I believe the drive from that trial to the “Adirondacks” is about 4 hours. Just for the history and experience, if I was going to go to the trial, I would add an extra day and head up to where it all began. My buddies Mike Oszust and Jim Lane had an interesting thing happen to them. Because both the...

In case you have not heard, there is going to be a Willet Randall Memorial Cup/NBPPA Sectional trial and show, November 5, 2011 hosted by the New Empire Beagle Club in Buffalo, NY. It would be "fitting" if a Patch Hound brought that particular win home.

I don’t believe anybody is doing any more then expressing their opinions, though some may be more passionate then others. But a few things to keep in mind, when a person describes their dogs, training methods and progress in the field in great detail, and especially if they back it up with “videos” ...

I don’t believe what I am hearing throughout pages of this site, I got two words for many on here “Jibber Jabber”. But I guess this is just another sign of the times. It is also in sports and other areas. Back in the day in baseball, 1971 through 1979 Bert Blyleven averaged between 273 and 325 innin...

Are there some great hounds at a very young age? Absolutely, I can name many that finished early and produced very well early. But… even those that are great early are even better at the more experienced age of 4 or 5. You can’t replace or shortcut to pure “experience” and time on the ground. As “Oh...

Hey guys I am very concerned for my friend Matt who has a condition that has been not yet been treated or diagonsied. All i know is it happened last weekend and it involeved a short round woman, a bottle of sunscreen, a pair of sunglasses, a cooler and as a result he has been left with with a aling...

I have a 1 year old as of June 28,2011 (last month) She is in heat (just started to bleed, first heat cycle) Should I wait ? I bred her mother at a young age of 14-15 months old and she did great If she is out of strange crosses that you don’t know anything about and you know nothing about the trai...

Elvis is on this years list of Better Beaglings Top sires. He has produced a NY SPO FC and many others with wins and places. There was a Derby...

I was curious about known bloodlines that carry the immune deficiency gene in which causes Demodectic Mange also known as "Red Mange" If you think anyone will be offended but are aware of specific known bloodline please pm me Thanks in advance! I believe you’re asking if certain line of dogs pass “...

I would love to run dogs every day, but as of right now I have a tracheotomy tube. It is very difficult to get out, and I can’t even talk. So I spend most of my time as of late on this forum, writing or emailing. It is a part of my demise that came with my cancer. On the bright side, as I have share...

One more thing concerning “worms”. Dogs can get hookworms, whipworms and roundworms from the ground or sleeping quarters where other dogs have passed eggs before, or from their mother or the milk of their mother if she was infected during pregnancy. Dogs usually get tapeworms when they eat a flea th...

Process of elimination… it can really only be 1 of 5 things. 1- One possibility {just as RunninHard stated} is that it could be a reaction to a lodged object such as a splinter, thorn, sand/dirt or piece of glass. If that is the case, the body builds up tissue around it and it gets really inflamed a...

Good info Chris, Awhile ago one of my beagles had an infection and a friend gave me some SMZ pills that worked well and cleared it up. Do you know what the "real word" term is for this antibiotic and what the dosage should be? Thanks SMZ-TMP DS is the generic equivalent of Bactrim and Septra. It is...

Ivermectin: For a dog weighing 30 lbs., the dose would be 4.5mg, once a day. Depending on the severity of the infection, this may be repeated until the parasites are completely gone. What type of parasites are you referring to? Ivermectin is used to prevent and treat various parasites such as heart...
