The last time I went to the archery range at a certain time of day, someone was bringing their beagle to the dog park right next to it. That beagle SCREAMED constantly. Would run to one end of their side, scream, then run to the other side and scream. It sounded like they were in horrible agony, but that's just one of the types of howls that beagles make. Sounded a bit like this:

If it's just a few seconds, or a minute, no biggie. But imagine trying to aim an arrow that can kill a deer, at a target, while listening to that non-stop only 50 yards away from you for 1/2 hour or more.

Eventually I just stopped going that time of day but - really - some folks need to acknowledge that their dog's awesome noises are not necessarily something anyone else wants to hear consistently when they're out.
