Poor Romeo, lol.
The beagles became too much for us and we passed them on to a relative on the wife’s side of the family (an uncle). He had a farm down in SC. The little guys had long and happy lives running around down there. Both gone now. Always felt bad about that, but we did them right by “transferring” ownership.
The Brittany died in his sleep from old age. My SIL got a Collie.... wonderful dog. My brother said he’s never had a non-hunting dog before. She doesn’t roam, follows my SIL around, lies down nearby if she’s reading, gardening, etc. No worries with the chickens (the Brittany was a major chicken killer if he could get to them). The Collie has a big bark & she sounds off when people come to the door so she’s a good deterrent. Beautiful, but LOTS of hair!
So glad you found a home for the beagles where they can do what they love to do.
