A month ago, I bought a beagle puppy. I named her Olga. She's now 5 months (she was born on the 23th February 2014). She adores me and I adore her.
Last week, I went to my cousins' for a few days. I left her under the care of my parents. When I came back, she was just so happy to see me. She really is the cutest dog.

Here is a video of her: vid1243.photobucket.com/albums/gg549/wakas3/video-2014-07-06-19-11-082_zps8c565096.mp4

And here are some photos of her:

Thanks for bringing your pictures of Olga over here, Tess. She really is a sweet dog, Tess.

I have my Tatiana, and you have her "sister", Olga



For those who don't know what I'm talking about, Olga and Tatiana were the first and second daughters of Tsar Nicholas II.

D'awwww, what a cute puppy. I love beagles.

Who's the other dog in the video?

It's my other dog, Dounette. She's 6 years old.
The two of them are getting along very well, although at first, Dounette was a bit jealous. Now they're playing like crazy together.It's very funny to watch them.

I guess Dounette is happy to have a playmate.

Yes,(well, not at the beginning, but now she is). It took them some time to get used to each other.

They're both beautiful dogs. Great to see them getting along.

Cats and dogs are great pets.

I have Olga for only a month and she already killed five little chicken and three little pheasants. Of course, it's because she's a hunting dog. It's in her nature, she can't help it. But my God, what a killer she is...

[Tim]

Yeah, she's just following her instincts to hunt. Sometimes they like to hunt, no matter how well fed they are (dogs and cats both).

Don't worry, she's just trying to show her "appreciation" for you. My cats do that all the time.

Do you happen to live on a farm, by any chance? Hope she's not killing anyone else's chickens!

[Tim]

Of course, Tatiana being a full time indoor cat is unable to hunt and kill things.

I do. As we have no neighbors, she kills our chickens. And unfortunately, my other dog too likes to kill them
We will be fortunate if by the end of the year, there will be still some chickens alive.

[Tim]

Perhaps you can build a fence around where the chickens are that will keep the dogs out.

Poor chickens. Have you considered building an enclosure to keep the chickens safe and all?
