to
assist
or
watch
over
them,
they
are
as
able
as
ever,
notwithstanding
that
the
drawbacks
to
good
sport
are
more
numerous
now
than
they
used
to
be.
The
noble
hound
will
always
be
good
enough,
and
ever
and
anon
this
is
shown
by
a
run
of
the
Great
Wood
order,
to
hunt
over
five-and-twenty
to
thirty
miles
at
a
pace
to
settle
all
the
horses,
and
yet
every
hound
will
be
up.
There
has
been
a
slight
tendency
to
increase
size
of
late
years.
The
Belvoir
dog-hound
is
within
very
little
of
24
inches
instead
of
23-1/2,
the
standard
of
twenty
years
ago,
and
this
increase
has
become
very
general.
In
elegance
of
form
nothing
has
been
lost,
and
there
can
be
no
other
to
possess
beauty
combined
with
power
and
the
essential
points
for
pace
and
endurance
in
the
same
degree
as
a
Foxhound.
A
detailed
description
of
the
Foxhound
is
here
given:--
