Re: Law on a deer dog in wv
Law is intended for wild/abandon/unclaimed dogs. Also, you are not allowed to pursue deer with dogs in WV. Some states have a deer hunting seasons for the use of dogs.

Strangest Off-Game Chase to Date
I was running five hounds last week when right out of the box I had a off game chase. It was only one dog my 5yr old male who has never run anything but a rabbit. The dog opened up about 50 yds. from my truck. The other hounds didn't seem interested, so I walked over to where the male was barking. A...

Rabbit population
Just wanted to get input from fellow beaglers from everywhere on rabbit population. I have seen more small rabbits here in Southern WV this year than in the past 5yrs. Looks like we will have plenty of bunnies to chase/hunt come fall. How's your rabbit population looking for 2014?

Re: Price
I second Bfoster's prices. The thing that gets me is how much treeing hounds bring. Squirrel.coondogs etc.

Re: advice or leave it alone
I would start a new hobby like collecting poisonous snakes. Be sure to tell your neighbor that complained about dogs barking, if they see any snakes beware one may escaped. On a serious note I hope you move to a more remote area near your current location and keep running hounds.

Re: What bait to use to catch wild rabbits
Too much clover and green vegetation out around my neck of the woods. When the snow is on a smelly apple works best.

Re: Soloing a dog
WVDaniel .........John Way is giving you good advice. I would only add that if training a rabbit dog involved only soloing this would be a simple game. IMO soloing helps but like anything else to much of a good thing may be bad. You have to watch your dogs and judge them without being partial. Young...

Re: I finally discovered my problem.
BigC, You have learned a valuable lesson. Deer running dogs are infectious. Obviously, you are serious about running hounds. My advice is simple. Start your young dogs on rabbits, shortly after their intensity picks up, go deer hunting, find a deer walk them over the track. Don't be gentle with the ...

Deep snow and cottontails
I went hunting after the last deep snow melted off. Seemed like the rabbits had disappeared. I found a few locations where something had killed a bunny. Does anyone else notice this after a deep snow?

Re: GreenBay Line
Havin had either until now. Just wanted to try something different. I have a 3yr old with Ranger Dan in him, but that's about as close I've had to Green Bay Butkus. Just bought pups when they were 8weeks old from Lowell Smith of Gilbert WV.
