So what's the point of the hounds? Obviously to hunt, but why so many, and it's really cool I would just like to know the way it all works.

@Lovebeecharmer Hounds are counted in couples, between 15 and 25 couple would be taken hunting on any one day. The Huntsman selects the hounds for a day's hunting from the whole pack, just like a football manager chooses his team from a much bigger squad. Look at mfha.org or mfha.co.uk for more information. Thanks for your interest!

mite be a stupid question but do they have names if so name one youtube n do u have pet dogs

@eire1984 Yes they all have names. They are named using the first two letters of their mother's name, unless their father comes from a different pack in which case his first two letters would be used.

Yes this is a working pack of hounds.

@Metal8Lover Get my dogs fixed? They're not broken. And they are not dogs, they are hounds. This is not what Americans would call a "Puppy Mill", but a working pack of hounds. None of them are ever for sale.
