Beagles have a long history, but the most famous of them all, of course,
is Snoopy, whose delight in food and travel exemplifies the breed. This
small, popular trail hound, used chiefly to hunt rabbit and hare, was
developed in England. The breed name is thought to have come from the
Celtic word beag, meaning "small." In color and outline the Beagle
resembles a miniature Foxhound. For purposes of field trialing and
conformation judging, Beagles are divided into two sizes: 13 inches and
under, and over 13 inches, but not over 15 inches. The Beagle makes an
endearing family pet and is especially good with children. The short,
hard coat may be any acceptable hound color or combination of colors.
The coat is easily kept in condition by frequent rubdowns with a rough
towel or hound mitt. Ears should be examined regularly, cleaned, and
then dusted with antiseptic powder to prevent infection. Daily outdoor
exercise is important to the Beagle, but it should be leashed or
confined to a securely fenced yard when outdoors or its nose could lead
it away and into trouble. Beagles fit into most households and are good
children's companions and watchdogs.
