Description
Dog Breed: Beagle. Adoption Fee: $300.00. Tigger has come a long way from the frightened little beagle who arrived last October. We believe Tigger and Pooh are brothers. Originally they were not fostered together, but were near enough to play together several times a week. Now they are in the same foster home. Tigger has learned to trust his foster mom and dad, and he seems quite willing to trust other people, as long as he is not restricted or restrained. He has become happily compliant with household routines and uses a dog door to go outside to potty and run about. He comes in frequently to nap in his favorite places. Tigger is ABSOLUTELY food motivated and will totally go in his crate for meals and bedtime treats, but then is allowed to sleep on a dog bed or on the bed with foster mom. Mornings he will often be sweetly affectionate and appreciates petting, rubs and even a little play...as long as he is not held. He will move away if he feels uncomfortable. In the beginning, the only time he could be petted was when his face was in a food dish. It was then his foster mom could put a harness on him and he would allow belly rubs and petting. Tigger is a confident little boy who walks with a sassy little swagger. He is alert, energetic and stinking cute! He needs another dog to play with for sure, and we'd actually love it if he got adopted together with Pooh. Tigger's family will really need to be patient and continue to allow him to develop trust with their physical contact. He also needs a securely fenced yard. Tigger was heartworm positive but has already been through his treatment and has retested negative. He is ready for a sleepover with an appropriate family.

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.
