Description
Dog Breed: Beagle. Adoption Fee: $250.00. Bootsie has absolutely delighted her foster mom with how easily she has adjusted, how well she is getting along with her other dog and how loving and affectionate she is. When Bootsie is especially happy or excited she makes cute little whines. Her personality is gentle and submissive, and when meeting new people she greets them happily, wagging her tail and wants to lick their hands. Bootsie was surrendered to a Louisiana shelter along with Lolly, also available for adoption. Squirrels and rabbits do not interest Bootsie, but she will chase cats when they run. She has been 100% housebroken from the day she arrived. She had to learn to go on a leash and showed her foster mom that she can hold it for a very long time. Bootsie is currently allowed to sleep in bed at night with foster mom and the other dog. She is a low energy dog but does not like to be left alone. When foster mom does goes out for a few hours, Bootsie is crated but she does vocalize her discontent with the situation. Bootsie very much enjoys her walks and a good roll in the grass. As is typical for a beagle, she will pull a little to get to places she really wants to smell. She is heartworm positive and we expect her treatment to be scheduled mid July.

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.
