They are about ten minutes away and want us there in 30-45 minutes (someone is there now, looking). Aaahhh... I just LOOOVE waiting .

Let us know how the puppy visiting went!

It went pretty well. Mom was very healthy, pups were a beautiful lot. There was one little female there who I kept gravitating towards, but I didn't bring her home tonight. The father had cut his paw pretty badly and had been taken to the vet, so I set up to come back when both parents would be there and after I had time to think over the little girl I liked. I saw a full sibling to these pups that they'd held back from last year. High-quality dogs, but I am just not sure...

*sigh* It has been about a year and a half since I lost my Beagle. I'd never not had at least one in my life, and now it is starting to feel like I'll never find the right one again (sighs). Oh, well... I still have one great dog to spoil for now.

Well, keep looking. Even if you don't find the beagle that you want, you never know what other dog might be out there that's just right for you. Just keep searching, you'll find the dog for you.

Thanks. There are plenty of other breeds I am in love with, but this is the longest I've ever been without having a Beagle in my life .

Did you ask the breeder if the parents were tested & x-rayed for health defects, genetic diseases and the such? Do they offer at least a 2 year genetic health garantee on their dogs? Do you have to sign a contract? Will she take the dog back IF for any reason you can't keep him/her? A reputable breeder will do/offer all of the above.

Good luck!
