Dear Lonesome Grove ...

 

 
"After losing our beloved 10 year old beagle Wags in November, our family was heartbroken. Our three teenagers had grown up with her. God led us to Lonesome Grove only twelve days later, and Max has fit in just right (we kept his name). He’s loving, playful, and smart. My daughter has played the videos from your website, and as soon as Max hears the sounds from your farm, his ears perk up, he turns his head and rushes to the phone. We know he loved his home, and we hope he loves our home as well. Thank you so much for our little Max. God bless you."

"Lucky aka Nashville aka Peanut is fitting right in at home. He's taken to snow quite well and chases around the cats all the time. He loves anybody and everybody he meets and loves taking walks. He loves his naps and treats and enjoys sleeping in my bed. He knows I can't stay mad at him too long when he gives me the "beagle look"."

Merry Christmas, Corina (December 22, 2024)

"Mr. Everett (known as Dusty to you) is going to be 1 on the 26th! This little guy has been the light of my life. He is full of energy. And naughtiness. Lol. He knows how to test my patience and how to be the bestest boy too. I don't know what I would do without him. He loves chewing on bones and ripping out squeakers. He loves sitting in your lap (when he wants to) or just being on his own. He makes me laugh daily with his antics. He has quite the personality. He loves to annoy his older, but newer, brother Joe. (Joes is also a beagle, mostly). He is doing so well, and I am just so happy to have him. Thank you for such a great beagle boy!"

Dear Lonesome Grove ...

 

We are supposed to be preparing for Champ’s 10th birthday today. His birthday cookie was ready. His presents were ready. Yet we don’t get to celebrate with him. Champ was perfectly fine until he woke both Justin and I up in the middle of the night and then showed us he wasn’t ok. After hours at the vet ER it was determined that he had cancer mass on his liver that ruptured and was internally bleeding. Something we couldn’t fix to make him stay with us longer. Champ started with Justin and I and we both sat with him as we said goodbye to him.

So many people knew Champ with mainly remembering his shenanigans. But what I remember most is him growing up with me… from the support he gave me while Justin was away on his first deployment for a half a year, to getting married, to when we moved to our forever home, to welcoming two little sisters, to then making many memories as a family. He’s been there with me through all the highs in my life and all the lows. He laid by me at night while I cried myself to sleep and he knew when I needed his comfort. Little does he know that he saved me. Justin always said that even though people were at the house, if I wasn’t there he was waiting for me. I was his person and he was my forever dog. It’s honestly not fair and I wanted more time with him but I’m trying to trust God’s plan. Please keep our family in your thoughts and prayers. And thank you for bringing him into our lives. We are forever grateful. He was the dog we needed in our lives. He was the sweetest dog, but found himself getting into some trouble whether it was ripping up blankets and stuffed animals to opening all the Christmas presents. We even had to put our presents in a closed tote because he would find them, get excited and open them. He loved presents. He loved to lounge on the couch but also chase bunnies and was always out and about with that nose of his. He was the best dog. Thanks again for bringing him into our lives.

Champ, I loved you for your whole life and will miss you for the rest of mine.

Mason is fitting right in! I think we are sticking with the name as well. He reminds us so much of our Kobe, who we miss every day. Thank you so much again for every thing! I’m so glad this all worked out. Hope all is well, and Happy Holidays!

Matilda, now named Layla is fitting right in here at the ranch! She is full of energy and fun and is not a bit scared of cows. 
 
Our Aussie, Trixie, already came to accept her, as did my dad's dog. So now morning chores are quite lively with the 3 dogs in a side-by-side!
 
Just wanted you to know how much we love this pup!

Dear Lonesome Grove ...


"Our handsome man Kobe sadly passed away last night, peacefully at home. He was diagnosed with lymphoma in September. We are grateful for the time that we had with him, and glad we were able to have him here for his 12th birthday, on 10/31. We are heartbroken, and miss him so much already. He was the best pup we could’ve ever asked for. While we have our other beagle Kenzie, who is 3, the house still feels so empty, and she lost her buddy. We couldn’t be more grateful for Lonesome Grove Beagles for giving us the best companion for 12 years. He was with us through it all. We will cherish the memories forever."

Love,
Kobe's Family (November 16, 2024)

I just wanted to let you know that Finley Jr (aka Gus) is the bestest fur baby ever!!! He is so stinking cute and such a cuddler! He obsessed with treats, playing with his sister, Athena, going for long walks, and snuggling. My life is literally complete with this little guy and I’m so very grateful to be a part of his life ❤️

Thank you so very much!!

"I wanted to let you know that we reached Minot late last evening and Harper is settling in just fine. Once we got them out of the car and into the house, Willow and Harper began to play together. Willow loves Harper now and looks for her everywhere in the house. They're right now sleeping together on the couch.

Thanks again for taking such good care of both Willow and Harper. They're amazing and we love them so much."

"Sharing a few photos of Dakota (now Arwen) and Dodge (now Bilbo) as they are growing quickly and have adjusted very well to our home! While you would think two puppies are a handful, it’s actually easier to train two at a time! They are so much fun and such happy puppies!

Love these two new members of our family! Thank you Lonesome Grove!!!"

"Gary and I wanted to let you know that sadly, Elanor, who was almost 12 years old, passed away today. She was diagnosed with Transitional Cell Carcinoma in her bladder about 2 weeks ago and we tried drugs and were going to do an ultrasound this week, but she got worse quickly over the weekend, so we made the hard decision to let her go. She was an amazing beagle who went through a lot, and we will always love her dearly. Thank you for trusting her to our care.

On a lighter note, Willow (Allie) is 9 months old and maturing into a sweet young lady. I've attached a recent photo of her and also a screen shot of a Twitter post by an account that calls itself The International Journal of Beagle Facts -- they featured a puppy pic of Willow a few days ago, so now she's famous.

We love Willow very much and I'm sure she misses Elanor already. I'm considering getting Willow a beagle puppy playmate, whenever you have puppies available again, so I'll be checking your web site.

Just wanted to update you on the two pups and thank you again for your excellent care of these beagles."

"We just wanted to thank you for our dear Lexie (Juliet from Nov 2010). Our family said Goodbye to her last week after 13 wonderful puppy years. She lived a very spoiled life -- full of cuddling, college football, camping, and probably too much stolen pizza. She was the very best of us."
