I guess according to Jeremy, all of my dogs eat sh!t.

My Patch or Northway dogs dont eat crap, but every Branko dog I ever had eat crap and pissed in the Waterbowl.
This Jeremy guy had a little luck, and now his head is so big he cant even stand himself.
Ill tell you what if arrogant azzholes like this run AKC you can keep it.Ill not drive 3 to 4 hours to run with people who look down at me.Ill keep running against Crapeaters like mine and enjoying the good company.
mid ky and jessamine co is coming up someones feet are going to hit the ground be prepared for the landing it will be rough. i am glad people know bs when they read it and didnt take my post serious. the main event
What a load of bull$hit, I'll be at Mid-Ky this saturday. And I agree with my buddy Perkins. You better be packin' enough dog to back your mouth up. I'd be glad to discuss this all saturday in the field, with the dogs. Let the big dogs eat is what I say, what it is, is what it is. I told my dogs since they didnt have FC in front of their name that they were not worthy

Jeremy,
Each and every one of us has their own format that they like to run. Just because someone does not run the format you enjoy does not mean they do not have good dogs. Some of my best rabbit dogs were grade dogs. I have been to AKC trials ARHA little world and have met a lot of good people. I enjoy visiting all the people i have met at these trials as much as i enjoy trialing itself. For me it is a time to relax and forget about the daily problems that i have. I know you are overwhelmed with your recent win in akc, but remember each and every one of us is different and enjoy our past times in different ways. Respect others and you feel alot better about yourself.
I'd think if trying to create a so called "total dog" you'd know more about
bloodlines in the beagling world and the formats they run in. I'd like to think a truely total dog would be fairly competitive in a broad range of formats. To breed for this you would have to know bloodlines and the traits good and bad they carry up front and down the road. This requires alot of travel and a lot of watching if it's done right. It also requires alot of listening to what the breeders have to say and what makes them dominant in their formats. How can one determine what a total dog is without having knowledge of all formats within all registeries and what it takes to do well in them?
I'm not trying to be negative in any form but I assumed you had done this, should have, or maybe you are in the process of it.
I love the UKC hunting beagle format but it doesn't fully entail what a total dog should be in the field, imo. Now if a dog finishes in that format, PP, and SPO then that tells me something. Could be any combination of formats just used that as an example.
Once again not being neg on ya so don't read it that way.....

Jeremy,
What are you thinking? I know you are a nice guy, but you've got a screw loose. I have been fortunate enough to have a dog that has lucked into a couple of Licensed wins, but will tell you to this day the best dog that I have ever owned was a grade dog. You better know what you are talking about before you start calling people out that will hand you your hat.
i believe we all agree their is good and bad we all enjoy hounds and that is the bottom line from whatever title you arein search of you have to overcome some other competition so no matter the feat win and be humble and lose it`s hard to swollow for those who have been doing this for sometime it`s hard getting in that winners circle. i havent done it but try like hell but i am humble and like to bs a little its all in fun just like the bastard pups comment i made shoot we all who have grown froma boy have owned grade dogs if you grew a rabbit hunter you know i came as a boy in the 70`s just hit 30`s couple years back and still can remember those dogs with know papers out runnin and gunnin and cleanin had no choice the only way i got to carry a knife. this field trialing is for fun and when you take it too serious your in for alot of heartache and wont last long, i guess you would call them ribbon chasers. this year was supposed to be a big year for me but i was injured on job not a chance to rabbit hunt but 5 or six days. but have made alot of friends along this journey we call life and i have no regrets, but it feels good to read and soak in how people will stand up for what they believe in and sign your name to it. instead of sending out emails downing dogs and gossip like a bitch, yeah i am gonna publish some emails if this guy dont come clean and man up. the main event
man i cant believe i missed getting in on this. there are good and bad points in all these registries.i have been to almost all the trials being spoken about here and have enjoyed some more than others.you can be "handled" in each registry! to say one is better than the other is an "...OPINION". "RUN YOUR DOGS NOT YOUR MOUTH" is something to remember for those who bash. ego's built around dogs and their acomplishments are very childish. enjoy the sport,feed what you like, and you wont need to pay for someones opinion to tell you if you own a champion or not!!!!!!!!!!!
WOW! Well, open mouth and insert foot. I was really playing. I don't have a field champion, and as far as my post goes I was really joking. You people hit me low with some of these comments, so much for the thick skin. WOW, I'm shocked. One of my best friends just hurt my feelings as bad as I have ever been. I was going to lie and say someone else wrote, but the fact is I don't lie. My dogs are pretty good, but are not the best by far. I won't ask any of my friends to stant up for me as I made myself look preety bad, but I was just joking. All except for the cut throat part. Believe me I won't back down from anyone though, know this! I really have no reason to field trial this weekend because a lot of you to my last statment to heart. I must have hit a nervy. As far as the win my dog recieved this year you can have it . My two dogs i trial win every time I let them off the lead. I guess what i'm trying to say is I'm really sorry, but in the same instance some people can't take a joke. People can sure give them but can't take them worth a crap. I'm glad this happened though, at least I know where I stand with some of my buddies. A fuzz, pete, main event, I'm sorry to you all the most. My bad JEREMY.
It takes a lot for a someone to admit when their wrong or to apologize when they make a mistake. Many of us say things we sometimes wished we could take back. Perhaps you were truly joking with the comments you made, but as you can obviously see not many saw any humor in it. When you type words on these message boards folks can't tell whether one is being serious or whether it's in jest.
Understand though when you build something up whether it's an organization or a dog up to be perfect or better than another... there's going to be a lot there to point out fault when things don't live up to the image one builds it to be. I hope you don't think these guys were insinuating physical harm to you or your dogs as I think most are more civilized than that. But I can guarantee you when their hounds beat yours(which can happen to any hound on any given day) these folks darn well tell you that your dog got it's butt handed to it.
Your comments shouldn't keep you from attending a trial if you want to attend. But next time you make comments, perhaps it would be best to think how they will be taken before hand. Best of luck to you, hope to still see you at Mid-KY this weekend.

I hear pine mount. I don't have to prove anything with my dogs. They are what I like. I have been sent to the truck many times and sent some people to the truck. By the way one of the best dogs I have ever seen was a grade dog. I would feed him even if he ate sh*t. JEREMY
