Snapped at Lowther Show in 2005, these trail-hounds are
eagerly waiting their chance to shine in various hound trails
that are such a feature of the Lakeland Shows. Betting is
heavy, and the regime for keeping trail hounds is strict
and demanding. Trainers can be spotted sometimes with up
to five dogs on leashes doing many miles of exercise each
day, and the meat and feed bill would fund a small army!
