the fox and the hound
the sleuth hound first appears in poems about the scottish patriots robert the bruce and william wallace. these poems depict their heroes tracked by sleuth hounds. bruce escapes by crossing water, and wallace by killing one of his party, whom he suspects of treachery, and leaving the corpse to distract the hound. the poems are romances, not histories, but there is no implausibility about the use of sleuth hounds. john barbour, who wrote "the bruce", was born before his hero died, and the year in which the bruce was supposedly pursued was 1307. thus, the inclusion of the sleuth hound in the story was no anachronism, hence that the dogs existed in scotland as early as , and that their use as man-trailers was fully established.
