The American Beagler Forum

Hi, my name is Kevin Goodwin and I too run slow AND stupid dogs. So glad that I could get that off of my chest. Thanks Mark. I just cant keep this lit lighter that I have raised in my right hand from burning my fingers after a minute or two????

Likeemfast I underesatnd precisely what you were stating in your previous post and your analogy. You believe that the fast dogs with the "intent to catch" should show up in the dictionary when a person looks up the word "beagle". You have every right to your opinion as do I. Did you notice in my pos...

Yeah Mark, they are right. I would kill them all. Nothing but culls you have there. Its obvious that they have no desire to run a rabbit. Heck they arent even smart enough to over run or create checks. Hounds like yours that spend more time running the rabbit than they spend in a check are in fact r...

I'd venture to say that if you scrubbed it with a brillo pad then you have scratched the heck out of the surface and acid cleaner wont repair that. I think that Mothers does a good job but requires way too much elbo grease. The cleaners work well but from what I have experienced they tend to dull th...

Sounds like your battery is gone. I would call TT support and ask them. They have always been helpfull to me.

Bleach and water. Spray everything down with it. As far as I know it is the only thing that will kill the virus. Keep in mind that the virus can live on the ground or other sufaces for many months or possibly years according to some vets.

Well I learned something new today. I still wonder how many baby rabbits that snakes in general kill each summer. I have seen black snakes eat a full grown squirrel with no problem.

Are you sure that its not a King snake. Almost looks like faint white strips on him. I know that Kings kill other sankes but have never heard of a black or rat snake to do it. Just asking?

Don't feel bad mybeagles. Its been near or over 100 deg F and dry here for a while and its been tough to run a rabbit. The hounds that I have been running are 1 year old also. I've had a good run here and there but for the most part the runs didn't last more than 15-20 minutes over the last couple o...

We seem to have plenty of them down here. Got 3 in the last 3 years at my place. I think that all you can do is take the chance if you are willing. I have actually come closer to being bitten than my dogs. Here is one from this year.

The black bag 24-20 is absolute junk to me. Runny stool and weight loss not to mention runny stool. Tons of waste and the sad part is that the hounds would eat half of it. The Pride 26-18 is much better and I am satisfied with its results.JMO

I have a 1 acre starting pen and I will promise you that any style hound will become faulty in a 2 acre pen. No matter how thick it is it's just not big enough. It would be plenty big enough to start pups but as someone mentioned, as soon as they cant scent a rabbit for a short distance take them ou...

Bigdogpace I see that you killed 10 dogs and caught one. Did you guys shoot at any rabbits?LOL I guess the one dog that you caught will have to do it solo next hunt.

I'm not sure of where Beech Island is but I am only a few miles from the Aiken county line here in Lexington county. This board and others mentioned hold alot of good people and good beaglers. Beaglerun and I have run and hunted together many times over the last few years and forums such as this hav...

Are you sure of their sex? It is hard to tell until the buck reaches sexual maturity. If you have a buck and a doe and they are mature enough to breed then when you put the doe in with the buck they will go at it immediately. I usually let them breed a few times which may only take 10 minutes before...
