Hello all: I am a faithful reader of the FML. I respect everyone's opinion and welcome advise. Some time ago I asked "what breed of dog is best with the ferrets" I received over 70 letters and found that many dogs get along with the ferrets (even hunting dogs ). The main thing was to bring the dog into an established ferret home as a puppy. With this information in mind. I am wondering specifically about the hunting dogs. My husband wants a beagle to go rabbit hunting. So from those of you with experience in introducing dogs to ferrets and especially any regarding hunting dogs...Any advise? My deepest sympathy to those we have lost your ferrets and still feel the void in your family. My best wishes to those who have new additions. My prayers to those who have sick babies. My hopes of finding those that are lost My dreams of placing needy ferrets into loving homes. I read these posts everyday and just thank heaven that my family is safe and healthy.
