Description
Dog Breed: Beagle. Adoption Fee: $300.00. The first thing you’ll notice about Walker is his sweet face and how he loves to head butt you and have his ears scratched. The next thing you’ll notice is how he rolls over and wants his tummy rubbed. Only after that will you realize that he’s missing a leg. Walker gets around just fine as a tripod. He can do steps, go in and out the doggie door in his foster home, and even jump up on the couch. It doesn’t slow him down one bit. He is fully house trained, gets along great with other dogs and people, and rarely barks. He only gets into a little mischief around the house and once grabbed a book off the coffee table and brought it down to his doggie bed to snuggle with it. I mean who doesn’t like to settle in with a good book from time to time? Walker has been sleeping in a doggie bed right next to his foster mom at night and sleeps through the night and on into the morning sometimes too. He loves romping around the backyard in his foster home, and he loves walks as well, but could use a little more leash training. He was picked up as a stray in Mississippi, so no one really knows what’s happened to him, but thanks to SEBR, we got this precious little boy fixed up and he’s got a new lease on life. He's just been neutered and had the unrepairable leg amputated and will be treated for heartworms the first week of December.

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.
