Extracts from the “Whitehaven” umteen years ago.

Like any true Yorkshireman , Reg Smith cannot resist a challenge !

After owning, breeding and running hounds in the Yorkshire H T A, for the past eight years , Reg has recently moved lock, stock.and barrel from Whitby to Hesket- New- Market with an ambition to do well against H T A hounds . ” I Like a challenge ,” Reg told me on Saturday  as he rubbed down his hound which finished fourth in the maiden trail at Hesket- New- Market show. The opposition was too weak in Yorkshire where he took the senior championship three years in succession with his hound Scobie. other hounds in the kennel are Stroll On and Stride On and he has  Scott running in the HTA.
