Some of the Beagle Clubs run pack 
stakes and there are some very noted 
packs in this country both run at trials 
and privately owned:

BES packs have participated in 
field trials at one time or another; 
some are still active, some are not, and 
there are a great many packs- kept 
privately by such men as James P. Van 
Dyke, James. McAleer, Dan Summers 
(now deceased), Frank S. Rader, 
George Goodacre, Paul Jones and Fred. 
Horns. 
Dr. J. R. MacElroy and the writer 
have kept a pack of twenty ‘to twenty- 
five for years, and hunted privately in 
the Saratoga country. 
It is often said that the beagle is not 
a “snow dog,” that is, he cannot run in 
snow. Neither can any dog, if it’s deep; 
the beagle has this advantage and I 
have had years and years of practical 
experience. The first slight crust or the 
first snow to pack will hold him, where 
the larger dog breaks through, and it 
don’t take much to hold a beagle. If 
it is good snow-shoeing for you, so it is 
for the beagle. 
The beagle will hunt all day in snow 
in the coldest weather and like it. He 
is far remote from the lap dog that a 
great many would make of him and I 
challenge any man to prove different. 
I for one do not like “snow running” 
but I am obliged to do it. A beagle 
doesn’t need snow or “tracks” to follow 
a rabbit and I believe it is a detriment 
to the good dog, as he is apt to use his 
eyes along with his nose. 
The beagle does one thing and he 
does that well; he knows but one thing 
and he’s a master at it. He’s an effici- 
ency expert on the rabbit question; it’s 
a science to him and his sole and unin- 
terrupted occupation seems to lie in 
keeping “bunny” below ground or off 
the earth.
