Beagles are happy-go-lucky and friendly, making them a wonderful family pet. They are also favored for their compact size and short easy to care for coat. Since they lived in packs for hundreds of years, they naturally enjoy the company of other dogs and humans. Curious and comedic, they often follow their noses-which can lead to some mischief if they are not provided with daily activity..
The most famous Beagle of all is Snoopy from the comic strip "Peanuts." A sturdy hunting dog, the Beagle should look like a foxhound in miniature. His hunting ability, combined with a merry personality, has made the Beagle one of the most popular dogs in the United States.
Being a small dog of compact size, Beagles avoid some of the health problems that affect mobility more common with larger breeds . However, there is good reason to consider the use of a Pet MRC for your Beagle if they become afflicted with Intervertebral Disk Disease, a degenerative condition of the spinal column, which can lead to problems in mobility due to pain, inflammation, and deformity of vertebrae alignment.
