Description
Dog Breed: Beagle. Adoption Fee: $350. Buddy is a gorgeous lemon beagle! He will thrive in a home where he has a safe space, is lead with a gentle voice, and lots of kindness and patience. He didn’t come from the best place, so he is super timid and takes a while to warm up. Once he does warm up to you, he will love you with his whole heart. He walks well on a harness and if you are a runner, he will gladly run by your side for as long as you can go! Buddy loves to be outside and really likes children once he gets over his shyness from meeting them. Our three year old spends his days coloring next to him and “reading” books to him. Buddy especially loves his friend Eugene and has done well at dog parks and meeting other dogs. Unsure on cats, as we haven’t had an exposure. Buddy is also very close to being potty training - he does piddle a bit when putting his leash on from being nervous, but it is getting less and less. When out walking, he does get nervous with loud noises - especially large trucks. He will look to you to make sure everything is ok and once you reassure him, he will calm down. Buddy will make a run for it if given the opportunity through an open door, so safety is a priority. Buddy is heartworm positive. He can be adopted during treatment if the adopter is local to Tampa Bay and able to transport him to his appointment.

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.
