Beagle and Parson Russell Terrier Dogs Available for Adoption

Hi. I’m Delaney. I’m 12 weeks old, 18 pounds, and approximately 87% curiosity, 10% snuggles, and 3% pure spice.

I’m a beagle mixed with something scruffy, which basically means I have a detective nose and the confidence of someone much, much larger than 18 pounds. If you put a toy somewhere “safe,” I will locate it. If you think the crate latch is secure, I will examine it closely. I’m not being naughty — I’m conducting quality control.

I’m the first to investigate new things, the first to start the wrestling match, and usually the last one to admit I’m tired. I love playing with my littermates and the resident dogs. I can zoom, tumble, and hold my own like a tiny boss.

But plot twist: I am also a professional lap occupier. When I decide it’s cuddle time, you don’t really get a vote. I will climb into your lap, sigh dramatically, and melt like I haven’t been running the place all day.

I use pee pads in my pen like a civilized young lady, and I’m working on going potty outside. I’m smart — very smart — so once I’m in my own home and not distracted by my siblings, I’ll pick it up quickly. Just be prepared…I learn things fast. All things. Even the things you didn’t mean to teach me.

I’d love a home with another dog to play with, or an active, present family who appreciates a little personality. I’m not a background character. I’m the main event. The spark. The entertainment.

If you’re looking for a curious mind, a brave little spirit, and a professional lap-warmer…please apply online, at https://bigfluffydogs.com/dog-adoption/ and email paige@bigfluffydogs.com.

All known information about an individual dog is provided in its listing. We do our best to provide accurate information, but adopters should 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 (i.e. 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 ten-fold, 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 to get them there.

The Beagle is a beloved breed known for its friendly nature, curious personality, and distinctive howl. These small to medium sized dogs are incredibly sociable and get along well with both humans and other pets. Beagles are curious and energetic, always eager to follow a scent with their incredible sense of smell, making them excellent hunting and tracking dogs. Their short coat is easy to maintain, and they are adaptable to various living environments, making them popular companions for families and individuals alike.

The Parson Russell Terrier is a spirited and intelligent breed known for their energetic nature and strong hunting instincts. These small to medium sized dogs have a compact, athletic build with a wiry coat that can be either smooth or rough. They are highly active and require plenty of exercise and mental stimulation to prevent boredom. With their playful demeanor and friendly personality, Parson Russell Terriers make loyal companions for active families who can provide them with the attention and exercise they need.
