Information on Harriers - Pet Wave

The Harrier, also known as the Hare Hound or the Heirer, is a hardy hound, with a strong nose, that was developed in England to hunt hare. The root of the name "Harrier" is uncertain, but it may pertain to the Norman word "harier," which in Saxon means "raches," or hounds.

PetMD: Harrier Hound

The long and bony build of the Harrier lends it a large look. Being a scenting pack hound, it runs perfectly with other dogs and hunts tirelessly on any kind of land for long periods. It has a hard and short coat. When the Harrier is excited, it has an alert expression, which changes into a gentle one while resting.

Harrier Club of America - About Harriers

Harriers are very unique canine characters. While Harriers are extremely attractive hounds, you cannot consider adding a Harrier to your family based on looks alone. Behind those soft brown eyes and sweet face is a very intelligent, independent, and self-willed scent-hound. If you've never met a Harrier in person, we strongly recommend that you try to do so.
