Dawn Carpenter+FollowAnyone else have a kitchen helper?While I whip up culinary masterpieces (or at least try to), he is right by my side, ready to catch any stray steak. His specialty? Taste-testing and moral support! Who knew a wagging tail could be so motivational? 😂 At least today he's sweeter than his brother. #DogChef #KitchenCompanion #PawsAndPans#Dogs #BeagleTraining 100Share
mmoore+FollowHow I started training my beagle to huntFinally took the plunge and started training my first beagle for rabbit hunting. Didn’t expect it to be this rewarding—or this humbling 😅. Here’s what’s been working for me so far: 1️⃣ Start with basic obedience—sit, stay, come. Makes everything else easier. 2️⃣ Use rabbit scent trails (fur or spray) to get their nose going. 3️⃣ Controlled exposure to live rabbits helped boost his confidence. 4️⃣ Gradual field practice—different terrain, short chases, and recall work. 5️⃣ Training with other dogs = big win for building pack dynamics. 6️⃣ Slowly desensitized him to gunfire—started far, then moved closer. Lots of treats, praise, and patience. Still learning, but loving the process. Curious how others run their training these days—anything you do differently? #hunting #BeagleTraining #RabbitHunting #HuntingDogs650Share
