[quote=Anonymous]I am 46, and I can't remember a time where I went more than a couple of years without a beagle in the house. Some of the beagles were outside dogs (when I was a kid) and all but one have hunted (whether they lived inside or outside). When they hunted and were on the track of a rabbit or pheasant (most of our dogs ran both) they howled like crazy, but I have never actually had one who howled regularly at home.

Beagles are the most loyal dogs I have ever known, and they are protective. I still remember our beagle shadowing my father in the baby's room the first time he came to visit after our daughter was born. The dog LOVED my father, but he was protecting his baby. Beagles are also very affectionate. I am not sure any of my beagles didn't think they were a lap dog.

The one negative to me is the shedding. At the shedding times of year there is hair EVERYWHERE. The other night after scratching my dog (at her insistence mind you) I couldn't believe the pile of hair in my hand!

Needless to say I can't imagine a house without a beagle in it.[/quote]
