History: Origins and development of the breed
The Grand Anglo-Français Tricolore breed was developed in the mid-19th century in France by crossing English Foxhounds with various French hounds. The goal was to create a breed that was faster and more agile than the English Foxhound while retaining the excellent scenting abilities of the French hounds. The breed was originally used for hunting large game, such as deer and wild boar, but it has since been used for a variety of hunting purposes, including tracking and hunting small game, such as rabbits and hares. The Grand Anglo-Français Tricolore breed was officially recognized by the French Kennel Club in 1996.
