OriginAlthough its origin is not fully understood, it is mentioned in the fourteenth century English literature. It is estimated that this breed originated much earlier in continental Europe. Having gone to England from France, according to some authors also existed in Greece.
There have been at least two varieties of Beagle that have come to recognize as their own breeds of dogs. One of these varieties was the Beagle Hair Duro which is estimated to owe its origin to the crossing of the Beagle with some terrier in northern England or Scotland. In Wales a race wire-haired Beagle was also reported but it is uncertain whether it was the same already mentioned. The other variety was a miniature Beagle that despite its diminutive size itself was used in hunting. It took the puppy in bags of frames, or the pockets of riders, and when the hare was hiding, she let go of the Beagle Thumbnail to finish the job. This model was very popular, reaching some kings in the UK, including Elizabeth I (Elizabeth I), to have packs of these dogs. The two varieties ceased to exist shortly after the First World War. |
As a pet
Before taking a hunting dog you must consider that these dogs have been bred with the intention to protect or care home, really not even be pets. They are dogs that their instincts lead him, if necessary, to travel long distances in search of prey. Such prey does not exist in cities and therefore the dog will continue to search in vain until you get to lose away from home if he is allowed to leave the door to outside. This is very true in the Beagle as in many other breeds of dogs.
Otherwise, this dog is a good pet if you are allowed to make their own from time to time. Very good with children of the house, but not quite recommended for babies, not because it is bad, but it is very active. It also shows willingness toward other pets, actually performs better when kept with dogs golds, preferably from their own race. It requires moderate exercise is not something exaggerated as in other hunting dogs. Hair care is minimal, his ears must attend.
