the ones Ive had anything to with have been a lot slower to start than the JRs we hunt with. but like most hounds learn well when out as a young dog and have the opertunaty to see the mature dogs do their thing and to follow them around.

I at one point in time ran 6 beagles, however that was going back ten years or so now .Of late Ive decided to once again to hunt a pair of pure beagles instead of the usual cross we run, a terrier x beagle is our go-to breed these days & it's worked well for us, but I miss the sound of a hound when it's eating up the ground in full cry. One is a 15-month-old bitch & the other a male who's only 4 months old & shaping up well. Looking forward to breeding my pair of nutters  &  my plan is to keep all the bitch pups as this will help build up my pack to reasonable numbers .This puppy is a first Cross foxy x a beagle & as you can see he's thrown more to the beagle .
