Duncan

DUNCAN WAS ADOPTED NOVEMBER 7, 2000

Duncan's Story:

Duncan comes to us from an area in New York where they have an overwhelming number of beagles found as strays. What some hunters do, if the beagles won't hunt, is to just turn them loose in the woods. This is what was believed to have happened to Duncan since he seems to have a very low hunting aptitude and he was found wearing an orange collar. Because there are so many beagles in that area and there is virutally no interest in adopting them, Duncan sat in a shelter on death row without any hope of getting out. We have done extremely well placing beagles recently so as Duncan's last hope, we drove 2 hours to go bail him out and bring him back to one of our foster homes where he is now safe. He is about 4-5 years old and is a typically sweet beagle. His maturity makes him a more mellow dog than younger beagles. A little on the robust side, Duncan could stand to lose a few pounds. He rides very well in the car and was an excellent passenger on his trip to New Jersey.
