After the pups where five weeks we had the opportunity to see the
puppies, so we went for the first time to There were two nests with puppies (4 and 7), in total 4 bitches. The second litter was of 24 September. A moving sight to see so many puppies, therefore you understand
what was our difficulty. We had the firstly choice, what does not make
choosing real easier. After the four bitches where placed together, the rank order had to be
classified. After mature consideration we had to choose
witch pup we want. This means, Gerald has made the choice, and Edith
would search for the right name for our beagle pup. We had already lists with names, but the Yes this is it, not yet. In
advance we jokingly called her Truus. We were
waiting almost a year for our beagle pup, so we had enough time for it. After a cuddle with our pup we just selected we went back to our
hometown Edith then became busy in selecting a name for our puppy. Two books
from the Library, Internet and a name list from the breeder were ploughed. Eventually we (consciously) have chosen for a Friese
name for our Puppy, she finally comes from |

Still nameless on the arm at the breeder. |
Finally on Friday 24 November 2000 it was so far. We could pick up Dieuwke,
therefore for the second time to
|
Dieuwke were the last pup of first nest what was picked up. The second nest was still complete present. You could well see that
they had had a good time at the breeder. We picked our Dieuwke right from the remained 8 pups. They were
considerable grown those four weeks. Dieuwke weighed approximately three
kilos. After forms were filled in and the necessary coffee and tea were drunk
we said goodbye to father and daughter
Breedijk.
The Breeder, mother Breedijk walked with us
to the car en after she gave Dieuwke a big hug we also said goodbye of her
and went back to The way home Dieuwke continued lie comfortable and nicely quiet on the
back seat of our car. After two stops we arrived in Hengelo. |

Our house had been nicely decorated by the neighbours with a banner and
a stork In spite of that many people knew that we became a beagle-pup there
where many be misled by the stork
and thought that we really had got
a little baby. The first days many family and friends came to visit us. They all
wanted to see Dieuwke. After a Dutch habit we had rusk with aniseed
comfits. For Dieuwke it was of course extra pleasant, because of
everyone she got a nice little toy to play with. Colleagues who also sympathised let the rusk with aniseed comfits nicely taste. |
Each hour, round the hour let the dog out was said to us, Now that is
correct! In the beginning small rounds, but in a short time the small round
became a larger round. The first weeks we met several people on the round who
lived near to our house. Dieuwke wanted to meet everyone and nicely let cuddle
herself. Other dogs also are very interesting. Small or large, she must meet
them and of course playing with the other dogs.
Our next-door neighbours have two dogs, two Berghonden van de Marremen.
These are rather large dogs, but Dieuwke likes them a lot. Unfortunately they
find her much too small and do not see her at all. If we walk together she
walks jaunty next to the two large
dogs and acts exactly the same way they do. The large advantage is natural that
Dieuwke learn to stop at each kerbstone which we encounter. The disadvantage is
that she pays so much attention at the two dogs that she forgets to do her own
needs. For this reason we run always a
bit extra.
In house it is a large scamp. Everything nicely trying outs and sees how
far she can go. Taking corrective measures
is our task. So far so good we can say. She listens well (certainly for Beagle)
and is appalling beloved. Nice cuddling is one of her largest occupations and
she lay down frequently nice against us. The toys must daily put in the
toy-box, because she wants to play with all of them, day in and day out.
Sometimes she runs if the crazily around the living room until she is
"tired as a dog", whereupon the water bowl and the feeder bowl gets a
little visit.
|
|
|
She is a good eater, who likes nearly everything. Real scraps or
complete meals with a little meat, she likes it. A little amount of vegetables is
no problem and also she likes a nice rice meal. Her needs she always does them,
on small Exceptions, nicely on a dog's toilet or in the bushes.
With water it is an unusual dog. In ditches where the water does not
come until her belly, she runs like a crazy one end to the other end.
In large lakes or other water areas where it becomes rapidly deeper she
enters the water for some cm (inches) and comes quickly out of the water.

