Oh no, a beagle named Peanut?

My very first dog was a beagle named Peanut! I got him for my 9th birthday. Of course, my parents didn't get me an adorable puppy like that...noooooooo. They went to the shelter and got me a 2 year old dog, thinking that there would be no problems with training it, it would be easier, etc.

The first day I walked him around the block and he kept sniffing at the neighbors lawn. Because he wouldn't give up and started digging in the ground, I took a look to see. He had uncovered the neighbor's wallet that he lost about a year earlier! And it still had money in it!

The next day wasn't so great though. As my dad went to refill his food bowl, Peanut got mighty upset and bit his finger - OFF! As in, hanging there by a thread OFF. To the hospital, shots for infection, surgery...ugh. All I can say is that was Peanut's last day in our house. I don't know where he went either but I was scared of him too,

Come to find out, Peanut was a hunting dog that was given up because he kept eating all the stuff the hunter was - hunting.

Yes, my parents weren't too bright, and yes, it was the 60's.

Good luck Monica and Michael, she's adorable! Raise your Peanut right and remember - NO HUNTING!!!!!!

Thanks all it been a great day......so far she is very calm, I think the kids have over whelmed her .....she loves her crate she picked up her toys and went in there for some alone time...Marissa said she is afraid to go to sleep tonight that this all is just a dream


Shammy that story is to funny......so far she has not even nibbled on my finger

Peanut is such a sweet dog...the kids have been great with taking her out and they get upset when it's time to go to bed and she wimpers. Luckily she falls asleep rather quickly and I have not hear her cry out during the night. We have a night light for her too.

Her first two nights have been good nights...no accidents in her crate! She took to her crate incredibly easily...we put her pillow bed in there and didn't even have to do anything to show her where to go...she carries her toys in...and lays down to go to sleep!!! Amazing!!

Oh and we had to go buy her a sweater today cause it is soooo cold.

it's a tough job but someone's gotta do it (says the gal with 170 lbs of coonhounds and 30 lbs of beagle on the bed as we speak!)


Your little Peanut is the sweetest thing on 4 legs - what a lovely, lovely pup!!

We had a Beagle, Molly, who we put down about a year ago. She was a great dog! Enjoy!
