UNITED STATES - 11-04-21: Michelle St. Onge whip for Piedmont Fox Hounds has a 4 curtain call to get the horses all cleaned and braided up for todays opening hunt meet near Middleburg. Of all the fox hunts in North America — 145 registered packs — the oldest one in the United States was established in 1840 as Piedmont Fox Hounds right here in Western Loudoun. It was founded by Col. Richard Henry Dulany (1820-1906) who lived at historic Welbourne, a well-known fixture in premier horse and hunt country, just west of the town of Middleburg. The Piedmont Fox Hounds are dedicated to the preservation of horse, hound and open space in Virginia. (Photo By Douglas Graham/WLP)
