History, origin & features
The Anglo French from Petite Venerie is a French breed of hunting dog that originates from the recent (1950s) crossing of the Harrier with French hounds (the Poitevin, the Porcelaine, the Petit Gascon Saintongeois and the Petit Bleu de Gascogne). Initially, it was called the Petit Anglo-Français. Its current name was given in 1978. Socialization needs to be worked on from an early age, to facilitate interaction with fellow canines.
Cohabitation with other animals in the home should be supervised: the Anglo Français de Petite Vénerie is still a hunting dog, with a strong predatory instinct. The Anglo Français de Petite Vénerie is a medium-sized dog that can be described as balanced and solidly built, but without heaviness. Their coat is short, close and smooth. Its coat can be of these different colors:
Tricolor: white and black with bright tan markings, black nose.
White and black with pale tan, black nose.
Bicolor: white and orange, tobacco truffle.
