Hey. I'll run with hounds for a while :-)

Here's a great story. http://www.megalithomania.com/show/site/931

Several High Crosses have hunt scenes carved on them. A memorial to the local lord/king who paid for the cross and liked hunting or a hint of past local lore?

Ireland has had lots of hound stories including Cuchulain et al. Several tombs were once know as The Great Hound's Bed - later perverted to The Greyhound's Bed!
