The Four Shires Bloodhounds Boxing Day Meet 2007. Market Square, Ashbourne, Derbyshire, UK.

The sport of hunting with Bloodhounds is known as hunting the clean boot. Unlike a draghunt which uses an artificial pre-laid scent, Bloodhounds have to work the scent (which is affected by the weather) of a human quarry -- a fell runner or a marathon runner. These hounds are very affectionate and on finding their quarry at the end of the meet, they often lick the runner.

  • @digbycurrents I assume you thing they are hunting foxes.. they are a bloodhound pack, they hunt a human runner.. nothing gets hurt by these guys.

  • when he blew that horn.....it gave me goosebumps!! WOW, so many gorgeous horses!

  • Isn't it cruel to hunt humans with hounds for sport? This loophole in the Hunting Act 2004 must be plugged as soon as possible. Where are unwashed protestors when they are needed?
