We hope you will enjoy the Kennel at Jeannie's Cottage which is a little online gift shop carrying a variety of animal related gifts, including these toy stuffed animal Beagles. At top is a fine group of Beagles. They include A Breed Apart sculpture, a Beagle Frame from E&S Imports, a Fuzzy Town Beagle, a Wide Eyez Beagle from Russ Berrie, and Baron the Beagle and Charleston the Beagle from Douglas Cuddle Toys. You can find some of these and other Beagle toy stuffed animals in our Gift Shop.

Beagles were originally hunting dogs, used for chasing hares (rabbits). They originated in Great Britain. Beagles are hounds. Hounds are separated into two main types: sight hounds and scent hounds. Beagles belong to the second group: scent hounds.

Beagles are about 13 to 16 inches high and weigh anywhere from 20 to 30 pounds. They come in a variety of colors: white, black, tan, red, lemon and blue mottle. The coat is short and thick.

They can be cheerful and affectionate and are good with children. They make good watchdogs but are not considered good guard dogs. Their life span is from 12 to 13 years.
