I finally took some advise from an old hunting buddy. If I had taken it sooner I would have saved myself several dollars and a lot of time.He says that if a dog is really good it needs no advertising. Somebody local a trialer or hunting buddy will own it. When I stray to far from his advice I am guickly reminded that I should have been listening LOL...When I hear a guy only has a kennel full of world beaters I quickly move on.Nobody in my opinion has a kennel full of outstanding dogs.In 35 years of owning dogs I have never tried to sell a dog and list it as outstanding.I have sold a few and listed them as above average or decent.I I also have owned several sorry dogs as well.I laugh when I here that people are selling one of their best dogs because of kennel space.I don't keep many dogs but I never run out of space for a good one..Not trying to tick anyone off.Just my 2 cents on the subject.

I learned my lesson a long time ago I won't buy a dog till I see him run.... That doesn't mean you won't get burned but just means maybe not as bad...lol Guys do anything for a dollar

Was out of town, but I see things got out of hand. I can't figure out that I tried to make a poor situation better and it seems to get worse. Bonds beagles I offered you a replacement or refund and you never give me a response. I have a new litter of pups born yesterday or a young male that is ready to start for replacement options. I will make things right with you,but you drive here and bring my back my dog.

I don't think I should have too, but I will try to make this right. Some guys expect a world beater for puppy price!!! :roll: :roll:

You have to know what you are looking for and go find it. Call some of these fire cracker dog dealers and have them show them in the field. Go to some events for the stlye of hound that you are intrested in. If I dont know that someone I trust has seen the dog run or I have seen it run. Most of the time yuo can bank on it that its BS. The BS stops when that tail gate drops... Good luck.

Ken i didnt expect a world beater ONLY a dog that would run. I called you sir several times 4 days in a row and not once did you say bring him back (only i dont know what to tell you)until that little post i put up THEN you say bring him back :roll: also sent a pm and asked what you would do to right it you said you never asked for trial or to see him run SORRY but he's your dog. Then you get on here tryin to sugar coat it all in your favor! Well like i said i GAVE the dog away and as far as im concerned anyone can read the ORIGINAL post you put up and see you knew just what you were doing when you sold him. lets just close this thing out i hate to argue on here cause its not the place. Ill move on with my ( deadbeat whining life) :lol: I have every pm and the original post of him for sale if you would like i dont wanna but can put them on the board. LET'S just let it go lesson learned for me and thats it!! (Dont feel i have to but thanks for the offer) Nuff said im done :!: :!: :!:

He told me that it was fine to talk with them but if we was going to talk about dogs there may some lies told . If anyone attends a LP hunt and has a chance to meet Karle you will certainly enjoy the conversation :D :D :D :D
:lol: Karle calls them as he sees them.
According to him most dogs aren't worth shooting, and his are worse.
He is a good judge of a hound, but you have to realize they probably aren't as bad as what he says they are.

So pretty much it was thought that the dog could run a rabbit but $300 was payed for a dog that wasn't worth a hoot. Or may WRK's opinion of a rabbit dog in his mind is totally different then someone elses. Reguardless if you ripped him off that's not the way to go but next time I advise you to see it run .. if it will that is.

Easy though guys, I've seen some phenomenal dogs that are one owner dogs. Won't mess w/ a rabbit except if they're owner (original) is there. My dogs have made me look stupid enough before that I try to to brag about them and let them do the talking for me. Some days they're on, some days they're off, not much you can do about that...


EXCEPT RUN 'EM SOME MORE!!! :D
