The Fife Bloodhounds was formed in May 2023 to hunt the Clean Boot in Fife and the surrounding area. The pack is based near St Andrews and is registered with the Masters of Draghounds and Bloodhounds Association. Bloodhound hunting, known as “clean boot” hunting, is quite distinct from any other form of hunting, where the hounds follow the natural scent of a human runner. No artificial or animal scents are used.

The Fife Bloodhounds primarily meet on Sundays at 11am, by the kind invitation of the landowners and farmers whose support is very much appreciated. The hunting season runs from mid-October to the end of March, with some mid-week Hunts during the holiday period. Further details can be found on our events page.

We are a welcoming and friendly pack where riders and foot followers alike can enjoy watching the hounds skillfully follow the line of the runners. Riders may follow either of 2 field masters, depending on whether they wish to jump and at what pace they would like to follow.
