Back to list of breeds

The Harrier is British breed that most likely came to the U.K. with the Normans. This breed was known as the poorman’s foxhound. This breed was created to primarily hunt hares. Today the Harrier is used as a family dog and as a watch dog.

The Harrier is a medium sized dog that stands between 19 and 22 inches tall and weighs between 48 and 60 pounds. They have a short, hard coat that is tricolor white, black, and tan. However, this breed can be found in any colors that are normally associated with hounds. This breed is not a great breed for small children or young kids. They fit in better with families who have older kids. They get along with other dogs, however, they are not particularly friendly with cats.
