Description
Dog Breed: Beagle. Adoption Fee: $300.00. Slick gives true meaning to the words "cuddle bug". He LOVES people and when he is being snuggled in your lap he shows his appreciation with cute little grunting noises. He also likes to give kisses. When he greets new people he immediately rolls over for belly rubs. With children he is especially gentle and well mannered. In his foster home he appears to be completely housetrained. He’s been crated at times during the day for up to 3 hours and currently sleeps in his crate at night... but given his love of cuddling, he would probably prefer to be bedding down next to his people. Slick is very mellow in the house and enjoys window watching from a perch on the back of the sofa. Outside he likes exploring as much as any beagle - he is curious about prey but not driven and walks well on a leash. If Slick can find a forever family who will shower him with love and affection, he will be more than willing to reciprocate! He is heartworm positive but his treatment is scheduled soon and he could be ready for a sleepover in a couple of weeks.

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.
