16 Surprising Facts About Beagles

#13 Even the Romans found beagle-like hunting dogs in Great Britain.

The name appears for the first time in 1475. In the 16th century, beagles accompanied the English kings on hunts.

#14 The Beagle is considered a small replica of the former Southern Hound, a rabbit hunter descended from the Bleu de Gascogne.

Because they are smaller and slower than the big dogs, packs of beagles are used to hunt rabbits on foot.

#15 The small, family-friendly hunting dog has a lot to offer the local hunter: a fine nose, track sound, bracing, rummaging around as well as welding.

First and foremost, the Beagle is kept as a family dog thanks to its character traits. Adaptable, sociable, and good-natured, Beagles unfortunately make excellent laboratory breeds and experimental animals.
