Everybody loves a beagle until they own one. They need to run and will at every oportunity. Not a dog for the lazy or the small suburban lot. They need and want space. If you have a place to hunt rabbits grab one or three. they are great kennel dogs. I have killed a lot of rabbits with them. Great dogs.

They also L-O-V-E to bark.... but they have the softest ears! :hearteyes:
 
I was doing a research paper about cancer and someone referred me to a program at Colorado State. I secured an appointment with a professor and walked into a building that contained hundreds of beagles being tested. I will never forget the sight- cages of beautiful dogs in various states of distress.

Oh, just in case you ever attend a football game in Fort Collins...the stadium sits right on top of where this building used to be.
 
Not a beejul fan either. I did see Rocky try to jump-start one, that was pretty funny.
A friend brings over this young beagle and my JRT is being a good host, going around the yard, peeing on things. The trouble is, that is all that dog would do. Rocky is doing the play dance, getting down, poking him in the ribs, nothing. The dog would not play. In desperation Rocky slides under the dog and tries to kick start him from below. The dog smiles a little, and then goes over to pee on that bush for the umpteenth time. idiot dog.

Beagles are cuter so… yes.

I don't disagree, but unfortunately we never get the volunteers that we need.

But IME, beagles aren't used for experiments, but kept to raise worms that are actually used in a lot of basic science. Institutional facilities that keep beagles on hand in order to breed worms, have pretty strict limits on how long they remain in the facility, and are then de-wormed and offered up for adoption. Sure, it probably sounds awful from the outside, but until we can think of another way to generate billions of new c. elegans lines....

We actually get one of our mouse lines from En Vigo. ...not this facility, I think, because it seems limited to dogs. I think ours come from a PA facility.
