The American Beagler Forum

Guys and gals ... My Iron Eagle female was shot tonight while running on my father-n-laws farm.
The guy that shot her thought she was a coyote.... hmmmm....
I guess the eagle half brother half sister cross that was planned this month is out of the question...
Better days we have seen .. and better days we will see again I am sure.

I hate it guys. I may be able to fix you back up soon.

Did this guy even have permission to be killing coyotes. I am afraid I would have to push this one. How many yotes have you seen sounding on track....that is if she was tracking. Either way this guy would be warned at the very least and charged with trespassing the next time on property. Good luck and sorry to hear it. cya, Paul

Again sorry to hear about that bro. Make him pay is all I have to say, make him pay for his recklessness and unconcern for other's property. It may be easy for you to find another dog, but not another Leah.

I hate to hear it guys those eagle dogs are few and far between. The aint making any more of that stuff.I guess I'd have to do something to him we would both regret.

I hate to hear about you're loss, with that being said there aint no way he thought you're beagle was a coyote. If it was me he would be wearing his nose all over his shirt Ive killed a lot of Coyotes and aint none of them looked nothin like a beagle

dude that sucks,we where both lookin forward to doing the breeding,sorry about your loss.

i have one female pup not spoken for out of a litter out of bandit(iron eaglexdowns brandy) and tina(elks creek gentle georgexreffets ky mtn vashti),she is 2 weeks old now.if you keep her and not sale her then breed her back to my other iron eagle male,big lake blue boy,then she is yours,free of charge.

if you are interested call me at 740-776-0001.

If one can't tell the difference between a yote and a beagle, they should not be allowed to own a gun. Sorry for your loss because of someone's stupidity.

Thanks everyone for your post. She will be missed. Danny and Crabby I will be in touch ... I am going running this am but the evening I will be returning to talk to this feller....
For those who have never met me I am 6-6 and push the 300 mark and I don't think this guy is going to argue to much and still be standing. Gonna go see what all he has got to pay for this little dog.
guns.. trucks.. lol he will pay for her.
Thanks again guys and good hunting !!

Sorry to hear that, what the h*ll was he thinking?!

Call the law, keep them on your side.

If they fail to help, well........................

Really sorry about your girl
Please keep us posted!!

That really is awful and senseless. If this guy doesn't know the difference between a yote and a hound then he shouldn't be pack'n. I sure wouldn't want him deer hunting anywhere near me. Let us know how it turns out. If he won't make it right get a hold of the authorities. No sense in getting yourself in trouble although I understand it would be easy to knock this a$$wipe up side the head.

Ditto on that. Sounds like he was trigger happy, plain and simple.

Like another said, if you mistake a beagle for a coyote then something is seriously wrong with your judgement.
