Sorry - not from Indiana here but in the same situation as you. I'm in Kansas and altho I see other Beagles here in town like when I go to Petsmart, never hear of a group of Beagle owners meeting here. It sure would be fun.
Isn't Uno a great looking Beagle - he was the one that got Best in Show at Wesstminster but sadly yes, there is a fear that his winning BIS will increase the Beagle's popularity (a good thing) but not everyone can handle owning a Beagle and that will increase there numbers in rescues and shelters (a BAD thing). /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/cool.gif
