Foxhunting Season is just around the corner and cubbing starts very soon. Hounds will inevitably be lost and found.
Here are the known numbers for all the local hunts. Please contact the hunts first if you find a hound.
Q. How do I know it's a foxhound from a foxhunting club?
A. Typically, a puppy will have a radio collar. Mature dogs and bitches will likely have a tattoo in their ear - if you are able to capture it.
Q. Should I try to capture the hound?
A, Yes, if you have a barn/stall and you can entice it into the barn. Secure the hound and then call the local hunt club who hunts in your territory.
Q. What if I can't capture the hound?
A. Call the local hunt club and report what you saw and be prepared to describe the hound (markings, gender), your location, and direction of movement.
