Description
Dog Breed: Beagle. Adoption Fee: $300.00. Bruce is a devoted little pup who came to us skinny and fearful. Once he feels safe and comfortable, he'll follow you around the house and even snuggle with you wanting ear scratches and belly rubs. Overall his avtivity level is pretty moderate, but every now and then he has bursts of energy and gets the zoomies. He is fine with cats but we believe he really needs another dog as companion as they help his confidence a lot. Bruce is fluent with a doggie door and will spend a good bit of his day sniffing around in the backyard -- especially if he has doggie company. He can still be timid with new people and sensitive to loud noises and fast movements. Patience and gentleness are the key to his trust -- especially with men as he seems to prefer women. He suffered through some persistent GI issues due to poor nutrition and intestinal parasites which we have finally cleared. He will need continued dietary support with a good quality diet and supplementation. Bruce's foster mom has been crating him when she's away and he's comfortable in the crate for a couple hours, but will do much better with a family who does not have to leave him alone very much. He sleeps on her bed at night. When Bruce first came to us he tested positive for heartworms, but he has already been treated and is now awaiting 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.
