Description
Dog Breed: Beagle. Snap has wonderful ways of showing his happiness -- from a shy tail wag, to moving closer and closer to lie down where you are sitting. Snap came to us a very fearful little beagle, but he is coming around. He is a big lover of peanut butter and would put aside his biggest fears all for peanut butter. When meeting new people Snap is very shy, but will approach for treats, particularly peanut butter. He loves a snuggly bed and really likes his crate -- but with the door open. He is really friendly with other dogs and likes to play, although has a slow and unaggressive playstyle. Having another dog in his new home would be extremely beneficial. Snap has a sweet bark that he only uses occasionally when the wind is blowing just right. He has a toddler in his foster home who frequently sits to offer him treats and sings songs to him. House training is coming along well. Sometimes he wears a belly band while out in the house with no supervision. He doesn’t even wee in the band, so it is a helpful tool. When Snap's foster family is away from home, they leave him in a closed off part of the house with their other dogs. The other dogs sleep most of the time, and so does Snap. He likes chew toys, walks well on leash and is curious and happy to explore and follow his nose. He will allow snuggles after a good long walk. Snap continues to grow more confident each day and he is a great companion. Snap is heartworm negative and ready for a sleepover.

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.
