In this episode of Thoughts of a Dog Man, I sit down with my good friend Ryan Elson to talk all things beagles — from starting young pups to the lessons we’ve learned along the way. We get into what makes a good rabbit dog, the challenges that come with training, and the mindset it takes to bring out a pup’s full potential.

Whether you’re just getting started or have been running dogs for years, this is a real, unfiltered conversation packed with practical insight, laughs, and that old-school dog man wisdom.

🐶 Topics we cover:

• How to start beagle pups the right way
• Common mistakes new handlers make
• The importance of patience and consistency
• Real field experiences and lessons learned

🎧 Tune in, learn something new, and enjoy some honest talk between two dog men who live and breathe the sport.
