The American Beagler Forum

I spent alot of time in New Hampshire and Vermont hunting bobcat using hounds with Leet and Willard Ware, Alphonse and Frenchy Demers and Alfred Balch. Over in New York state I hunted for cat with Jim Duell.These guys were all serious cat hunters and they ran cats like most of us run rabbits nowaday...

I kept registered Bluetick coonhounds for more than 20 years and most of them are black heads and ears.But fairly frequently you'd get one that had an all blue head like your beagle has.
The old Sugar Creek line had mostly big dogs with all blue heads.

God Bless you Alvin and thank for your witness of a Chritian man's life well lived.

Don't get hung up on the human definitions of relationship and the taboos that are related to human beings. These are dogs. We can breed them any way we want. That being said it is up to us to do all the pre-breeding research to insure that what we are breeding will better the breed and hopefully ou...

Congratulations to Mike Grosch at Bradyville Outback Kennels. Mike placed one of his dogs in each division. Props to Shady Grove Patch. Grand Champion winner at 81/2 years old and still very competitive! He has won Mississippi State,Tn. State, and was 2004 runner up HOY.Hunt em up ol man! Also congr...

I've always found it kind of funny that everytime someone has a red beagle they want to call it a "Warfield Red". First off that dog has been dead for 50 years so just how much influence do you suppose he's still passing along?LOL The other thing is that I've been told by more than a few older beagl...

I'm here in middle Tn. and it is hot and has been hot for the past 5-6 weeks.I continue to run the dogs but try to be careful about doing it. Usually very early in the morning,run them where there's water available[pond,lake or creek] easy on your older dogs,carry some water with you and don't push ...

I know he was /is out of Branko's Lumberjack x Branko's Conna. Can anybody give me any info on his traits such as nose, foot,voice,running style,trialing success,reproducing results as a stud?
Thanks in advance.

I kind of get a kick out of listening to some fellows carryon about the price of beagles and how it's so high and they're not worth it. Give me a break! Beagles are the cheapest hunting dogs,generally speaking, that you can buy. Don't think so? Go price a good coonhound,retriever,pointing dog or eve...

Let the redeemed of the Lord say so!

Hey Ricky My dogs are doing fine and I run them pretty regular. They probably don't suit anybody but me but that's okay.I like them pretty well. Ran Sat a.m. and again this a.m. and they kept one going round and round. Got a 14 month old and one that turned a year old yesterday that impress me each ...

I've read your posts on here for a long time and you sound like a dog man that knows whats going on . We've never met but probably should at some point and talk dogs and turn some out and see how they run together. I live about 10 miles outside of Manchester on 55 headed towards McMinnville. I'm not...
