The
Anglo-Français de Petite Vénerie is a medium-sized
breed of
dog used in
hunting as a
scenthound, usually in packs. It is one of the
Anglo-French hound breeds which were created by crossing French scenthounds with English
foxhounds. The name Petite Vénerie does not mean that dogs of the breed are petite or small, but rather that it is used to hunt small game.
