What to Know About
Beagle Dog Training in South Bend / Elkhart, IN
Beagles are small, active companions that are perfect for adults and kiddos. They have a beautiful short coat with combinations of brown, white, and orange. And we can't forget those floppy soft ears that are so fun to rub!
Beagles are from the hound family and were bred for hunting with a keen sense of smell and intuition. Today, in many areas of the world, these dogs are still being used for hunting small game like rabbits and birds. Because of their breeding history, they make for a unique breed of dog.
These intelligent dogs can also make great family pets, but Beagle dog training in South Bend / Elkhart, IN can take a lot of work. That's where Dog Training Elite Michiana comes in.

There are a few things to know that will make training your Beagle easier. Here are some helpful things to know about the breed:

- Crate training can keep your dog safe and avoid unwanted behaviors like chewing on household items.
- Beagles are highly energetic and require sufficient amounts of enrichment and exercise.
- Their noses control their brains, so they are prone to distractions and wandering.
- Beagles are friendly and great with other dogs and people (including little kids), as long as you socialize them appropriately.
