beagle

[Raymond 618]

I was out with the beagle and terrier today. I had a great bit of crack with them. The beagle and terrier switched of rabbits and switched back on a few days ago. I was a little dissapointed but, where I go there are rabbits and some fox aswell. So with the other day in mind I just rambled around the fields to see what was in store. The beagle is bursting through the tightest of cover on her belly. The 2 pups put up 3 nice runs on rabbits for a lurcher. Yes the beagle was opening up on the rabbits. I have to accept where I go there are some rabbits. The 2 worked the cover very well. Then I came to a little hill. I was standing on top of it watching the pups bushing. The beagle opened up and stoppped and repeated this a couple of times.. Then mister fox popped out and accross the field. The fox got to the middle of the field to some small cover and done a few zig zags in it and then accross the rest of the field. The terrier and beagle where shortly out of the cover and I was curious to see what the beagle would do. She opened up all accross the field and fallowed the foxes every step. I was delighted.The dogs dissapeared for a while. The beagle sounded alot different opening up on the fox compared to the rabbit. If I had a lurcher it would have got a couple of good runs. It would have been a good course on the fox. The field was fairly big.http://www.thehuntinglife.com/forums/public/style_extra/post_icons/icon1.gif

Thanks Macker, yeah Im lucky enough to have the pups I have. That one off Philip is a grand little fella. If Philip has his way I will probably have a couple of lurchers. The fields I go it seems to be the way,Beagles and lurchers. Its great when you see a pup grow up a little and you see the little improvements in them. The pups still have some way to go, but there doing well.

lovely stuff ray. beagles and all hounds will have a much angier or more ferocious sound when sounding a fox compared to hare or rabbit. by the end of the season you'll know by the sound she makes what she's hunting.

Thanks, hopefully in a few months before the end of the season I will have the other beagle out helping a bit.
