Description
Dog Breed: Beagle. Adoption Fee: $200. A year ago, Wilson was sad, injured and alone. Through the hard work of our fosters, he is now ready for a therapeutic home where he will be safe and loved. Although he is protective of his yard and his food, and doesn’t play well with other dogs, he is a “Velcro” dog who wants to be with his people all the time. He is content to sleep by your feet or on the sofa, accepting pets and belly rubs. He will come and ask for pets, but he is not a lap dog and is sensitive to being touched in the wrong way, we think because of his previous injuries. Wilson LOVES his walks and his toys, is not destructive in the house, puts himself to bed early, sleeps all night, requires minimal grooming and is 100% house-trained and uses a doggie door. He is trained to sit for a treat when you say "1-2-3" which has helped immensely with his reactivity and has made his walks around the neighborhood enjoyable. He is a happy, funny and entertaining dog who now needs parents who have experience with a dog that must be managed. He needs someone who will pay attention to his demeanor and understand the cues that he gives when he is stressed. Because of this, we will not adopt to a family with children. Come and meet Wilson and see if he was meant to be with you! #AdoptDontShop #SeniorDogsRule#BeagleLove #Fosteringsaveslives Adopters age 65 and over who adopt senior dogs (age 8 and older) pay a special adoption fee of $100.

Overview:
The Beagle is a beloved scent hound with a rich history, originally bred in England for hunting hare and rabbit. Their most recognizable physical traits include a sturdy, compact build, adorable floppy ears, and soulful brown or hazel eyes. Beagles typically weigh between 18-30 pounds and stand 13-16 inches tall, featuring a smooth, dense coat that comes in a variety of tri-color or bi-color patterns. In terms of temperament, they are known for being exceptionally friendly, curious, and outgoing, making them wonderful companions for families with children and other pets. However, their strong prey drive and inclination to follow interesting scents mean they require a securely fenced yard and consistent leash training. While adaptable, their need for exercise and tendency to vocalize (howl!) makes them less ideal for small apartment living unless daily walks and mental stimulation are guaranteed. Regarding health, Beagles can be prone to certain conditions like hip dysplasia, epilepsy, and intervertebral disc disease, making responsible breeding and regular veterinary check-ups important.
