Beagles were originally bred in England as hunting scent hounds to track rabbits, hares and other small game
Scent Hounds
As high energy dogs bred to run and track scents for miles, Beagles require a lot of daily walks and playtime.
Exercise
Beagles use their loud, baying howls to communicate while tracking scents. It's normal for them to be vocal!
Born Howlers
With their superior sense of smell, Beagles excel at detection work sniffing out contraband, termites and more
Detection Dogs
Motivated by food, Beagles will overeat if given the chance. Careful portion control is a must!
Tend to Gluttons
As pack dogs bred to hunt together, Beagles crave companionship and do best with another dog pal.
Animals by Nature
With proper care, exercise and diet, the average Beagle lifespan is between 10-15 years.
