Bobby Beagle Charlestown, MA

My name is Bobby, and I'm a handsome Beagle who is about 1.5 years old, weighing a nice 28lbs. I am looking for a special human who will be a confident leader for me to trust in. I am learning a lot in my foster home, and want to keep learning and training, so keep the treats coming!

My foster Mom says that I'm the fastest learner that she's ever met. I am very smart, so training commands is a breeze. Watch my videos for proof (link below)! I know sit, stay, wait, come here, give paw, lay down, leave it, drop it (if you show me a treat), and am working on "go to the bed", and "off". I am, however, slower to trust, so this training isn't as speedy. I display what my rescue friends think are fear based behaviors, so please be patient with me, I'm really trying! Common with insecure dogs, I can be protective of things like very high value food items, and also show defensiveness when I feel cornered. This is very manageable in an adult home, but would be difficult in a home with kids. My foster Mom is working on desensitization and counter conditioning scary things to be not so scary, and this is going really well.

I am great with dogs, my foster sister is my BFF! Dogs my size or smaller are best, I tend to be a bit bossy with bigger dogs, but do always warm up. I LOVE to go outside on walks or to the park, and use my beagle nose to sniff things or run around with my dog friends. I'm a low to medium energy level, and I love my nap time. I am great in the car too. Did I mention I was house trained and up to date on vaccines?

Will you give me a chance? Check out my videos here on youtube! https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCxc6sMqfJJdmVCDCi7M6pyw
