Lecturer—A Member of the Crickhowell Harriers.
From 16 to 20 inches is the general height, sometimes a trifle more, or less.
Unless very carefully trained, Harriers will hunt rabbits, and then they are with difficulty broken of this vice.
The most useful colour is black, white and tan (tricolour), but hare, red, tan, badger and yellow pies are frequent.
Throughout, the Harrier should be symmetrical, have a large nose, dilated nostrils, ears low set on and lying close to the cheeks, and the neck long and strong. A short neck is a defective one.
There must be no loose skin, such as dewlap, etc., in this region.
Elbows well let down and carried in the same line as body.
Loins.—Broad; and back straight, strong, and wide.
Back ribs.—Deep.
