Miss Maggie Beagle Nashville, TN

Miss Maggie is a purebred Red-tick Beagle who is looking for a home of her own. She is wonderful girl who was surrendered to rescue after her owners living circumstances changed. Miss Maggie is a sweet gal who is 9 years old. She is perfectly house trained, has excellent manners and has big brown eyes that will charm you into giving her an extra cookie or two. Being a beagle, Miss Maggie will need a securely fenced yard, or a firm commitment to leash walking, otherwise she will follow her nose where ever a good scent will take her. As a mature lady, Maggie is lower energy and would be happy to take a stroll around the block during the week, but can still keep up with you on an adventure on the weekends. Maggie is good with children and other dogs. She has been with a family who is gone during the work day, and would be content to continue that schedule. Miss Maggie is a happy little girl, who would make a great addition to a family looking to add a beagle to their home.

Our main website, www.bigfluffydogs.com has more information about us and the rescue process.

All known information about an individual dog is provided in it's listing. We do our best to provide accurate information, but adopters must understand that each home is different and the dog may behave differently in a new home. Dogs are creatures of their environment and you help make the dog what it will be.

Homes considering adopting a puppy must be prepared for:
1.) Flexible schedules for potty training. Puppies can only "hold it" for one hour per month of age (ex. a 4 month old puppy can only go 4 hours without a potty break).
2.) Crate training until the puppy is at least one year old, to prevent chewing on inappropriate things when you can't supervise.
3.) Socialization: The more positive and varying experiences as a puppy the better, both in and out of your home.
4.) Puppy behavior and life stages are equivalent to a human toddler. It takes at least a full year to have a calmer, well adjusted dog. Patience is required and when your dog's behavior is a positive experience for you and those around you, your patience will be rewarded tenfold, for years to come.
Please do not consider adopting a puppy if you have not thoroughly thought through the pros and cons of having one. So many people end up returning them after 3-5 months because they didn't realize the amount of work involved in raising a puppy.
Patience, appropriate toys, socialization, and obedience training are all musts. All are time consuming, and can be expensive.

All Dogs Require:Supervision with children and obedience training.
Adopters that want to have good dogs must be prepared to put the time and effort into training a dog. Any dog requires work and effort, but a well trained, well socialized dog is more than worth the effort put in to get them there.
