A Guide To The Beagle Dog Breed

By Darren Lintern

The Beagle is one of those breeds that will thrive off human affection. An extremely amiable creature that was initially bred as a pack hunter, the Beagle is an eager exploration searcher. The perfect fun time for this pet would be exploring and rummaging through wooded areas and forests. She utterly adores her owner and can make the ideal social home dog.

Training and Housebreaking Beagle Tips:

Learning how to train a Beagle doesn't take that long to get to grips with as this breed is a first-class house pet that remains calm and placid, particularly close to its family members. Although the Beagle will need a daily exercise routine to keep her active, content and calm, it doesn't take much, maybe 15 to 25 minutes of gentle exercise every day.

Take them for a long walk or a swift run through a safe spot in the forest. She especially enjoys scouting paths and other small trails. However, be certain not to take this breed of dog off her leash if she's has been confined inside for a long period. If she catches the sense of small animals along a trail, she is liable to scamper off and chase around for a while, typically if her energy reserves have built up from lack of activity.

An ideal option if you have a small child in the house, having a Beagle as a pet will make you happy and will never stop searching for means to delight you.

Beagle Health Problem Concerns:

Most Beagles can expect a lifespan of between 9 and 16 years but on occasion have minor health dilemma's to watch out for, such as hypothyroidism, chondrodysplasia, KCS, patellar luxation, glaucoma, epilepsy, and cherry eye.
