A general forum for the discussion of hunting with beagles, guns, clothing and other equipment and just talking dawgs! (Tall tales on hunting allowed, but remember, first liar doesn't stand a chance)
Hey,
I could not take that kind of money for those dogs. That would be taking advantage of you. I just picked them up at the dog pound and all I had to do was pay for their shots.

Nice very nice.Now that what I talking about chop mouth dogs that can run a rabbit.Now for the ones that said there is no different in a chop mouth or long brawl mouth running a rabbit.I would like to see two long brawl mouth run one that good with the same speed.
You asked are they two slow. Its hard to judge their speed w/ out knowing scenting conditions, etc., and some times in the road where you have you best footage, they are most likely gearing down some. But, from what I saw, I call them a 6 on speed. Nice and steady w/ a little giddy up - - definately footier than what I'd call a flat med. speed. And you could kill rabbits all day long in front of those dogs. I personally like a dog w/ a little more drive and little less "steady." But don't get me wrong, nice pups you should be proud.

What is funny is that this is the same female running a baby rabbit down a dirt road. They do what they have to do to run the rabbit. It is ok to comment good or bad on the dogs. We all have different taste in what we like about dogs. Myself speed does not mean much to me fast or slow, I just like good dogs.

I thought they did a great job. I run a faster hound but I'd feed those dogs anyday. Make nice SPO hounds.
I absolutely love that picture of the hounds in the back of your vehicle.
What do you want to catch it for.You do have a gun.I mean if I was to have a gun and the dogs are catchen it befor I can shoot it.Well by by dogs you can have them.I like to here that gun go off.

You only say that because you haven't seen me shoot It was a joke, the dogs did a fine job. On a side note if you have any of those dogs that will catch a rabbit before you shoot it when running solo and they are giving mouth the whole time let me know and I will be interested in buying them. If they do the same thing to a hare I will save tons on shells
