Kent Rollins is a man from a different age, when cowboys rode tall and good meals were had out of the back of a wagon. He has a YouTube channel where he shares his traditional recipes with a solid helping of western flavor. More on Kent Here
In his latest episode Kent has more than a few kind words to say about an adopted Beagle named Bonehead who shares his tail wags no more. Watch
Kent has started a campaign for the Lincoln County Humane Society in New Mexico so other scruffy but loveable canines get the same opportunity at a perfect dog’s life that “The Beag” got to enjoy. Here
That was a rough one. RIP, Beag.
They remind me of two beagles my Dad had for rabbit hunting when I was a kid – Hank and Dingus (Dirty Dingus McGee).
I loved that “Swamp Music” they sang while running rabbits and raccoons:

My one regret in my life thus far is that my furry friends weren’t blessed with longer life spans.
Kent is a man that is living the life we all wish we had. Doing what brings him joy along with family and his taste testing companions.
He does keep the best company. Sorry for the passing of a great companion.
Our very first dog when I was little was a beagle named Bugle for obvious reasons.
Oh my gosh! Anyone who has had a dog knows what unconditional love is!
I especially like the collar under the bowl tribute!
Kent does some really well-done videos that I have watched over the years, but this one is really special. I only wish I had as many pictures and videos of our dog who was truly loved unconditionally back by our whole family for 18 years!
I understand as I’m still missing my 19 and a half year old cat, also my best friend. His bed is still under the end table and no thoughts to ‘replace’ him yet. I miss him a lot and probably always will.
The love of an animal friend is the purest.
Like the old joke about Washington DC: If you want a friend in Washington, get a dog.
The hardest part of having pets is losing one.

I get ya. Each pet is unique and each one is in essence irreplaceable.
They do silly things that make us laugh. And that makes them unforgettable.
I recently lost my beloved service dog of nine years. Mystique was the most perfect dog I ever knew. I have a theory, hopefully not controversial, that the unconditional, non judgemental, absolute devoted love our dogs provide is an example of the divine sacrificial love of Christ.
This is why they are with us for such a short time, to remind us that the devastating grief we feel at their passing is but one/one millionth of grief our Beloved Mother experienced at the crucifixion.
In no way am I comparing Christ to a dog, rather the experience of love, loss, and grief is meant to remind us of the charity and grace their love illustrates to us as an example.
We sinners are completely unworthy of the time we do get with them. Dogs, unlike humans have no guile, no lies, no subterfuge, no envy.
I believe the pain of their passing is to instruct us in being closer to God…
RIP Beag. All dogs are great, but there’s always that one that was special, broke-the-mold, amongst dogs; mine was Kane the Magnificent. Too, I agree with Cisco.
