Beagle

The drooping ears are the biggest feature and selling point of the Beagle. The ears of the Beagle are not allowed to be longer than the nose, and the lower edge of the ears is round and wide. The main colors are yellow, black and white. Yellow is scattered on the head, ears, upper part of the limbs, and lower part of the tail. Black is mainly on the back and is also the biggest symbol for quickly identifying whether it is a Beagle. White is often emphasized because the previous method of distinguishing by the black back is no longer applicable with the changes of the times. Since the lower part of the Beagle's limbs is white, there is a saying that "Beagles wear white socks." The abdomen should feel strong and fleshy when patted. Except when the Beagle is sick, hungry or in a bad mood, the tail of the Beagle is almost always upturned, with an arc like a sharp sickle, and the feathers are long, making the tail look very thick and powerful. The coat is medium length, dense

Originated from the UK

The Beagle is one of the world's famous dog breeds and is classified as a hunting dog. It is a very old breed. Historically, the Beagle was used for hunting and is one of the smallest hunting dog breeds. Another important role is as a test dog. Many physiological and medical tests must be verified on individuals of this breed before they can be recognized.

The Beagle is famous for its ability to hunt hares. In the early hunting activities of humans, both veterans and novices used Beagles to hunt small prey. For those hunters who were relatively poor and could not afford good horses, the existence of Beagles also made their lives dependable.

The true origin of the Beagle is unknown, and it may be related to the ancient British hounds. There are many theoretical explanations for its origin, among which the most recognized theory is that the Beagle originated in the area before the birth of Christian civilization. The theory is based on the text recorded by the ancient Greek philosopher Xenophon in "On Hunting"; Xenophon was an avid hunting enthusiast. In "On Hunting", he mentioned this small hound that tracked hares by scent. Based on these text records, people inferred that it was the ancestor of the Beagle. With the development of history, this hound was brought to the Roman Empire, and some of the descendants of the Beagle were sold to the British Isles; since then, the Beagle began to develop in the UK, not only becoming a rabbit hunter in the English Highlands, but also the best helper for hunters.

The nickname of the Beagle is "Forest Bell". In ancient times, it was a good thing to shout loudly to remind the owner during hunting, but now it has become a bad thing. Moreover, the Beagle is also a very alert dog, often roaring when blown by the wind, which is really a nightmare for people living in apartment buildings. In addition, the Beagle has a big appetite. Experts have tested and found that no matter how much food is given to it, it will definitely eat it all, and even eat until its stomach is bloated before it stops.

The curiosity of the Beagle can be said to be the first in the dog world. It will bite anything madly. But the teeth of the Beagle are very sharp, so it is often horrible to be caught by it; plus the Beagle has excess physical strength, so it is playful and uncontrolled, and furniture and other household items may also be affected. It is worth mentioning that the Beagle is the second dog in terms of smelling ability, and it relies on its "nose" to make a living.

Because the Beagle is similar to the Basset Hound, and there are many bad dog dealers, they often let Beagles mate with other dog breeds and claim to be orthodox Beagles to raise the price, causing many people to suffer. Therefore, the American Kennel Club and the American Beagle Club have specially listed many characteristics to identify Beagles to facilitate people's future identification.
