A few Beagles around me (in Doncaster) have been rehomed as the owners fell for the cute pupppies and did not research into the breed. They can be noisy and destructive, and when they find a scent their recall is non-existant


Out of the half dozen Beagles I have met on walks in the last few years, I now only see one elderly one (always on a lead), so they must not be the ideal pet.
