Re: hare bred hounds X cottontail bred hounds

I have yet to hear anyone talk about terrain, it's also a big part of how much speed your dog has. You can have the fastest beagles in the state, but put them in some of the southern brier beds,green briers, black berry or cat briers prickly pear bush, so thick you can't see through it! Then all th...

Re: hare bred hounds X cottontail bred hounds

Re: hare bred hounds X cottontail bred hounds

Speed with accuracy; It's harder for a hound to stay glued to a cottontail. They have to slow down more often & work a tighter check area. The coal mine rabbits do run bigger & hounds can stay in a higher gear more often than most other cottontail habitat. I think a good hound can run anywhere on h...
