Beagle: Is it the Breed for You?

The purpose of this article is to improve the public’s knowledge about dogs, the Beagle in particular. Many people decide that they want a dog based off of appearance alone. While this may not be a terrible thing to do if the person has the ability to accommodate all types of dogs, for some individuals the care for specific types of dog breeds is not possible. The best way to avoid any surprises after the adopting or purchase of a dog is to understand the breed and what it takes to care for it. We will go over some of the basic characteristics of the Beagle to help you get a better understanding of the Beagle as a breed and possibly a new addition to your family.

The Beagle is a perfect companion for an active family. They make great members of a team. Though they are a little more difficult to house train than other breeds and not always very interested in learning training commands, the Beagle is a low maintenance, clean dog that will live to a ripe old age. At about 20lbs and 16 inches tall, this super friendly, giving, stubborn, energetic breed is a fantastic family companion.
