Bagel - Beagle Dog for Adoption in Franklin, Tennessee

Don't let the "senior" label fool you; Bagel still has plenty of pep in his step! This sweet beagle is looking for a family to enjoy his golden years with, and he plans to spend them playing, cuddling, snacking, and soaking up all the love he can get.

Bagel is very hard of hearing and can only hear certain high-pitched sounds, but that doesn't slow him down one bit. He's a smart boy who is already learning hand signals and sign language, proving that old dogs really can learn new tricks!

He's wonderful with dogs, cats, and kids, making him an easy addition to just about any family. Bagel is affectionate and absolutely loves curling up in bed for a cozy cuddle after a day of adventures.

Like any beagle, Bagel is incredibly food motivated (treats are definitely the way to his heart!) and will happily remind you when it's mealtime. In fact, he only really barks when he needs something; whether that's food, a potty break, or a little extra love and attention.

Because of his age, Bagel does need regular access outside to do his business, so a home where someone is around often or one with easy yard access would be ideal.

Bagel has so much life and love left to give. He's hoping to find someone who sees that senior dogs are truly something special and is ready to make the rest of his story the very best chapter yet.

If you're looking for a loyal best friend with a heart of gold, Bagel is ready to fill your home with love, cuddles, and just the right amount of beagle charm.
