While travelling through
the Racing takes place over
moorland, fields and fells, the hounds following a trail made of a mixture of
paraffin and oil of aniseed. Two trailers carry rags to the halfway point and
then walk away from each other, one towards the start and one towards the
finish, laying the trail. As the race unfolds many of the owners and
spectators lay bets with the bookmakers who are a permanent part of the
trailing fraternity. When the timekeeper shouts "trail", the race
is close to finishing, and the betting stops. The first dog to cross the line
wins. Judging the result of a hound trail can often be a close call, with a
video camera 'photo finish' sometimes used to decide the result. Anybody wanting to
participate in the running of hounds must be a member of the association and
have their hounds registered. Some owners like to breed their own puppies;
others buy them from a breeder. Puppies begin their training at 6 months and
by the end of the year they are racing on practice trails against other pups.
By the start of the season proper in April they are ready for the real thing. 82 pups have now been registered. Bitch Puppy registrations 2019 Acorn (Eden Rossi x Eden Rosa) R.Smith, R.Dickinson,
