A family contacted us asking that we help them rehome their 2 sweet beagle sisters. The wife has been severely allergic to them since they got the dogs but it has become unbearable. One of the beagles jumped to greet her and accidentally scratched her and she spent a couple days in the hospital from the allergic reaction. They have been keeping the beagles outside lately and it is to cold for that so we need to find them fosters ASAP. Here is the description the family gave us:
Layla: gets along great with all ages of children including infants and toddlers, loves all ages of adults. She is sweet and gentle and loves to be close to people. She regularly spends time curled up in the lap of my 12yr old daughter sleeping and loving on her girl. Layla does not bark a lot but will bark when there are people or cars around she does not know. Layla has never bitten or snarled or even made an attempt to do so. She also loves to swing on the swing set with my daughter and lets my daughter carry her everywhere like a baby. Layla is up to date on her shots as far as I know and is tagged in Firfield county.
Shiloh: (Shi) also gets along great with all ages of children including infants and toddlers, loves all ages of adults. She is sweet and gentle and loves to be close to people but unlike her sister Shiloh still enjoys playing ball, frisbee, etc and running around the yard chasing my 8 yr old son in games of "doggy tag" as he calls it. Shiloh has also never bitten or snarled at a person or made any attempt to do so to my knowledge. Shiloh is also up to date on her shots as far as I know and she is tagged in Fairfield county. She also only really barks at strangers.
Both dogs came from a litter of puppies that belonged to a family member of mine, not a breeder. The dogs mom was full blooded registered beagle and their dad was 1/2 registered beagle 1/2 lab. Our girls are small beagle size even though they have the mix in them.
When they lived in the house with us both dogs were house trained and crate trained. We have a cat that both dogs loved even though she clearly wanted no part of them most of the time. When we go on vacation each year the dogs are taken to stay with family members and I have always been told that our girls get along very well with our other family members dogs.
