A breed expert once wrote: “The beagle has the stubbornness of a dachshund – without its oddness”. And in fact, the beagle is a rascal with the face of an angel. That is why a lot of consistency is necessary when training a beagle.
It will only rarely try to get its way through “stupid violence”. However, it can happen that it just listens and only does what it enjoys: eat whenever and as much as it likes it walks and roams whenever an opportunity and a scent presents itself. These are also the weak points that require special attention in its training and keeping.

#1 A well-trained beagle is a lovely family dog: playful into old age and enthusiastic about all activities, but also happy about a lazy day petting on the couch.
#2 Beagles are pronounced pack dogs. The more members your pack has, the better.
#3 As a rule, visitors do not have to be afraid of a beagle.
But the same is true for burglars and so his watchdog qualities lie more in his willingness to bark than in his willingness to defend himself.
