Description
Dog Breed: Beagle (short coat). Toby is a lovable, purebred Beagle with a gentle spirit and classic hound charm. Born on March 6, 2020, and weighing about 32 pounds, Toby is the perfect medium-sized companion—big enough for adventures, but small enough to curl up beside you at the end of the day. Toby was originally acquired from a breeder in Maryland and has been a cherished family pet ever since. He’s known for his friendly nature and gets along well with other dogs, cats, and children (but would do best in a home without little kids). Like many Beagles, he’s curious, loyal, and enjoys being part of the action, whether that’s following a scent trail or simply hanging out with his people. Toby is being rehomed through no fault of his own. In a home with very young children, he has experienced situations that have been overwhelming for him, leading to a recent incident after being cornered and handled roughly. His family loves him deeply and wants to ensure he is placed in an environment where he can feel safe, respected, and truly thrive. Toby would do best in a home with older, respectful children (or adults) who understand dog boundaries and can give him the calm, stable environment he deserves. With the right family, Toby will be an incredibly loyal, affectionate companion ready to bring years of love and joy. He is neutered, current on vaccinations, heartworm negative and microchipped. If you’re looking for a sweet, soulful pup to join your family, Toby may be your perfect match.

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.
