They are cute, people soon respond to their other endearing characteristics: their playfulness, curious nature, and self-assuredness. The Beagle has a tail that never seems to stop wagging.
Exercise: A hunter by nature, the Beagle is always up for an expedition. Exercise doesn’t need to last for hours, but it should be interesting for him—meaning he’s allowed to sniff whatever might catch his nose along the way.
Grooming: His short, hard coat is simple to keep clean, and he is compact to boot, so grooming is really a breeze with the Beagle. His ears and the looser skin around his eyes need to be kept clean, and the occasional bath will keep him looking and smelling his best.
Life Span: The average life span of the Beagle is 12 to 14 years.
Training: Taking advantage of the Beagle’s perpetual interest in food can inspire and motivate the Beagle when it comes to training. He can be stubborn and easily distracted, but he will pay attention and learn if his owner is offering something he really wants. He learns quickly, and once he’s mastered basic manners training, he’ll be ready to move on to more-difficult tasks.
