Do hounds run fast?
Some breeds of hounds run faster than other breeds of hounds. It really depends on the length of their legs and what quarry they were bred to chase. In the case of fox hounds, they run very fast, thus fox hunters must be mounted in order to keep up with them. Beagles, which are smaller and have shorter legs were bred to chase rabbits. Although rabbits are fast, the hounds hunt by scent rather than sight, thus as they track their quarry, nose to the ground and are rarely in a full run. Orininally bred with short legs so they could follow the rabbit down the hole, in hunting today, the hounds are called off and the hunt ends when the quarry "goes to ground". This is also the case in Fox hunting.
