Adorable cute beagle puppy in hands:-
The Beagle is a breed of small to medium-sized dog. A member of the
Hound Group, it is similar in appearance to the Foxhound, but smaller with
shorter legs and longer, softer ears. Beagles are scent hounds, developed
primarily for tracking hare, rabbit, and other small game. They have a great
sense of smell and tracking instinct that sees them employed as detection dogs
for prohibited agricultural imports and foodstuffs in quarantine around the
world.
Beagles are intelligent, and popular pets because of their size, even
temper, and lack of inherited health problems.
Although beagle-type dogs have existed for over 2,000 years, the modern
breed was developed in Great Britain around the 1830s from several breeds,
including the Talbot Hound, the North Country Beagle, the Southern Hound, and
possibly the Harrier.
Beagles have been depicted in popular culture since Elizabethan times
in literature and paintings, and more recently in film, television and comic
books. Snoopy of the comic strip Peanuts has been promoted as "the world's
most famous beagle"
