Description
Dog Breed: Beagle. Adoption Fee: $300.00. COMING SOON! Waffles was abandoned by a Missouri rabbit hunter and has happily traded in his life of going after rabbits for instead being a beloved house pet. He is now in his 3rd week in a temporary foster home in MO and loving it! Although he seems quite content to enjoy the comforts of a home, Waffles cannot be a trusted with cats or even fluffy little dogs who look to him like rabbits. He is great with the other beagles, a shihtzu, chiweenie, havanese mix and pitty in his foster home, but the Maltese who is tiny, white and looks bunny-ish is a no go. She runs and he chases. Otherwise, Waffles is friendly and good natured. He is still young and energetic so will need a family who can provide him with physical excercise and mental stimulation appropriate for his age and breed. He will arrive in Florida mid April and is heartworm negative and will be fully vetted.

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.
