Few years ago, one of my beagle puppies determined to walk away from home. . We had her for 12 years and she was best buddy with our other dog Muttley. Fortunately we possessed her for fifteen years before she resolved it was time to move on never to return.
At her baptizing we came up with the beagle puppy name Scoobie which was far away from any other dogs name.Muttley was treated like a small baby by Scoobie or maybe I should say like royalty, as far as she was concerned she was the salt of the earth.
It was the most pitiful I had ever seen Muttley when Scobbied struck on us with his tail between his legs.One of my friend started describing me about beagle dogs and I digested all the information I could on the cyberspace .It crossed my mind that maybe Muttley would like having another big dog to look after him. Then the search began, and it was a discovery, where do I get a dog in our area .
To me the most essential point was to be able to visit the stock breeder and ask him a few questions about the beagle spawn.I had everyone at work helping me try and locate a good breeder.
My oldest and darling friend imparted a hand as well, she passed ages going through the yellow pages hoping to track down stock breeders I am a city slicker and my mate Barbara lives in the countryside. Also Barbara is very near to Long Island and we know that there were a duet of dog breeders there in Long Island..
Well. Barbara found a breeders in her area and made a phone call to the field.The pups soon arrived in early 2004 and we were thrilled when we heard the news. Barbara gave me the info and I called and talked to the stock breeders and set up an appointment to go visit the Doberman puppys.
A week later we made the short journey to see the breeder and I just couldnt choose which one I wanted.It took 4 trips out down there to choose the dog that I wanted, it was one of the hardest decisions of my life. Fortunately, I didnt have to make a determination as one of the dogs made it for me, this little fellow went straight for my shoes and started to mess with my shoelaces.
In June Smurf who we called after the cartoon became pals with Muttley (you can see we are cartoon fans).
Smurf makes everyone I know so happy with his carefree smile and wicked sense of humour.Smurf is a fast mover when it comes to the ladies and by the looks of thing we are going to become grandparents again.
