[quote=Anonymous]Every beagle is different. I had one who never howled. Ever. In fact, I've had 5 hounds over 20 years and none howled despite their reputations. The good: beagles are VERY sweet, tolerant of many things, LOVE people, make excellent family dogs. They are hilarious. Goofballs. They don't require significant grooming, just baths. They are a nice size (not too big/small). They love a good snuggle. The "bad": can be very stubborn (but will do anything you ask if you have a treat), they have the musky hound odor if you don't bath them. They need to be leashed and fenced at ALL TIMES. They are slaves to their noses and if they get out, they will just keep going. They are incredibly food motivated so you will need to be on guard for snatching your own food. If you keep a beagle busy with things to do -kongs, treat balls, doggy playdates, walks- you tend to avoid the "bad" issues of howling, etc. [/quote]
