Lichaam en bouw

Beagle is a medium dog with companion background whose build should be read beside high movement demand, moderate trainability, and a grooming load of 2/5.

Beagle history is built around pack scent work: nose down, tail up, following odor trails with persistence. That is why modern Beagle training must respect scent motivation, social food drive, and realistic recall under distraction.
