Is this a Harrier?

Spuffy_Keeta

This is our dog Lucy. She's 5, we've had her since she was a pup.
She's about 20 inches to shoulder, so obviously too big for a Beagel and too small for a foxhound. Short course hair and velvety "V" ears. She has a great temperment and both our kids have grown up with her, she never shows agression and is strongly motivated by food. She's grand with larger dogs but has a dislike for small dogs, I think she tries to hunt them. Her energy knows no bounds and she can run for hours, maybe days if given the chance.

Here's a video of her in the garden:

Can anyone confirm/deny?

Hard to tell from a video but I wouldn't think so. She seems a bit leggier to me and the face/colouring doesn't seem quite right.

Did you buy her as a purebred?

Either way, whatever she is she's lovely

Thanks.
Yeah she is a bit leggy but not as much as a foxhound I don't think. We got her from a friend of a friend who told us she was a full beagle, but I would say she's not, seems too tall. She's about the same size now as her mother, her father is a bit taller.

Any suggestions as to what she is would be great.
In case it's not clear enough in the video, she's tri-colour, black, white and tan. Tan is on sides of her face, her eyebrows, and shading on her ears.

I'll include a pic of her face, hard to get a good clear one because she never stops.

She doesn't look like a full anything to me...I'd say maybe beagle crossed with lab or similar?

Toulouse

Beagle x Pointer perhaps?

She seems similar in build/size to my dog who is a beagle/lab x...(mother was a large type beagle maybe a foxhound)...similar traits too - spend all day fetching/running and great with kids/other dogs:)

She's not a beagle anyway, she's a cross breed of a beagle possibly. But she's not full breed of anything.

From doing some googling (is that even a word?), this mix looks the closest match to her, although I do agree she probably has a little bit of everything in her. Then again that does sometimes make for a healthier dog, right?
Thanks everyone for all your suggestions, they got me looking at some obvious mixed breeds I would never have thought of.

whatever she is, shes a smashing looking dog.
(Would def suggest some pointer in there)
The video was gas - does she HATE giving back that ball?!?! The way she ran STRAIGHT to the ball, but wandered off to the right before coming back, was gas I have to have a second ball to throw, like you do, because one of my dogs cant bear to give back the first one!

I say she is a lab crossed with something for sure. minute i seen face i thought def a lab crossed with something slightly smaller!!!
I remember saying after we got our purebred lab..
I think she is too small to be a purebred after a few months (we had papers so she obviously was) but the other half said " sure it doesnt matter what she is now, she is not going anywhere".
