Found this excellent kentuky video about rabbit hunting with beagles. We were checking into this breed of dogs for a potential puppy purchase. Then I heard them bark, wowsa. The video is pretty cool though, makes me want to 1. listen to more banjo, 2. hang out with these dudes, 3. thank the landowner, and 4. shoot guns while wearing orange clothing.
Here are some of the best quotes from the flick.
"We like the chase more than the .. killin. We like to watch a good dog work."
"Nice rabbit, be a good breakfast"
"I feel sorry for him, he's from michigan.... you see how he shoots funnny?"
"let em run the rabbit before we shoot it, that way the dogs get some work out"

Thanks for the sweet video. It takes me back. Because of the extremely loud and sometimes random baying, I would not recommend a beagle. Back in MO we would go rabbit huntin with beagles and our Jack Russels. Beagles were more fun. Our Jack Russels were silent. The thing about rabbit hunting is they always come back to where they started. They make a large circle and the dogs do all the work. You will probably think me a hick, but it was a lot of fun.
It looks like a ton of fun. Except for the part where it looks like people are almost shooting at each other.
Beagles are loud MF'ers. I second the not recommending one, especially in the city where your neighbors will hate you for having one.
Jack, your hicksdom is well established but we love you anyway....squirrel anyone?
