?Beagle

Whether your buying a new dog or simply looking for a shelter that will help you adopt a new pet, Insurance4Britain.com is the place to look for all your pet and pet insurance needs.

The Beagle is member of the hound group; it is similar in appearance to the Foxhound but smaller, with shorter legs and longer, softer ears. Beagles are scent hounds, developed primarily for tracking hare, rabbit, and other game. They have a keen sense of smell and tracking instinct. This sees them not only used in sports but also employed as detection dogs for agricultural imports and foodstuffs in quarantine around the world.

They are popular as pets because of their size, even temper, and lack of inherited health problems. They aren't suited to urban life due to exercise requirements, but are good family pets as Beagles are good natured dogs and they will also get along with most other dogs. An introduction to cats at an early age will enable good relations.

Because Beagles are pack dogs, they will take their membership in your family pack seriously. They are good guard dogs as they frequently check their territory and will voice any indiscretions. Their lifespan is considered to be 13 years.
