Introduction

Known for their merry personalities, compact size, and melodious bark, Beagles are small to medium-sized dogs that are both friendly and great with families. Their short coat, often in a tricolor pattern, is sleek and requires minimal grooming. Beagles have an innate curiosity and keen sense of smell that makes them excellent at scent games but also prone to wanderlust, so secure space is essential. With moderate exercise needs, Beagles are adaptable companions that bring joy and energy to any home.
