Few people can resist the winsome eyes, soft muzzle, and all-around cuteness of a Beagle. They are consistently one of the most popular breeds in America, and for good reasons:
- They're adorable. Just one soulful gaze from this happy-go-lucky little hound is enough to render almost any dog lover totally smitten.
- They're low-maintenance. With a Beagle, you don't have to worry about untangling the coat, creating a canine top-knot, or booking an appointment with the local groomer
- They're small. That small size makes this breed ideal for people who can't or don't want to deal with the logistics of caring for larger dogs.
- They're versatile. Beagles are truly multitalented individuals. They not only can excel in the conformation ring but also in such activities as competitive obedience, agility, and flyball, not to mention their natural tracking ability.
- They're sociable. Simply put, Beagles enjoy the company of human beings. They relish meeting and greeting just about any person. Their friendliness also makes them great therapy dogs.
- They're kid-friendly. The Beagle can be wonderful companions for kids. The Beagle is small enough to be able to romp with children without knocking them over, but large and sturdy enough to interact with sometimes-clumsy kids with relative safety.
If you are considering to own a beagle, or you’ve just become a new beagle owner, there are some realities you do need to fully accept.
Check out the twelve realities new beagle owners must accept on the next page! …and if you already are a beagle owner, see if you can relate!

Beagles are very loving and excellent with young children, great family dogs. They are not nippy and not known for biting. They are loyal and affectionate and are protective of family. Keep Alot of chew bones, toys and they love balls⚽! All dogs love to chew and play!

When I romp with my beagle and we play aggressively, my Luke will bite at toys we’re playing with and sometimes, my hand gets in the way — he actually recognizes that and lets go immediately. He is very cognizant of what he should and should not bite. He does like to chew a lot. He’s been through a ton of toys in the 4+ years we’ve had him, but there are 2-3 toys he hasn’t been able to destroy yet. My Luke is nothing but 100% pure love. And #9 is so painful, but it is all made up for with #4. I will never own a different breed of dog (except maybe other breeds of hounds for play buddies)
