Starting Pen for use near Central Virginia

Post by Va-Beagles »

Hi follow Beaglers, At the present time I am starting and running my older dogs in the wild. But I was wondering if anyone knew of any starting or running pens anywhere near Central Virginia. It would make it alot nicer for me plus I would not wear out my hunting grounds running my dogs before the season came in. Any help would be appreciated even if I had to travel some distance to get to them. Thanks, Danny

There is a guy in Sutherland, Va. that has a nice starting pen. He charges 100.00 for a month including food. He has some of the best gun dog beagles in the area and will do it right, If you want his phone number I will try to find it. Sutherland is about 10 mi. south of Petersburg off of Us 460 toward Blackstone.
Hope this helps,
Bill

Not that I know of, I think it is just word of mouth. I should see him soon but I have been busy with baseball. I should see him at the all stars tourney next weekend. If not he only lives a few miles away and I could get his number if any are interested. Let me know.
