Singer and songwriter Barry Manilow is the proud pop of two beagles-Bagel and Biscuit. Field trials for beagles got off to a slow start. Beagle studs do not come cheap. Expect to pay in excess of two hundred dollars if you plan to breed your beagle bitch to an American Kennel Club registered stud. There are presently more than sixty working beagle packs in England-some of which were established more than 150 years ago.
Beagles are natural trackers, so they have a tendency to wander away from home.
Beagles are particularly happy dogs that exhibit a natural ability to adapt to many kinds of living conditions. In the United States, beagles are best known for trailing the cottontail rabbit. Puppies and insecure dogs sometimes urinate at their owner's feet as a way of announcing their subservience. Never punish your pet for submissive urination. Instead, work to build your dog's self-confidence and the problem will disappear on its own.
