Description
Dog Breed: Beagle (short coat). Adoption Fee: 350.. GATOR is a sweet, easygoing 2 year old beagle boy looking for a home. He came to us after being on the run in a rural area for a month. We have to say he's the chonkiest stray we've ever met -- he tipped the scales at 43 pounds when he arrived (he should be around 32 pounds). All of the good people in the area were feeding him as they tried to catch him. Gator was living the beagle dream, food everywhere! Thankfully he was finally captured and now he's ready to settle down with a family of his very own. Gator is on a diet and he has some strong opinions on the subject. Beagles. If you know you know. Gator is good with everyone -- he loves attention from people, he's good with other dogs and respectful with cats. He needs a home with a physically-fenced yard to keep him from following his beagle nose into trouble. If you'd like to meet Gator, please fill out a dog adoption application at dreamhouserescue. We are happy to arrange a private meet with an approved adopter. You can meet Gator at our weekly adoption event, Saturday 11:30am-1:30pm at PetSmart Eastgate. Our fully-vetted adoptable dogs go to prospective homes for a one-week trial period to make sure the dog and home are the right fit before an adoption is finalized. We only adopt dogs into homes where all current pets are spayed/neutered and current on vaccines and heartworm and flea and tick prevention. We do check veterinary references to make sure adopters are compliant with standard veterinary care. Our adoptable dogs are spayed/neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, heartworm tested, dewormed and current on flea and tick and heartworm prevention.

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.
