HEAD--The head, which has been described as something between that of a Bloodhound and that of a Foxhound, is more hard and rugged than either. With a narrow forehead, ascending to a moderate peak.

EARS--The ears are long and sweeping, but not feathered down to the tips, set low and lying flat to the cheeks.

EYES--The eyes are large, dark and deeply set, having a peculiarly thoughtful expression. They show a considerable amount of the haw.

NOSE--The nose is large and well developed, the nostrils expanding.

CHEST--The chest, deep and capacious, but not too wide. BACK--The back is strong, wide and arched.

SHOULDERS--The shoulders ought to be sloping, the arms and thighs substantial and muscular.

FEET--The feet, fairly large and spreading, with firm pads and strong nails to resist sharp rocks.

STERN--The stern when the hound is at work is carried gaily, like that of a rough Welsh Harrier. It is thick and well covered, to serve as a rudder.

HEIGHT--22 to 24 inches.
