With the rescue that has the dog. Today the Beagles on this page are with Many Tears Animal Rescue, Last Chance Animal Rescue, All Creatures Great and Small, Almost Home Animal Rescue NI, Diana Brimblecombe Animal Rescue Centre, Doris Banham Dog Rescue and 7 other rescues. Open a profile and apply to that rescue: each one runs its own application, home check and adoption fee. We don't rehome animals ourselves.

The Royal Kennel Club says up to an hour a day. Dogs Trust calls Beagles typically high-energy dogs who need daily walks, play and enrichment. Both point to a dog that needs regular exercise and mental work, and the rescue can tell you what this dog is used to.

Yes. The Royal Kennel Club lists the Beagle as shedding, and Dogs Trust says the shedding is moderate. The short coat only needs brushing about once a week.

Take care. The Royal Kennel Club says the Beagle benefits from secure surroundings because its keen sense of smell may lead it to follow an interesting scent. Ask the rescue how this dog's recall is, and use secure areas until you know.

The Royal Kennel Club says Queen Elizabeth I kept a pack of miniature Beagles, and that this miniature variety "has fallen out of favour in the UK". In the USA the breed is shown in two sizes, and the smaller is commonly called the Pocket Beagle. The UK breed standard has one size: a desirable height of 33 to 40 cm at the shoulder.

The breed standard gives a desirable height at the shoulder of 33 to 40 cm. The Royal Kennel Club lists the breed as small, though Dogs Trust lists it as medium. A standard describes the ideal, so an individual dog may be bigger or smaller.

The Royal Kennel Club lists the lifespan as over 12 years, and Dogs Trust says typically 12 or more. Adopting a Beagle can mean a long commitment, which is one reason older Beagles are worth a look too.

We only list dogs with rescues, so there is nothing to buy here: every Beagle on this page is adopted for the rescue's fee. If you decide to buy, The Royal Kennel Club runs a Find a Puppy service, and Dogs Trust suggests talking to your vet, and says some practices offer pre-purchase consultations covering likely health conditions, rough costs, finding a responsible breeder and testing for inheritable diseases. With an adult rescue Beagle, the rescue can tell you about its personality and vet history.

It depends on the dog, not the breed. Today the rescues mark 10 of the 20 Beagles listed in the UK as able to live with children. Where a profile says nothing, ask the rescue what age of children the dog could live with.

Each rescue sets its own adoption fee. Battersea charges £230 for a dog over six months and £275 for a puppy under six months, Dogs Trust charges £300 for a puppy or adult dog in England, Wales and Scotland, and Blue Cross fees start from £235 for dogs aged 8 or over and £335 for dogs aged 1 to 7. The fee usually covers neutering, microchipping and first vaccinations, and each rescue confirms its own fee.

No. We don't list animals for sale. Every Beagle on this page is with a rescue or rehoming centre. Rescues rehome animals rather than selling them, usually for an adoption fee: for example, Battersea charges £230 for a dog over six months and £275 for a puppy under six months, and Dogs Trust £300. The fee usually goes towards vet work already done, such as neutering, microchipping and first vaccinations. If you searched "beagle puppies for sale", the Beagles here are the rescue route: you apply to the rescue and pay its adoption fee, not a sale price.

Usually not. UK rescues normally ask for an adoption fee, which pays towards neutering, microchipping and vaccinations. Many rescue fees are under £500: Battersea charges £230 for a dog over six months, Dogs Trust £300, and Blue Cross from £235 for dogs aged 8 or over. An animal offered "free to a good home" is usually a private advert rather than a rescue. All dogs in the UK must be microchipped by 8 weeks old, and in England, Wales and Scotland a dog can't pass to a new keeper until it is chipped, so ask to see the microchip details.

Not right now: none of the 20 Beagles listed in the UK is under a year old by its listed age. Puppies do get listed, so check back or look at the adults, whose rescues can tell you much more about their character.

Yes: 6 Beagles of the 20 listed in the UK are aged 7 or over by the listed age. Some rescues charge less for older dogs: Blue Cross fees start from £235 for dogs aged 8 or over.
