The American Beagler Forum

BCBeagles, very nice of you to do something like that. And on a side note, one of the best rabbit dogs I have ever owned was a pet in the city that was chained to a dog house. Good people, nice house they just didn't quite understand a beagle. Anyways, he was 2 years old when I got him, house broke ...

I have a lab that has seizures from time to time. She is taking meds for them but let me ask this. You guys that use a type of sugar, do you feed it to them every now and then to prevent a siezure or just when the dog is having one?

At the end of the day, I want a dog that is going to listen to me, hunt hard for me and run a good rabbit for me to shoot if I want. I have been to one trial and it was fun and where I made my mistake was not sitting around to talk to a judge. I didn't leave pissed, my 7 year old held her own for th...

I did mine at like 4 or 5 weeks old. A new pair of snips and then sprayed on some blue coat. They did fine.

Mo. Beagler 5000, man dont be so hard on him. I think most people got what he was saying, he was keeping that dog at all cost no matter what.

rabbitearl, My last litter was 9 males and 1 female. Let me tell you, I have never had a pup like this female and to start on her own as early as she did. I am hoping she is going to be one of "the ones" I am blessed with in my lifetime. as far as picking out a pup, the ones you don't want are easie...

19rabbit52, yea you are right. I guess I assumed what you meant. I mean it could have meant, throw 22 shells in the yard and teach her to fetch. My bad. You did offer advise but to me he has to get rid of the dog and do them both a favor.

Just my opinion, which isn't much you can't mekem hunt or teach it, it's either in them or it aint I agree with this. But I have a female that sometimes does the same thing, use to annoy me but now the 2x a year she does this is ok with me. I call it the top dog attitude. If she is being out done o...

Didn't need as many dogs to go kill a sack full of rabbits either. I think this quote seems to sum it for me. It doesn't seem to matter who you talk to these days, that's my jump dog, and that one there is quick on the checks and that one there runs a 7-8 speed to keep them moving and so on and so ...

so your pup runs and hides on a 1 or a 2 and you think a 6 is the way to go? Does she even know her name or the word come? There is only 1 reason I have ever layed my dogs out on a 6 and that involves them running something other than a rabbit. Here's a novel idea, try time. You said pups, I don't k...

Everything was better 20 yrs ago, jobs, cars, and me. I compare every dog I have now to my first one when I was 15, 30 years ago. Hunt, brains, ability and behavior was a 10 out of 10. Speed 3-5. I remember going hunting with buddy who had a smoking hot akc beagle, all kinds of trophys and ribbons. ...

I worry about that with my beagle. She is a great house dog, burns a rabbit, not quite a year old yet but other than myself, wife and kids there are only a couple of people she will go up to. I blame this on our 3 yo lab that goes nuts on anyone that's stops over or walks by the house. When we broug...

I cant believe that after 3 days that dog didn't see a vet. Any update yet?
