The Beagle Welfare Scheme
The Beagle Welfare Scheme was established in 1979 in order to give help and advice on Beagles and where necessary to 're-home' Beagles whose owners are unable to do so.
This website is intended to provide information on the breed, advice on finding, buying and owning a Beagle as well as details of the work of Beagle Welfare.
Beagle Welfare is a UK Registered Charity.

- A Brief Introduction to the Beagle hound
The Beagle is a medium sized hound which stands between 13 and 16 inches high at the shoulder. It was originally bred for hunting hares in packs and today Beagles are normally sociable, mischievous, healthy and delightful members of an active family. Beagles live, on average, for 12 to 14 years.

Like most of us humans, Beagles enjoy some sunshine but prefer to stay in the shade. All responsible dog owners would never lock their hounds in the car during the warmer weather. If you see a dog suffering in the heat of a car, call the Police or car park security immediately.
