Later a stock was developed a little bigger well-known as Harvieston. This owed something to the Clumber Spaniel and to the Bloodhound, and until in our days some Spaniels of Sussex has an air of Hounds. It has always been relatively strange and it is necessary to thank the British breeder Mrs.Freer to continue with the race through the two world wars.

The Sussex is used to hunt the partridge and the pheasant, but it is small for the hare. He/she works in places very towns, barking while he/she carries out their task so that the master knows where it is.
