Description
Dog Breed: Beagle. A SWEET & GENTLE FRIEND: Approx. 5 years old / Approx. 21 lbs. Hi there, I’m Abigail! I came to Mostly Mutts from animal control, and I’m so happy to be here while I wait for my forever family. Now that Mostly Mutts has rescued me, I’m feeling grateful, hopeful, and excited for this new chapter. They say my furever family will come soon! I arrived with a healing old injury to my left eye which is being treated and is improving, see medical below for more information. · OTHER DOGS/CATS/KIDS: I met other dogs at Mostly Mutts and wasn’t ready to play with them, but I also didn’t show any aggression. I was not a fan of being jumped on, so I think more mellow dogs would be best for me. I met a female whippet in my temp. foster home and needed a brief moment to warm up, but after a few minutes and some barking, we enjoyed a calm, side-by-side walk at the park. So, if you have a calm dog at home that doesn’t really care to play, let’s meet! / Cats unknown. / I haven’t officially met kids yet at Mostly Mutts, but I did meet the younger grandson in my temp. foster home with supervision, and I was fine around him, so let’s meet and best no toddlers that I may bump over. · PERSONALITY/ENERGY LEVEL: I’m described as a gentle, precious girl with a super sweet nature, and I try my best to make everyone smile. I’m wonderfully patient for things like baths, ear cleanings, nail trims, and even my eye drops. I enjoy my time with the nice volunteers that have taken such good care of me and while I can be a bit shy at first, I’m building confidence every day and my friendly, loving, and easygoing nature is shining through. I was even sweet and calm during my photo session - just happy to be close to the people that are caring for me! / Energy Level: 3-5. · SKILLS/CRATE/POTTY: I’m a student in the Mostly Mutts University training program where I have learned the ‘sit’ command so far and I’m looking forward to learning lots more. / I did well in my crate at Mostly Mutts and I liked being in my crate in my temp. foster’s bedroom at night. / My potty habits were good in my temp. foster home when I was let out every 2-3 hours. · LIKES/DISLIKES: I love spending time with all the nice volunteers, and I won’t turn down cuddles and affection. In my temp. foster home, I enjoyed daily walks in the neighborhood and receiving lots of pets and attention. I don’t seem to care to play with toys yet, so maybe we can discover those together. I’m sure we’ll discover lots of other things we will enjoy doing together, too. / Loud noises or sudden movements can make me a bit uneasy and make me want to leave the area. Otherwise, I’m sure I wouldn’t like it if I didn’t get enough love, attention, good care and training. · MEDICAL: I'm current on annual vaccinations, micro-chipped and spayed. I have moderate tartar on my teeth, so my adoptive family should consult with their vet and consider a dental cleaning in the future. I came in with an injury to my left eye that animal control started treating me for and MM took over once they rescued me. At first, I could not see out of my left eye but with good care, medications and eye drops, I’m regaining vision in that eye! It may always have a little cloudiness, but my sweet brown eye color is coming back, too. I’m a wonderful dog looking for a wonderful family to love and take great care of me! My adoption fee is $299.00, and I’m located in Kennesaw, Ga.

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.
