The American Beagler Forum

I had heard that Hootch was a pretty nice dog. Good luck with your pups.

Are your pups out of Pine Run Hootch? They do look like nice pups.

I have not been a member of this board anywhere near as long as most of you but I check it pretty much daily. I started rabbit hunting with my dad and brothers back in 1969 when mom and dad first bought the farm in Northeast Ohio. I also do not watch Facebook nor have any desire to. Hope all are wel...

I also check this site daily and as I have posted before, thank you very much for all you do to keep this site going. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to everyone!

I appreciate reading all your posts on this forum. Always interesting and well written.

Blew the dust off the old Webster's Dictionary and looked up "bloodline", one line definition - "Direct line of descent, strain; pedigree" Checked the trusty Thesaurus, "One's ancestors or their character" So if the dogs I own all have good line control, know where the point of loss is and consisten...

Thank you sir, one of these years I will make one of your trials. Again Happy Holidays!

C'mon Joe when are you going to post results. Tis the season to give. Nobody down here in Florida is calling you Scrooge, yet! You know there are a few of us unlucky fellows who don't live in paradise like the rest of you and live vicariously through the pics and postings on here. Hope everyone has ...

Bear I have never met you but gotta love ya man!

Thank you for posting pics and results. I enjoy tracking the winners and looking at pics. Again thanks for your effort!
