Even city beagles who have never met a wild rabbit in their lives will take off after one, given the first opportunity!
my two older dogs came in about daylight, but my younger boy beagle is still missing.. No i don't believe they're fixed when i got them from another man 3 years ago, but tried mating them a few times and no pups. They just love rabbit hunting bad and like to go when they're ready. Hope i can find my young boy dog today and if i do i will put him in another pen so he won't be learning their bad habits..
