Beagles, in my opinion, are the cutest, most lovable dogs in the entire universe. They are apartment friendly, know when to console you if something is wrong, and they are family pets. My love for beagles began back when I was a little kid watching Charlie Brown specials around the holidays. To this day, I MUST always watch them no matter when they are on. I also have been fortunate enough to have always grown up with dogs which have luckily always been beagles. We did have a black lab first but once Lucky passed away, we went for smaller dogs. I am going to dig into what makes this furry breed so lovable and hopefully at the end of this listicle, you will want to get a Snoopy yourself!

1. They Love Exercise!

I can't tell you how many times I take my favorite canines on walks when I am home. It makes their day being outside and being able to smell all the smells that it brings. They also always end up sleeping a lot once we are done so it is good for them!

2. They are short-haired medium sized dogs

Does the appeal of a large dog not get on your good side? Do you not like small dogs because of their size? Then a beagle is right for you!

3. You want a lively canine

These guys and gals are generally busy exploring their world. They’ll investigate anything and everything. They’ll bring you their “finds” with tail wagging and butt swinging. My beagle Ruby once brought me a dead bird and I about died.

4. The beagle head tilt

Its a real thing trust me. If you start talking to your beagle, they move their head like they understand what you are talking about.

5. The Department of Homeland Security Has a Beagle Brigade

The US government trains Beagles to sniff out luggage at airports, helping to find contraband agricultural products and prevent them from reaching American soil. So if the government loves them, why not you?

I hope I made some valid points for wanting you to get a beagle as your next furry friend. I know you won't regret your decision!
