Great name. Great dog.

And via MSNBC, the dog in the lower left is a member of the extended “Minuteman” family, Ch.Beauideal It’s Raining Men, bred by Dr.Lisa Sarvas, who grew up a few miles from here, at BIggar, SK. and now practices veterinary medicine in North Carolina. “Manny” was first Award Of Merit in Miniature Schnauzers.

  1. Good stuff!Hoping to see some pictures of your ‘Minuteman’.Have you met Uno in your travels?
    Our beagle, Cooey, doesn’t relax! She’ll be meeting up with Remmington soon for a shotgun wedding.Hopefully she can learn to relax when he comes to visit.

  2. “Hey, how come they all look the same?”
    Remember that every time you read a “news” story uncovering the little known fact that purebred dogs may be “inbred”.
    “Inbred purebred” isn’t exactly like “water wet”. More like “water water”.

  3. Don’t have much to say except that nothing is finer than a good dog. I picked up a belgian
    sheepdog (all Blck) puppy for my son last saturday and now the fun begins.
    Thank you for taking the time to show us some wonderful pics mel

  4. Should be a law that every kid gets to have a pet to love and look after.
    Solve a lot of problems.
    It has worked on criminals in jail, but would work much better on the little gaffers.

  5. I’ll stick with my Shepherd/Husky crossbreed. She has the best of both worlds (smarts, energy and affection) and no health problems.
    She would also rip the throat out of that Libtard-inbred “Kyoto” any day.

  6. Beagle/Doberman?
    What about a Chihuahua/Newfoundland?
    Right about the Beagle attitude, the first dog to bite me was a Beagle.

  7. Best dog I ever had was a German shepherd,growing up it went every where my twin brother and I went.When we both left for the military I think a part of his sole left as well,he was never the same.I still think about him and miss him like a lost family member.

  8. Watched the whole show,and loved every minute!My Newf watched with me,and he was quite infatuated with the gorgeous Border Collie.Nothing finer,or more stress relieving,than spending time with my four-footed boys.Loved the little Uno,he just made me smile,and isn’t that the whole point?

  9. That was a great quip from Dion,that was the first time I actually ever heard him stray from script,he shouldn’t.

  10. How come the judges feel the dogs’ balls? Is it to check that they’re real? If they’re fake, is that an automatic DQ?
    Interesting also that most or all dogs appear to be male…
    Forgive me… I’m dog-show illiterate! ๐Ÿ™‚

  11. Hang Hang On Snoopy, Snoopy Hang On.
    I’ll be damned and a Beagle too boot. That’ll do Uno, that’ll do.
    ,

  12. Beautiful Beagle.
    Beautiful gussied up Schnauzers too, if only they could stay that way without a lot of work!

  13. Where does Dion enter into this thread on dogs? Did he show his dog Kyoto?
    Sorry, I’ve known some fine dogs, Dion is no dog.

  14. Ah! I get it.
    hunter + hunting gun + dogs from above = small dead animals
    Very cute, Kate.
    Attention hunters: Would you aim for the head or the heart?

  15. About time Beagles get their due!!!
    I am a Beagle owner and they are as sharp as a whip and most gentle dogs in existence ๐Ÿ™‚

  16. I wonder if WK owns a beagle, he sort of has the attitude.

    Actually no, more like a Bichon. All bark and tiny little fangs and no bite. In other words, an annoying ankle biter that you eventually kick in the teeth and it shuts up.

  17. Doug,
    How dare you degrade the beagle breed by comparing their personality to WK. He may look like the backend of a Beagle with its tail up but that’s where the resemblance ends:)

  18. Doug, hope you never own a dog, the very idea of kicking a pet dog in the teeth or anywhere else is repulsive to me as a dog lover. You’re not serious, right?
    Kinsella could reincarnate as an ankle biter, he’s already good at nipping, the transcending would be smooth.

  19. [quote]How come the judges feel the dogs’ balls?[/quote]
    They are checking the dogs licking ability.

  20. My brother and I noted his dog licking himself,I asked him “wouldn’t it be nice if you could do that”,to which he responded with a resounding “yes”,to which I replied”go ahead,he won’t bite you”.

  21. I love Beagles but I swear they can fly, I use to dog sit one named Omar and I had a fully fenced yard with 12′ of chicken wire undergroud and that bloody dog always got out of the compound. I’d hear him howling as he scented his prey, to funny.
    My dog was visiously attacked this afternoon by the meanest little critter ever to walk of four legs. Tucker is a Apso, and he hates black dogs. He had my dogs back leg in a tight grip, drew blood. His owner told me to kick him next time, hello the dog weighs three pounds I could kill him if I kicked him. Thankfully my mutt doesn’t mind the odd attack by midgets breeds. He just stands there waiting for them to finish biting him.

  22. Liz, if you read my previous posts you will have your answer.
    Ankle-biters are not dogs. They are glorified furry rats and kicking them in the teeth is what they deserve. Kind of like whining, self-loathing liberals.

  23. doug
    I have an ankle biter, and he would damn well let you know your ankle wuz bit
    pound for pound one of the strongest dogs there is
    and his name is CHOMPER, a well deserved name:-))))

  24. Doug, I have three yorkshire terriers…. kick one of them and find out how much I prefer my dogs over humans, especially lefty turds like you… go ahead (do pick out your wheelchair ahead of time – it’ll save you grief in the long run – and yes, I’m big enough to whup your ass, boy)

  25. An FYI for those that love dogs, the Uno and his pals will be on OLN Saturday and Sunday evening. Three hours each night.

  26. Every Texan’s heart swells with understandable pride as one of our native sons is singled out for this honor.
    As a Texan and a Beagle, K-Run’s Park Me in First is truly a dog of distinction.
    When the litany of the great names from the Lone Star State are recited, K-Run’s Park Me in First will join the ranks of those other immortals that are far from our praise.
    Numero Uno, Uno!

  27. Great looking dogs … but my dog is the the best, Husky – Golden Retriever cross … he knows when I need to pet him.
    BTW: Judges don’t need to know how to count to two for him.

  28. UNO: You had me at first bark.
    I am not a dog person but my wife IS… but the beagle touched my heart when I saw its raction after the announcement that it had won.
    Sheer elation..kinda infectious wouldn’t you say.
