My wife brought this guy home from a pet rescue (we have taken rescue dogs in the past with success).  He's  8 weeks old at the picture.  They claimed he is a lab/beagle mix but we are pretty sure he's all beagle or mostly beagle.

My wife said I could teach him to hunt.  I am not much of a rabbit Hunter but am going to try to figure out how to train for blood tracking.  I have some experience training pointers on birds.  Hope this guy works out!

His nose is always on the ground....and you can tell he has a full head of steam.

I love the white tipped tail.  It will be highly visible in the field


 
 

I may be just me but, I've never seen a white and black beagle. However, If he uses his nose as much as you say he does, I bet he will make an excellent tracking dog.

Cute looking pup, let us know how you make out!

     

Nice! Nothing but rescue dogs for me.

We got a rescue recently that was supposed to be lab/Bernese mountain dog, but approaching 9 months she's topped out and looks and sounds a lot like a beagle.  I'm Going to try and make a tracker out of her too, but first mission is making her a great family dog.
