Spanish term or phrase: Caza al salto con perro

La caza al salto (se puede realizar con o sin perro) es probablemente una de las modalidades más duras y esforzadas y más practicadas por los cazadores en el campo español.

I am having a few difficulties distinguishing between the different methods of hunting, and in finding the appropriate English equivalent.

Hunting with jump dogs

Explanation:
It´s a kind of hunting rabbits with different kinds of dogs.There are two types of dogs to hunt rabbits; jump and trail dogs.A good jump dog will eagerly approach any brush pile or briar thicket looking
for the prey. If a rabbit is in the pile or thicket and stubbornly wants to
stay there (maybe thinking it is immune from major disturbance) the jump dog
will go in after it, crawling into seemingly impossible places to get the rabbit
running. The trail dog meanwhile might sniff around the brush pile, or even
enter it somewhat, but not with the zeal of the jump dog.
Good luck!
