well looks like his name is going to be Jack. because if he ain't sleepin' he's jacked up full of energy. officially, Ira Stations jump em Jack, but we'll just call him Jack for short  :)  spent almost a year looking for the traits I wanted in a dog, hopefully this guys got them.mostly yellow creek bloodlines. he should hold a good line with medium speed....just right for bow huntin" !!

"Jumpin'" Jack is a fine name for a beagle, Larry.

Love them beagles.  He's not fat, just well fed, and besides, he's 12 years old. Still likes to chase stuff in the woods, though, but he's a bit slower nowadays.

There is not much that is more fun that hunting beagles. I used to handle the dogs for an old man who had at least 100 of them. We hunted 10-15 at a time. Release the hounds! Lot of fun.

However, not much fun if they run a deer and you have to go catch them.

I climbed up a very high tree stand one day and watched the beagles run a swamp rabbit for 30 minutes - it was very enlightening. The rabbit doesn't run much - it darts off and hides until the dogs find it, then repeats indefinitely.

There is nothing like the thrill of a young pup working a line, especially a pup you worked with for months before the season.  Chasing hares makes my winters fly by!  Lotsa luck!  I suggest you whistle train it so you don't spend worrisom nights trying to find it.

Shawn, I might take you up on that. we've got enough rabbits around here to get him up and going, but it'd be nice to expose him to some real rabbit country.

Very cute pup "Hunter" would be a fitting name for what he is bread for.Or you can get in touch with the feminine side and call him "Love".That would go over great with the guys...LOL

one of my goals for this year: To get a rabiit... nice looking pup. I've been seriously thinking of a lemon & white pup! My dad had one as a kid & he was a great dog. Probably why I am partial to the lemon & white   :)    Good Luck!
