History
Beagle-Harriers were bred in France in the late 19th century by Baron Gerard, as a cross between the Beagle and the Harrier. Like its parent breeds, the Beagle-Harrier was bred to hunt hares, and is now a pack hunter used for hares, deer, and other game. The Beagle-Harrier was later imported into America in the mid-1800s to hunt rabbits. It was recognized by the FCI in 1974. Especially outside of its native France, the breed is quite rare.
