Download or read book Fox and Hounds Classic Reprint written by Edward William Dirom Cuming and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-29 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Fox and Hounds Osbaldeston's hounds, in the year 1826, when that pack was at the height of its well-merited celebrity. Let us also indulge ourselves with a fine morning in the first week of February, and at least two hundred well-mounted men by the cover's side. Time being called - say a quarter past eleven, nearly our great grandfathers' dinner hour - the hounds approach the furze-brake, or the gorse, as it is called in that region. Hark in, hark! With a slight cheer, and perhaps one wave of his cap, says Mr. Osbaldeston,1 who long hunted his own pack, and in an instant he has not a bound at his horse's heels. In a very short time the gorse appears shaken in various parts of the cover -apparently from an unknown cause, not a single hound being for some minutes visible. Presently one or two appear, leaping over some old furze which they cannot push through, and exhibit to the field their glossy skins and spotted sides. Oh, you beauties! Exclaims some old Meltonian, rapturously fond of the sport. Two minutes more elapse; another hound slips out of a cover, and takes a short turn outside, with his nose to the ground and his stern lashing his side - thinking, no doubt, he might touch on a drag, should Reynard have been abroad in the night. Hounds have no business to think, thinks the second whipper-in, who observes him; but one crack of his whip, with Rasselas, Rasselas, Where are you going, Rasselas P Get to cover, Rasselas and Rasselas.

Download or read book The American Fox Hound Classic Reprint written by Haiden C Trigg and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-08-05 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The American Fox-Hound I have received of late years so many letter from parties who have come into possession of what has become known as the Trigg Dog, and from others desiring to secure them, that I have at last decided to write this book, intended as a brief history of my dogs and those of Messrs. Birdsong and Maupin from which the Trigg Dog originated. I shall be brief, confining myself to facts gathered from my personal acquaintance with both Mr. Birdsong and Mr. Maupin and their dogs, and from my numerous correspondence with these and other famous lovers of the chase, extending over thirty-five years. Some of the letters I have submitted herewith, believing they would be interesting and instructive to the new generation of sportsmen. I have the greatest confidence in the strains mentioned herein, but the different modes of hunting the fox in various sections require certain qualities to predominate; then, there are "as many men of many minds" as there are dogs of "high and low degree." I believe, after twenty-five years acquaintance with them, during which time I have tested their speed, nose, hunting qualities, etc., with representative dogs from nearly every famous pack of the country, and from the evidence of their worth as testified to by many letters from those who have run them after various game in other States, that I have a strain of dogs at least as good as those of their famous ancestors or any of to-day. I know from almost daily experience that I can run to earth or catch the red fox. To those of you who have my dogs, and to you who have other strains, we invite correspondence. I will be glad to exchange information, experiences, etc. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Kennel Stud Book: Containing Lists of the Most Celebrated Packs of Foxhounds, With the Pedigrees of Stud Hounds The principles observed by successful breeders of race-horses in' the selection of sires and dams, that have distinguished themselves on the turf and in the stud, are identical with those laws of nature which govern the procreation of foxhounds. It will invariably be found that those animals are most to be depended upon for the perpetuation of their species whose genealogy can be traced in the greatest number of direct lines to great celebrities of olden times; the most valuable strains of blood may be readily recognised by reference to the Kennel Stud Book, ' and they will be found to be most copiously diffused through out those packs which are in the greatest renown. It is the peculiar faculty of a highly bred and highly endowed animal to convey his type to his posterity. An inferior bred hound may evince great superiority in his work, but the qualities of his progeny will be very uncertain. Hence the importance of accurate records of pedigrees.
