The Beagle is one of the most popular dog breeds in the world, and for good reason. They are excellent companions, playful and energetic, making them perfect for active families who love spending time outdoors. Let’s take a closer look at the characteristics of this wonderful breed.
Breed Characteristics
Beagles stand out with their short, dense fur, large ears, and friendly, curious eyes. They have a compact, sturdy body, weighing between 10 and 20 kg. The life expectancy of Beagles ranges from 10 to 15 years.
Behavior
Beagles are incredibly social dogs who thrive in company. They are good with children and other dogs. Beagles are excellent hunters with a superior sense of smell, making them fantastic tracking dogs. They are energetic and require regular physical exercise.
Care
Daily walks and outdoor play are important for Beagles. Given their hunting instincts, close supervision is necessary during off-leash walks. Beagles have a tendency towards obesity, so maintaining a proper diet and sufficient physical exercise is key. Their short fur is easy to care for – regular brushing is enough. Beagles have ears that require regular cleaning, as their large size and shape can create an environment conducive to bacterial growth.
