"I enrolled Barney in obedience school. If I had known how being 'bad' would be part of his charm and would add to his success on camera, I might have given this more thought." -- Dick Wolfsie Television reporter Dick Wolfsie was walking out his front door on the way to the studio one wintry morning when he found a shivering beagle pup on his front steps. Dick placed the stray inside the house and was off to work. When he returned four hours later, his wife and young son were cleaning up what remained of the shredded couch, the living room curtains, and his wife's favorite high heels. The family would soon demand that Dick either take the dog to work with him each day or find the troublemaker a minimum security facility. So, off to the station they went.

The woman who took the call at the school was a legend in Indianapolis, running the oldest existing dog training facility in the state. I was impressed with the sales pitch, including the money-back guarantee. She had gone through about half of her spiel when she asked the breed of my pet. When I said beagle, there was dead silence on her end of the phone . . . then a good-natured laugh. "I was just kidding about the guarantee."
She explained that beagles are tough to train but that with dedication and perseverence and $40 an hour, it might be possible to overcome 2,000 years of evolutionary instinct in six hourlong sessions. Darwin must have been rolling over in his grave. ("Homeland Security")
The term "stray beagle" is considered redundant by anyone who knows anything about dogs. ("On the Road Again")

They are not the only reason I wrote the book, but they are the reason there was a story to share in the first place.
