It took them forever to train that boy, but now he's the sweetest (albeit, still very willful) little guy. Beagles tend to be affectionate with their owners. My parents' dog enjoys sitting next to them on the couch... and following them to every room... and he's a blast to play with! I go over their house just to get my dog longings out... I want a dog, but, like you, I have this rule that I cant have one until I'm living with someone else because I'm a little too single and busy to take care of one... (thus, why I have my two kitties). My parents have a beagle mix (with Australian cattle dog–another willful breed).

They take good care of each other when you can't be with them. Congratulations on becoming a dog mom and Happy Easter! This will sound crazy, but I highly recommend TWO beagles.

They are indeed talkers. Maybe you can train him to harmonize on karaoke night.... So, the Easter Beagle IS real! They are indeed talkers. Maybe you can train him to harmonize on karaoke night….

And that word is "school." As in "doggie school." As in "good manners doggie school." It can make a world o'difference, and believe me, I speak from experience, having one very well-trained and tractable dog (the eponymous Berry) and one willful puppy (Maya). We thought we had met our match with her, but now hubby is taking her to Doggie Good Manners School and we can see that it might actually be possible for her eventually to become a somewhat good dog. Maybe. [<em>J, I am absolutely adamant that Max will attend Good Boy Doggie School.
