The best kind of dog is the one you love. The more of your life you
share with the dog the more you will be bonded. Doing things that takes
teamwork builds a pair out of two individuals. Go to your shelter and
pick the dog that has the qualities you want to live with.

And: pretty much any dog will like gravy. Not sure why that's
a selection criterion, though....

I thought that odd that the person was very helpful in his response
but did not mention about what dogs do like gravy. I feared maybe
there was a channel rules against it at that point. I make nice gravy
and my wife has stopped enjoying it so you could say part of this
"man's best friend" duty would be to enjoy gravy with me. I should
think he'd get jealous. My wife has stopped.
I have possibly decided on a beagle. Are there lesser expensive
beagles or do they all cost $500 at the puppy level? I can reveal my
state if that helps. State as in "these united..." not as in "steam".

You can find beagle puppies all over for $35. Do you want it registered?
(ok $200) Do you want champion bloodlines? hunting bloodlines? health
testing (good luck!)
Unless you are buying proven bloodlines, out of tested champion lineage
(generations.. not occassional spatterings) you can find beagles very
cheap. The only ones over-inflating the value of beagle puppies are
puppymillers and puppy mill brokers.

beagle rescues too, since most folks don't know what they're getting into
when purchasing a beagle.

Um, just a guess, but you're some kind of a pervert, aren't
you? And "gravy" is a euphemism for something else, right?

Yeah no he's for me and not for show dog things. He just has to be
friendly, no diseases that affect his skin, he likes my gravy as I
say, and be a truer friend. I think I can improve on current dog foods
with my gravy additions and it would be really nice to see him enjoy
it.

I thought that $500 was a lot when my neighbor quoated me that. He
breeds them. $35 is much less. I suspected that $500 was inflated. I
think my neighbor sells these dogs at inflated prices to finance his
"activities", if you know what I mean.
Is Blue a good name for a Beagle? I thought about calling him "Ears"
but if you say "Come here ears" that's hard to say.

Whatever your motivation for getting a dog, I hope you agree that
everyone deserves to get a healthy dog. So, put some thought into it,
research what diseases the breed is prone to and see if you can find a
responsible breeder - one who does their utmost to make sure that they
are producing healthy dogs. Here is a good link on how to find a good
breeder:
http://www.dog-play.com/ethics.html
If you don't want to go to the trouble, find a dog for yourself at the
local shelter or rescue. You will be taking a dog that needs a home and
not supporting people who breed just to make a quick buck, with no
consideration for the health and well being of the dogs they produce.

don't want to, either, so let's let it go by.
rescue dogs are the best! mine was already totally housebroken, not a
chewer, not a barker for no reason...he's just perfect for me, and we are
both so happy! I could cry when I think how close this purebred dog with
such a fine temperament came to being...well, you know...
His foster mothers did a fabulous job of "cleaning him up" and caring for
him, getting him back to believing people would be good to him and not
neglect him in the backyard on a rope 24/7...poor little guy. Now his coat
gleams, and he's spoiled rotten, w/in the context of being kept on a healthy
diet.

That is an unwarrented assumption. I like to cook and experiment in
the kitchen as my wife spends many late nights at work. Such does not
make me a pervert. So to that I shall say I would not dignify such
with a response.

*WHEW!!!!!!!!* You know, in any breed, excessive gravy can cause
pancreatitis and overweight conditions

Sorry, but given the way you've worded your posted articles in this
thread, there's definitely something up here that doesn't have
anything to do with pan drippings, stock and a thickening agent. I
refuse to take responsibility for an unwarranted accusation -- you
may or may not be a freakin' weirdo in real life, but you're definitely
playing one on Usenet.

The moderator should have your membership withdrawn from this group.
Go work out your frustrations about your inability to take pleasure in
simple friendships with dogs or perhaps jealousy that my life is
complete and yours lacks the advantages of my life. In short, I have a
beautiful wife and soon a faithful dog and you don't so go play in
your own sandbox.

Look, "Chuck," the more I dig into this, the less likely it
seems that you're a pervert -- but the MORE apparent it becomes
that you're a loon. Now, then: I apologize for assuming the
former, but really -- if you want to avoid misunderstandings,
perhaps you shouldn't publish stuff like this:
