Its coat is usually tricolor, featuring the colors fawn, black, tan, or white. There is also grey coated (tricolor) Beagle Harriers. The BeagleHarrier's body is usually muscular and its coat smooth and thick.
The Beagle Harrier is generally good with children and other pets. They are loyal, have lots of determination and are calm and relaxed when at home, making them a good family pet. They are a hunting breed and so require a lot of exercise and space.
The BeagleHarrier breed is old, with its origins unclear; they were initially bred to hunt rabbits and other small animals. They were popular in England since the early 14th century and were later imported into America in the mid1800s to hunt rabbits. BeagleHarriers were bred in France in the 19th century by Baron Gerard. The Beagle Harrier could be a mixture of the two breeds, the Beagle and the Harrier, or the midpoint in breeding between the two breeds.
The Beagle Harrier can now be quite rarely found in France and are even more rare in other countries.
