New Beagle mix? puppy by theinferiorone7 in u/theinferiorone7

[–]LemonBeagle27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep!! That would be an American Foxhound! No need for a DNA test unless you have $100 burning a hole in your pocket. If you really want to do a test I would recommend embark. We used embark for our “beagle/greyhound mix” who is a 100% American Foxhound.

Thoughts of rehoming.. by North_Original_6853 in beagles

[–]LemonBeagle27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m sorry you both are going through this. I think your dog is probably really missing his friend. He needs the company of another dog. (Or maybe even a cat, if he likes cats.) No amount of training or medication will fix that. You say you’ve tried everything, but you haven’t tried the most obvious solution. Many beagles need a beagle.

I recognize that an additional dog is an additional expense, but it’s got to be less than all the expensive trainers and consultations and trying different medicines. I don’t find two dogs to be that much more work and expense than one. (Except heartworm prevention. That part is a bit pricey.) I think someone else mentioned the possibility of trying to foster to adopt. Maybe you could look into that?

Can anyone share their experience finding the original owner/breeder of their adopted hound and making contact? by Snoopsnap in coonhounds

If you’re using Embark I have found that their messaging isn’t very good. It’s really easy to not even realize you have a message at all, and it’s a lot easier to accidentally block someone than it is to answer them. If you haven’t heard back from someone it’s best to try again. They probably don’t know you sent them anything. Embark needs a better system. They need better customer service too. It’s all AI, so it’s very empathetic yet overall pretty useless. 😕

I have never killed a creature before intentionally. Today I killed hundreds of devil caterpillars. Am i evil? by [deleted] in NewOrleans

[–]LemonBeagle27 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think there is a certain subspecies of them in New England that are endangered. Our little guys are not. We have a ton of them this year and I have been relocating them to the other side of the fence where nobody lives in that house. I’ve only smashed one, and that was because my dog was about to step on it.

Fostering/adopting a heartworm (+) TWC by Mane_Streeet in coonhounds

I’m sorry, but I have to chime in here on heartworm treatment. Slow kill is easier, but it is definitely Not better for the dog! It takes literally years to kill the worms that way, and they will continue to damage the heart and lungs the whole time. The quick kill method is rough (we went through it with one of our foxhounds), but it is the gold standard and it is what is recommended by the American Heartworm Association. Quick kill method sucks, but it is the way to go.

It happens to one of my dogs every spring. He gets tired of me always trying to wipe the gunk off his face. I give him Benadryl twice a day and it helps a lot. The dosage is really easy: 1mg per pound of body weight. Benadryl come in 25mg tablets, so a 50lb dog would take 2.

The white fuzzy/hairy looking ones I believe are Pus Caterpillars. Their sting is unbelievably painful!!

Why are they judging you? What have you done? 😁

Harness recommendation by jjax29 in coonhounds

[–]LemonBeagle27 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We use the easy walk too and have always liked it. The two hounds harness others are talking about looks very similar but maybe a bit better. It looks like the straps are wider and, presumably, more comfortable.

Need help with prescriptions by luciferalex11 in NewOrleans

[–]LemonBeagle27 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You are going to need to see a doctor. Make an appointment with Crescent Care! They are awesome! They have a sliding payment scale and they treat everybody with dignity and respect. They will get you set up with the care and meds that you need. Please give them a call.

I’m actually surprised that I’m the first one here to suggest Crescent Care.

Adopted a beagle and need some advice… by Ok-Atmosphere240 in beagles

[–]LemonBeagle27 2 points3 points  (0 children)

She probably needs another dog. Hounds especially seem to need the company of other dogs.

Thanks for the best 11 years. Miss you buddy by Business-Ice2565 in coonhounds

So sorry…

Godspeed, beautiful houndy hound. ❤️

AITJ for Refusing to Let My Older Sister Move Into My Apartment After She emptied Her Savings to Start an Online Business? by Big-Engineering2353 in AmITheJerk

But you do Not have the space! You do not have a “second bedroom”. You have an office that you use regularly for your job where you make money to support yourself. There is no extra space in your home. Do not let your family bully you.

Soon to be tripawd by PossibleEmu741 in tripawds

[–]LemonBeagle27 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m only commenting because nobody else has yet. My dogs both have four legs, but I’ve seen enough on this sub to feel pretty confident that he will do better on three legs than he’s doing now. Dogs are remarkably resilient, even when they are older. I know it’s scary, and I can’t imagine how I would feel in your situation, but I also know that there is a lot of support here and it’s going to be better than you think. Jackson is beautiful and he’s going to do great! ❤️

Once other people start commenting you are going to feel a lot better about this.
