Brown eyes painted with the most finest of black eyeliner.
Dark browns and blacks with white snouts and socks,
Sits the proud and majestic Beagle Harrier.
Running with Kings at the foot of their heels
These brave dogs would pick up the chirps and the squeals.
Pointed snout burying in each and every next hole
Destined to seek out the master and hunters next fowl.
Happy at home after a long day off in the woods
The Beagle Harrier will happily sit down with his friend
To enjoy the each lapse of the fire on a chilly fall night.

Larger and faster than the Beagle, the Beagle Harrier is excellent in small game hunting (hare, fox, deer, and wild boar)... [and]...is hardy, vigorous, fast, agile, and courageous but less powerful than the Harrier. With his determination and keen sense of smell, he works well in packs and is not afraid to enter even the thickest brambles. This easygoing, straightforward dog is a pleasant companion..."...
