Any Beagles For Sale?

I just got a beagle puppy in August and was thinking about getting
another. I would rather have a purebred puppy so they can both grow
up together. I saw one ad in the classifieds on SOMD but that was a
little more than I wanted to pay. Anyone have any beagle puppies for
sale? Oh, I have checked all the rescue groups and shelters but haven't
found any purebred puppies.

It's been my experience that getting your first pup trained (housebroken, chewing, basic house manners) before adding another puppy is a much easier way to go. Puppies tend to learn from older dogs and mimic their behavior. With 2 puppies you will have twice the work and they may actually copy each others bad habits . . . "he peed there, I will pee there also . . . he's chewing that sofa, I want that sofa cushion too". Also, two young pups tend to bond with each other rather than the people in the house. When this happens they tend to ignore your attempts to train them and choose to play with their new sibling instead.

Getting an adult, housetrained Beagle would be an excellent way to go but if your heart is set on a puppy, it would be my suggestion to wait a year.

I would prefer a puppy about 4-5 months old. I may however, consider
an older dog. I have looked at the beagle rescue and animal shelters.
The problem is that I start feeling sorry for all the homeless animals
and want to take them ALL home. :frown:

Thanks for the input. My puppy is doing very well with his housebreaking. He rarely has an accident in the house any more and I don't allow him to chew on anything in the house except his toys. I know another puppy would be a lot more work. I may wait a while longer so it won't be so hard.