One of her large animal lovers is Japie. Japie is the tomcat
which comes regularly at us if his mistress goes again on holiday. Japie is two weeks older then
Dieuwke. The first time that he stayed at us was a crime for us bosses.
Wildly they have run for days behind each other and have played as long they
could. Japie from the table to the
bank to the next table, whereas Dieuwke through the living room and lively
barked to him Afterwards they lay down brotherly next to each other until it
was time again to play for a while. Regularly we find them eating in each
other's feeder bowl because eating from another bowl is much nicer of course. |
With Ascension 2001 Dieuwke
went with us on a holiday for a couple days in a large tent to a farm campsite. This is very nice, the complete
day outdoors and much walks. Lying on the long line for the tent she could
overlook the complete field well and sometimes she could nicely play with our
neighbour children.
With the summer holiday of 2001 she has been to a kennel. I
hear already think people, how they can do this. We almost go to

In the neighbourhood she has
much dog friends.
Does, a sheep dog, Jet a small dachshund
(sausage dog), Bas a fox, Moos and Boy, two brothers, the rotweilers Ballou and Kylian and still much more. She goes literally and
figurative lie flat if she sees one of her dogs friends. Nice nuisance in the
high grass or through the ditches, it makes
no difference for her. She also doesn't mind to go back on the lead if
we come back in the inhabited world.
Well, what can tell more we concerning our Beagle Dieuwke.
That them terrible nice for us is and we for her. That we crazily on
her are and she on us (we hope). That we can enjoy from each other for a
long time and make a lot of nice adventures. Butt you now that already.
We want to say thanks to everyone who has contributed in an only manner
to above.
Jump in to admire our Dieuwke, however let us know when you come to
visit us.

Tip how to learn your Beagle run free.
Below the method how we learned our Dieuwke to run free without sneaking
of.
Buy a long lead (or firm rope)
that you can connect at collar. We have bought a lead of
Care that you with a housemate or Beagle Friends are and stand
approximately
Now it is time to let fall all your objections and show your courage at
your Beagle to go at a place where she can run free, therefore without a lead.
(Certainly in the beginning) at all times let run your Beagle with name and
phone number on the collar. Should your Beagle nevertheless run away to the
free world it's easier to find back your favourite dog.
Much success

The origin of
the Beagle:
The Beagle, originating from
Because the Beagle of origin were mainly for hunting small game (hares
and rabbits) used, he belongs to the group "effractions
or current dogs", also "hounds" called.
The characteristics of the Beagle:
The Beagle is an ideal housedog, although he disavows its source if
hound. He has no problem with handling children or adults. It is in house a
real "smoocher" which by everyone nicely will let
cuddle itself. The Beagle is therefore totally unsuitable as a watchdog.
Outside the Beagle turned out to be as a hound and, during the walk already
sniffing each track that he encounters. One lets the Beagle walk away
separately, then he will be no longer stop and go its own way. They are real hunters, who when smell a track
once, everything around them forget and loudly barking will follow the right
scent. Its independence becomes by us experience also such as stubborn or self-willed. He therefore very will consequently be
educated. Never let the Beagle run separately at a busy traffic route. They have totally no idea of the movement around
them and will cross the road if there is something what interests him. By its
lively character the Beagle is very playful. Give the Beagle in house many toys
where he can amuse itself. A barge filled with rope buttons, socks, tennis
balls etc. he will dismantle it again and again. The Beagle have been
appreciated terrible on company and by its self-willed character he it will not
allow to be left alone to long. Care therefore to learn the beagle to be alone
for a short time from the beginning, but make it never too long.
The Beagle needs much movement. Beside the normal walks he will gladly
wants to run for an hour or more. Care, however, for a good relation with the
boss as from the socialisation phase, so that obedience to its boss wins it of
its hunting rights.
If you have problems with consequent educating a dog and have a busy
live, and as a result, too little time to educate a dog or give sufficient
attention and movement to him, then don't start with a Beagle.
However if you want a pleasant, living, intelligent dog and you have in
and around your house sufficient space and can give the that dog also, then the
Beagle will be your friend for living.
