About Sit the Happy-Go-Lucky | |

June 21, 2015: Sit is still here at the shelter.. She is so remarkable. It is so sad to see in almost 1 year she has no applications on her. She would make a great pet to someone who would just love the companion of a pet to sit with them and go on small walks. Sit will stay and watch everyone walk right on by and we cannot imagine what it is that no one has yet to give her a chance to either adopt or foster. She will make someone a great companion. Yes, we are thinking of a special name for her she deserves better then "Sit". Won't you come by and meet her or take her out for a day, or even try fostering. She is ready for a soft bed and love, very much overdue.
Thank you.
When taking Sit on a walk, she appeared to be pretty happy-go-lucky. She was just glad to be out in the fresh air and to be getting a some exercise. She was not a "puller" when on leash.
Sit likes some dogs and doesn't care as much for others. She would probably prefer to be an only dog and have all the attention to herself. She will do best in an adult home.
She's really just a sweet gal looking for her forever, loving home.
According to www.dogbreedinfo.com, the Beagle is one of the most popular scent hounds because of his energy, willingness, and merry, sweet disposition. The breed probably originated as a cross between the Harrier and other hounds in England. The Beagle has been used in packs, alone, and in pairs, for hunting hare, pheasant and quail. He has also served as an excellent narcotics detection dog and makes a fine family companion. The Beagle is a gentle, sweet, lively and curious dog that just loves everyone! A happy little tail-wagger! Sociable, brave and intelligent. Calm and loving. Excellent with children and generally good with other dogs, but should not be trusted with non-canine pets, unless they are socialized with cats and other household animals when they are young. Beagles have minds of their own. They are determined and watchful and require patient, firm training. This breed doesn't like being left alone. Consider buying two if you will be gone a lot. A Beagle has a loud baying cry that was a delight to hunting horsemen, but can be disturbing to family and neighbors. Beagles have a tendency to follow their own noses. They may take off on their own exploration if let off their leash in an unfenced area. Energetic and possessing great stamina, the Beagle needs plenty of exercise, but a yard of reasonable size will take care of most of its requirements. A brisk daily walk will cover the rest. Always use a lead when walking this breed or you will be running the risk of it disappearing in search of wild game. They have a life expectancy of about 12-15 years.
