Fuck that company for so many reasons. Chief among them, breeding a dog that barks and howls incessantly.
I trained my beagle to do neither bark nor howl, but she whined incessantly lol. Point is, any dog can be trained at any age not to, so it's the owners fault (most times as there are exceptions), not the dog's.
Yes, I'm actually mad at bad owners. Poor dogs are in the cross fire.
Maybe but their back is like their ears, way oversized.
I think you're thinking of basset hounds. Beagles ears aren't all that big. Bigger in comparison to head size than a terrier's or a shepherd breed, but not 'trip over them' basset hound size.
I think I was too.
I always get them confused
Beagles are the primary breed for any sort of medical/drug testing. I have no idea why they use beagles specifically, but it's the industry standard.
They're well mannered and don't take up much space is the answer in seeing in all the search results.
