Anglo-French Hound
A powerful pack hound combining French scenting ability with English stamina.
The Anglo-French Hound, or Anglo-Français, was developed in France by crossing traditional French scent hounds with the English Foxhound. Built for long days in the field, it is athletic, sociable, and happiest when it has space to work its nose. These dogs are occasionally seen in UK rescue and do best with active owners who understand pack-hound energy.
