  • Tree Dog Tuesday

    I enjoy the podcast, especially Tuesday episodes. Since listening I’ve also switched to JOY for my hound with allergies. She’s doing great on Neptune 26.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Beagles with B.J: Matt Aubrey
Q: What do you see as the main differences between AKC and Progressive Pack/Little Pack in terms of running style and judging?
AKC is more about long, sustained runs and conditioning with announced judges, while Progressive/Little Pack involve more variability and luck, with less predictability about who judges and where the dogs are placed, but it rewards dogs that can stay with or close to the pack while handling tough terrain.
Beagles with B.J: Matt Aubrey
Q: When did you first move into the AKC world and which dog started that transition?
All of the AKC world was six years ago, with a dog named Willie; Willie was the first true AKC dog I brought over, and I helped mold him to compete in AKC by combining my trialing experience with the new format.
Beagles with B.J: Matt Aubrey
Q: Matt, what did you start out at trialing? Was it ARHA Progressive Pack or something else?
I started out in Little Pack, and around that time Little Pack lost their check area, which pushed me to consider other formats that fit my dogs better, eventually leading me to Progressive Pack.
Beagles with B.J: Zach Miller
Q: How do you prepare Skinner for hunts and what's your typical setup?
Miller focuses on bracing with one other dog, keeps him limber with solo sessions, and adjusts strategies based on how the dog performs with competition; he emphasizes the importance of keeping the edge and not over-cleaning a dog.
Beagles with B.J: Zach Miller
Q: What makes Skinner special and why campaign him across formats?
Skinner is an all-around, high-performing beagle with strong jumping and line control, capable of competing in multiple formats due to his versatility and trainability; Miller emphasizes learning the dog's quirks and tailoring the approach to each format.
