Beagles are wonderful companions, yet like all breeds, they benefit greatly from firm and consistent training. To support you and your new puppy on the path to success, I offer a wealth of resources, including articles, information, and personalized guidance. These tools are designed to help you nurture a well-behaved and happy Beagle.

Puppies thrive on a set schedule, firm boundaries, almost constant supervision and temperament exercises. House training and teething can be a difficult time! The best, and fastest, way to train is to keep your eyes on your new Beagle puppy AT ALL TIMES (while out of the crate). Constant supervision is essential for house training and to be sure your puppy is not getting into anything it shouldn’t. Training normally takes several months before you can trust them fully.

Beagles have a well-known love for food, which makes them highly motivated and relatively easy to train with the right treats!

Once you discover a treat that truly captures their interest, obedience training becomes a rewarding experience. Training also helps form a strong and lasting life-long bond with your new dog. Just be mindful that Beagles are very smart and will occasionally try and take advantage and train YOU! If they bark in the crate and you give them any attention AT ALL that is a positive reinforcement for that behavior and will normally lead to more barking. If a puppy bites your hand lightly, that is ok. If they bite you too hard, and you do not correct it properly, they will learn to bite harder and compound the problem as they reach adulthood. If you do not bathe your Beagle regularly, or clip it’s nails, you may have a difficult adult to groom. These are just some of the more common training issues I see and true for all breeds of dogs.

When embarking on the journey of training your dog, it's essential to seek information from reputable sources to ensure you're using effective and humane techniques. Doing the training yourself not only strengthens the bond with your dog but also allows you to tailor the process to suit your pet's individual needs. While hiring a professional trainer is an option, the personal satisfaction and deeper connection achieved through self-training are invaluable.
