Get them from the proper strain/family and you won't have to worry about that.

How are they energy wise?

Relatively high energy, but far less than the terrier breeds.

This is all great to know! And they don’t have a smell to them, right?

Thanks for the info, sourland. I reckon they aren't a good fit for me, 1 hour a day is the most I can do, and even that's pushing it. 45 minutes is much better

They smell no more/no less doggy than any other dogs. The only dog I have ever had that had no doggy odor whatsoever was a golden doodle. Right now we are dog sitting our daughter's black lab and her pug puppy. Not unpleasant, but both have a doggy odor.

That makes a lot of sense! Thanks!

Yeah, i know. The beagles i know arent from reputable or ethical breeders
Our friend rescued both of his so he doesnt know the history.

We bath our golden retrievers every 2 or 3 week. And they have never had doggy odor.
Doodles tend to smell.

It must depend on the dog because clearly his never smelled and Brew doesn’t really smell bad either and he doesn’t get bathed very often. He has a slightly doggy odor I guess but that’s it.

He actually doesn’t really have any odor normally but I think he rolled in something recently and needs a bath lol

Mine dont usally smell unless it rains or gets muddy. Or they roll in something.
But with the long coats i wash them ever 2 or 3 weeks. Especially as Denver has some skin allergies it helps.

That makes sense! I’m lucky Brew doesn’t have anything like that
