Beagles

Beagles generally do more howling than barking. Yes, the bark is annoying- but the howling is much worse. Beagles will howl at just about anything- people walking by, strange noises, or because they feel like it. The only way to stop a beagle from howling is to train it to lay down on command. Beagles cannot howl when laying down. I do not know if bark collars work, but sonic bark machines can help. Basically, beagles are not good as pets. They are hard to train, escape often and are bad for rummaging through garbage. They also howl a lot, and will upset neighbors. Such a pity, as they are certainly a handsome dog.

beagles can live up to 5 years if so longer but they usally die when time for them to bye bye-AAWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

In AKC-sanctioned shows, Beagles are shown in two varieties differentiated by size: the 13 inch and the 15 inch. For the first group, the dog must be under 15" at the shoulders, and for the second group, they must be at least 15" at the shoulder. There is no minimum or maximum height limit.

I'd recommend taking him/her to the vet ASAP or call you vet and ask about it. Depending on what the problem is they might be able to perscribe something over the phone, but definatly atleast call the vet.

My beagle follows me everywhere, sleeps right beside me day/night, waits for me at the door until I return home and smiles when I give him any attention or his favorite belly rub. I hope all this means he is attached to me because I am sure attached to him. He's my baby! Gentle, affectionate and full of character!

i have a jack Russell/ mini aussie mix and she looks like a jack russell, in body frame and weighs 11lbs. the aussie shows up in her coat which is tricolor black white and tan. They are very smart and easy to train, also rather mellow. you do however have to satisfy two different dogs, the hunting side of the jack russell and the instinct to herd from the aussie. other then that they are lovely and make great pets with high energy.

he is probably a mix. if so it's probably fine. but 13 to 15 inches at the SHOULDER is normal

Beagles love the woods. i keep my beagle in a fenced in area where she can run around and explore. make sure you give them plenty of space.Its ok if its hot or cold. just make sure you feed them and give them water. Also they like killing little animals. They are great hunting dogs. hope that helps BYE!!!!!

The Beagle does not belong because a Beagle is shorter than the others.

I have a dog that really does not like being washed. So I tried sevral experiments and over all only 1 worked. so here it goes, if your dog has a particular toy or treat they really like, put it on a trail leading to the bathtub. put his favorite, FAVORITE toy into a plastic hamster wheel kind of thing. your dog will jump into the bath. when he is in, release the toy and that will distract him/her so it will give you time to wash it.

Yes they do have an odor and they have really greasy skin and so when you touch them you get the grease on your hands! But other than that the breed of a beagle is such a good dog and they sure do get along with other dogs so don't let that make you say if you had to pick a dog to pick a beagle because a beagle is the best dog in the world!(and they are also really popular and used to be the most popular dog but it might not be anymore but it is definitly in the top five and the best dog ever!!!)

Yes, Lyndon Baines Johnson. He had the dog with him in his innaugural parade, which would have been in l964. I only learned about this in l980 when I saw an item about if in the magazine Dog World, ordinarily light-years removed from politics.

Yes but it will appreciate if you cook the cat first

This would be extremely unlikely. A beagle will make a game of chasing a cat.

A vicious beagle is very very uncommon. Most beagles are happy and friendly.

You may have heard that beagles were bred to hunt rabbits. What many people do not know is that the beagle does not kill the rabbit. He and his friends will chase it until it runs into a hole. (What the human does with the rabbit varies.)

My point is that to the beagle, rabbit hunting is a great game.

Well it really depends on the breed. Some breeds like great danes for example can have ten to thirteen and others such as bull dogs have one or two. But the average for most dogs or mutts in about 4-7. :)

The average weight of a Beagle is 20 to 25 pounds.

Depends. If you want to have puppies definitely get a female. (no duh!) Even if you don't want to have puppies and still want a female it can be done, just with a little extra work. (AKA getting them fixed) Also, it sometimes depends on what gender you are yourself . Like if you're a female, you probably will have an easier time "bonding' with a dog the same gender as you. Hope this helps!

Yes, beagles can live outside they are hunting dogs. If puppies are born in very cold temperatures they should be brought in along with the mother. It depends on the enviorment. How cold or hot is it?Does it rain ? Is there too much Sun? Is the area fenced? Can the dog jump over or under the fence? Do you have a proper dog house?The personality of the dog? Will it Bark or cry all day? Are there preditors able to get at the dog? jumping over or diging under the fence?Is the fence properly LOCKED??

The average dog IQ is like that of a three-year-old human. The more work you put into your dog the smarter he/she seems. There are dogs that are more inclined to please you, like the border collie or golden retriever that do better in obedience classes and seem very smart.

A beagle is one of the best known dogs for families. These dogs are hounds and are sometimes used for hunting because of their fast speed. They are an English dog breed. They have short hair and are a typically medium sized dog, not too big, not too small, (when full grown.) When they are puppies they are typically small. These dogs can be a different combination of colors usually shades of brown, black, and white.

My bichon sleeps a good 17 hours a day.

Dogs don't normally soil the place where they sleep so unless your Beagle is being crated too long between outside trips, it may have a medical problem and should be checked out by your vet.

Beagles are man made. they are created so man can used them to hunt. Dogs are usually dependent on humans so most will not live with out humans. With that said, Beagles were breed to have highly developed nose. Their legs are short so they can be closer to the ground and thus closer to the scent. Their long ears are there to sweep up the ground so it can sweep up scents. Finally they have a very developed scent system.

yes they do

yes they do

I have a shep/beagle names Evelyn and she is the sweetest puppy I or anyone else has ever come across. She weighs about 38 pounds (But I over indulge with the table scraps) she is sweet as the day is long and never acts up..you are lucky to be interested in this amazing breed

I have one, he looks like a black lab. In the sun you can see brown spots though and he has a white chin and one white paw. They LOVE to dig and chew.

Beagles have short legs so there close to the ground, strong nosed, big ears to catch sents. They have three different types of sounds, whinning, howling, and a really loud bark when they are on the trail of a small gain.
