American Fox Hunting History



Fox hunting hounds and horses crossing at White’s Ferry on the Potomac just a little ways down the road from where I live. No date, but very early 20th Century is my guess. White’s Ferry crosses the Potomac between Leesburg, Virginia, and Poolesville, Maryland.

In Virginia, the state dog is the foxhound. The first mounted fox hunt in America, however, was in Maryland.
