Favorable Review
We own/breed/hunt and show beagles. They are a great addition to the family/hunter. From chasing small rabbits all the way to deer, a beagle will get the job done. — We rasie our beagles with our family. We hanlde the pups from a few minutes old, all the way until they…

Critical Review
We had our Beagle for 9 years and she was overall, a good dog. She housetrained easily but we always had to worry about her running away whenever she got out. Also, she wasn't that smart and was basically a dog school dropout! — — She was very loving and great with the kids, which is…

When we were ready for our first family dog, we mainly considered the breeds we grew up with as kids; Boxers, German Shepards, Chihuahuas, Shelties. We have a young boy at home, so it was important that the breed be good with small children. I started researching, reading and asking around. I was told byy a number of dog lovers and vets that the Beagle is the perfect family dog, especially for a family with small children. I'd seen Beagles and they look awfully cute, so we got a female. My Pepper is perhaps the sweetest and prettiest lady dog ever! — An easy…

We have had or beagle for just over 4 months now. We did a lot of reading and research before we got him. They are extremely loving and sweet dogs but are very difficult. The rule with their nose and once they latch on to a scent they will do anything to get to it. They are hunting dogs and that's what they do - they smell something and chase it and expect you to run after it! Our dogs name is Gordon and he is great wit the kids. We love him very much and only hope he will get a little better as he gets…

We got our beagle from the Humane Society a little bit less than a year ago. Now, I realize that many of the characteristics of our Louie will be very different from other beagles, but we really did luck out. We fully prepared that visiting a dog once or twice at the shelter would not give us a full picture of how the dog would act once we got him/her home, but we went with the recue option, anyway. — Louie is a very loving, sweet dog. He loves our three small children (ages 5, 3.5, and 14 months) and has never done anything to harm them. He loves to play…

I've had my Dolly for 2 years now. She housetrained very easily. She does however love to get into the kitchen trash, so I have a baby gate up, so she can't get into the kitchen anymore. I've had a lot of problems with her ears, she gets nasty yeast infections in them, and it has cost me a lot of money to get it cleared up. (Normal with a floppy earred dog). she has a really annoying bark, but I'm lucky cause she doesn't use it unless absolutely necessary. She's great with my children, never has attempted to bite any of them. She does like to chew on blankets, not to tear them up, but to just…

The only thing better than a beagle is two! These dogs are friendly, patient, fun loving, and affectionate. They are also very very smart. Don't believe people who say they can't be trained. Beagles are just so smart that they won't waste there time doing a trick unless they know there's something in it for them. put a few treats in your pocket though and they will sit, lie down, stay, come, and wave all day long. The energy level in these dogs is not for the faint at heart. Be ready for endless walks and hours of…

I have a blue tick beagle who is 4 years old and he is my baby. He is so loving and wants to be next to me at all times. He is just like my kid. He needs me and depends on me for love and attention. I love him so much and think beagles are the greatest dogs to have a pets. Their only downfall is they are really stubborn and LOVE their food. He will grab food from anyone if he thinks he has a chance to get it. But you cant stay mad at them because they are so darn…
