What Beagles are like to live with

The Beagle is a British scenthound. The Royal Kennel Club calls it "the smallest of the British pack hounds", bred to hunt small game and to be followed on foot, and says the breed was established in England by the 15th century and valued for "its stamina, musical voice and exceptional scenting ability". It describes Beagles as "sociable and generally good-tempered, thriving on companionship", and says their friendly nature and manageable size have made them a popular family companion.
