Description
Dog Breed: Beagle. Adoption Fee: $300.00. ADOPTION PENDING Pretty and petite, Penelope looks at you with a sweet expression and a little head tilt seeming to ask, "Hi, who are you?" She is gentle and curious, silly and playful, and definitely goes at PUPPY SPEED ...even though her age is estimated at 4 years. Although she is getting better, Penelope is not yet comfortable with lots of cuddling. Her shelter paperwork indicates that she was removed from a "cruelty" situation, so receiving physical affection may be new to her. She can be just a little timid when meeting new people, but at her vet visit she was more comfortable sitting on her foster mom's lap. But she's not shy at all with other dogs! She loves having a playmate, and it doesn't bother her if they are a bit bossy. Penelope is very fond of toys and enjoys a good tug of war with another dog. There have not been any issues with housetraining and she really likes being in her crate. Her leash walking skills are pretty good. She is a typical beagle about food - always hungry, but doesn't show any food aggression at all. Penelope is heartworm negative but we do want to schedule a dental for her. She will be ready to go on sleepover very soon.

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.
