Beagle Dogs for Sale |

When searching for Beagle dogs for sale, make sure to visit reputable Beagle breeders. Whatever you do, no matter how cute the puppy, stay away from puppy mills.

“A dog is not a thing. A thing is replaceable. A dog is not. A thing is disposable. A dog is not. A thing doesn’t have a heart. A dog’s heart is bigger than any “thing” you can ever own.”

― Elizabeth Parker, Paw Prints in the Sand

Puppy mills breed puppies that are caged inhumanely, for profit.

Most of these dogs live in tiny cages, are bred by inexperienced and unscrupulous breeders, and are easily obtainable over the internet. Please be wary of Beagles for sale online classifieds. Backyard breeders also need to be avoided, as they too will breed for profit. In both cases, you risk purchasing a Beagle puppy with deformed limbs and with genetic defects. You will also aid in perpetuating the suffering of these poor dogs that are at the hands of cruel people.

Here are some tips on how to buy Beagle dogs for sale from a reputable breeder

Get a list from the American Kennel Club (AKC) or the National Kennel Club (NBC) of the best Beagle breeders in your state or country.
Ask your Beagle breeder to give you a signed, written contract, veterinary records, and your Beagle’s pedigree certificate.
Contact your breeder’s veterinarian and make inquiries about the breeder and his past litters.
Reputable breeders will not allow for their Beagle dogs for sale to go to a new home before they are 8 to 10 weeks of age. Some even later at around 12 weeks.
Beagle puppies need to have been socialized while in the care of the breeders.
The kennels need to be clean, and the puppies should be well cared for.
The breeder should allow for you to visit and see both the sire and dam (parents) before purchasing the puppy. Sometimes you’ll need to leave a deposit and wait for a few months.

Do your research before buying Beagle dogs for sale

Before buying a purebred Beagle puppy from a Beagle breeder, you’ll need to do plenty of research. All reputable breeders will give you health test results for the parents. These will include the Canine Eye Registration Foundation certification, BAER certification (hearing test), and Orthopedic Foundation for Animals Foundation certification to check for hip and elbow dysplasia. You can also ask for certification of healthy patellas (knees) especially in the Beagle since this is a hereditary condition and MLS DNA test (Musladin-Leuke Syndrome).

Even if the breeder that you want to visit is well known, this does not mean that he or she is reputable.

You may even opt to visit a few Beagle dog shows to talk to competitors and find out about their breeder. Try to get as much information from other Beagle owners before going out and buying a Beagle puppy from a breeder. Before bringing your Beagle puppy home, your breeder will need to provide you with:

A copy of your Beagle’s pedigree
Certification of deworming
First immunization records
Neutering or spaying records if your Beagle puppy is 6 months or older

You should go home with a written guarantee that will allow for you to return your Beagle puppy, and get a full refund if the veterinarian detects any health or genetic health problems during the pup’s first health visit. This should take place within two days of bringing your Beagle puppy home.

Keep in mind that your Beagle’s health and temperament are dependent on the values and knowledge of the breeder.

By visiting and purchasing a purebred Beagle dog for sale from a reputable breeder, you’ll be able to evaluate your pup’s temperament by seeing how both parents are, how friendly they are, and if they are healthy. If you’re looking to show, then find out about championship bloodlines. Show Beagle’s will be more costly, but the Beagle breeders will be more committed to the breed.

If you are looking for Beagle dogs for sale choose wisely for the future of all Beagles.
