Patch, My neighbors aren't elderly but one has had back surgery, one young couple just had a new baby and the other one across the road is fater then I am so I'm sure he is a heart attack candidate if shoveling snow. After I got my 1500 foot lane plowed out I cleaned out those 3 neighbors drives so ...

Thanks Jon. I figured he was gone and couldn't find the ad again but thought I'd ask. Merry Christmas to you and yours.

Do you still have the young dog you were wanting to give away? I don't have your e-mail anymore. Send me a PM about it if you do. I know a young guy that just lost his dog that may be interested.

Yeah, we got about 5 to 6 inches on the ground here in Jasonville right now and calling for 6 to 10 more depending on how this next storm tracks. Left to go to work this morning and snowing so hard couldn't hardly see to drive. Got to Vigo county line in Terre Haute and someone had turned the switch...

How many rabbits did they get a shot at that the dogs ran? The next time I went with them I'd leave the dogs at home. When they asked where's my dogs, I'd tell them that we didn't need them to jump shoot.

Sounds to me like you need a shocking collar more than the tracking collar. Of course both would be great.

BeagleBill, Please keep us informed as to what pans out on this incident. I was along one night when a farmer shot a coondog of a guy who was hunting with a friend and I. The dogs treed a coon in his barn after they ran it from a woods we had permission to hunt. He shot the dogs and killed one of th...

Randy, I know your delimma as I had the same thing last year about this time. My 7 year old male was having pancreatitis along with liver failurethe Vet said. He didn't really look all that bad other then he was real thin but almost like he was being hunted real hard. Some days he would stroll out t...

Bev wrote, "No touchier than any other line that gets bashed." "No one bloodline of dogs is going to suit everyone. Only idiots claim to own the line that does. Bigger idiots trash other men's hounds to give the impression they know something. True houndsmen don't do that. A true houndsman runs what...

My cousin and I are both looking for something different to feed but you are probably as far for us as Rockville is. Heck I'm paying 13.99 + tax for the maintenance Diamond that's not worth a dime. I'd sure like to try it for a couple of months.

I've seen the latest issue of TAB myself and as a matter of fact it is my first one. I've also got a complaint about the magazine. I've read through it several times and now I've got nothing to read with the rest of the month to go. Bev, how could you print such an uninteresting little 80 page magaz...

Asti, I've contacted Pride to see where the closest dealer is from me as I am about 25 miles south of Terre Haute. He said that Rockville is the closest place for me to get it which is an hour and a half drive. I enquired as to what it would take to be a dealer in this area but have heard nothing ye...

I switched to the Diamond also and can see no difference in the poop in the kennels from my previous brand, nor can I see any difference in anything else about them. I'm feeding the Diamond maintenance and the dogs gobble it up. I swithched from a 26% protein feed back around the first of the year a...

Georgia Beagler: I hate to differ with you but as a FULL time USDA meat and poultry inspector, I know and have worked in what is called by the industry as "Distressed Slaughter" plants. The federal ragulations were just changed this year to prohibit "Downer" cattle from being slaughtered in Federal ...

I agree with Big Dog but I do however think that someone advertising a XYZ bred dog that you don't see show up until 4 generations back is probably not selling a dog with those XYZ traits being set. If so they could very well be XYZ bred. Most of us looking at beagles are actually looking for traits...
