Amen Lefgren-Lane!!! My male hound Mikey is a rescue beagle from New Mexico Beagle Rescue, and I couldn't ask for a better beagle boy! He is a born rabbit dog from Europe ... His Air Force family didn't have time for him due to a new baby, and I got all the hound I could ask for in him :D Here's a poem I saw a while back, that's fitting after watching this show.

Alone On A Chain
by Debbie Potts

I wish someone would tell me, what it is that I've done wrong?
Why I have to stay chained up, and left alone so long.
They seemed so glad to have me, when I came here as a Beagle pup.
There were so many things we'd do as a family, while I was growing up.
They couldn't wait to train me, as a companion, hunter, and a friend.
And told me how I should never fear, about being left alone again.
The children said they'd feed me, and brush me everyday.
They'd play, walk, and run me, if I could only stay.
But now my family "hasn't time," they often say I shed.
They do not even want me in the house, not even to be fed.
The children never spend time with me, they always say "Not now!"
I wish that I could please my family, won't someone tell me how?
You see, all I've ever had to give -- was LOVE, now I wish they would explain,
why they said they wanted me, then left me alone on a chain? :cry:

C. C. Baird was the minister at the Bettistown Church of Christ in Hardy Arkansas. This church is not a "mainstream" church of Christ.

I am a minister of the church of Christ and am sick that anyone affiliated with the name of Christ would be guilty of such crimes as these.

I have been the minister at Imboden since 2000 which is 30 miles away and have never met him at any Gospel Meetings or Revivals and seriously doubt his integrity as a person/minister.

integrity as a person/minister.
Integrity, Feelings or Consience are things that this person does not have and probably never Will!!!!!!

The only thing that I can hope for is that someday he will find them THEN have to live with what he has Done!!!!!!
From Field to Show and Show to Field the way it should be

I have asked some locals about what was going on there. From what I understand his kennel was where you could take your cull dogs (whether hunting dogs or otherwise) and receive $10-$20 for them if they appeared to be healthy.

This became his downfall. There were locals stealing pets to sell to his kennel. I dont think that he knew that he was receiving pets. However when this news spread the gossip did also.

I have heard people say some very good things about him also. Such as that he was very generous to charities and people that were in need in the community.

It seems that this business got out of control and lead him into things that he likely at first wouldnt consider.
