The Harrier

Scent Hound

Harriers are similar to Foxhounds except they're bred to hunt rabbits. They are good with other dogs but may not peacefully co-exist with non-canine pets. The Harrier loves to be a part of a human pack, especially if that pack is adventurous and active. They enjoy eating and digging, and an unchallenged Harrier will do too much of both. They are better "country-dogs" than apartment dogs. Their short coat makes them easy to groom.

Book Suggestions


We STRONGLY recommend that you get your dog from a respectable breeder or rescue organization. Pet store puppies may get their dogs from Puppy Mills that normally breed only for profit, not quality or concern for the puppy or its eventual owner.

If you would like help locating a breeder or rescue agency near you please E-Mail PGAA ( ita408@comcast.net), and let us know your city/state and the type of dog you are looking for. Do not assume that PGAA has qualified all of the breeders or rescues on this site. Do your own check of each breeder or rescue -- be sure that you are comfortable with the organization before you buy, adopt or turn-over a dog.
