Beagle Homepage

I believe that you should get the puppy that is right for you. Therefore, I ask you
to research Beagles before you decide to buy one. While I think that the Beagle
is one of the most fantastic dogs you could ever own, they may not necessarily
be the right breed for your situation and family. Beagles do not like to be left
alone; they are a pack-oriented dog and need the companionship of either their
human pack or at least one other dog. Beagles also love to run and need a good
yard with an escape proof fence. Once a Beagle is out of his or her yard he or
she will be oblivious to the rest of the world and will only listen to his or her
nose; you can yell all you want but your Beagle most likely will not respond to
you. I strongly suggest that you never let your Beagle out of the yard unless you
are walking it on a leash. If your situation is such that your dog is going to be
left at home alone for long periods of time or you do not have a well-fenced yard
with room to run then I suggest that you look into a different breed. The links on
this page should help you with your research.
