Beagle!! They're badass dogs. Ours is very docile but very friendly. Just chills, until he hears the leash. His name is Scooby but I call him meatball cuz they're thick.
Owned several but the German Shorthaired pointer was like hunting with another human, only smarter.
Exactly...... My father and uncle use to breed and train them. They are by far my favorite. We also hunt with about 50 beagles, I would say they are worlds apart in terms of skill and temperament.
If you like beagels, but not their energy, look at a Basset Hound. Not great retrievers, but wonderful trackers.
Have you ever owned a basset? I have one right now... she is 2.5 and she is a maniac. More energy by far than my Golden Retriever EVER had. She's nuts. Great hiking buddy tho.
Really? A friend of mine in MA had 4 of them. They enjoyed trotting along a rabbit trail, but not in any great hurry.
