Beagle pups kennel

Are you looking for a Beagle puppy? But don’t know what to watch out for? Where does a puppy come from and how can you recognize a healthy pup? And what about puppy mills?! One thing we can already tell you: Buy your puppy with confidence, or don’t do it at all! Plan a visit to a Ranch and always ask to see the mother dog – to check if your future Beagle puppy really comes from a Belgian breeder.

We, at Woefkesranch, work exclusively with our own Beagles. We do not use parent dogs from other breeders but have a population of around 15 different adult females ourselves. This guarantees that all our puppies are born here, in our Belgian, recognized breeding facility, but also allows us to focus on health and avoid inbreeding.

If you visit a puppy at our Ranch, you will not be asked to see the mother; the mother will simply be shown to you. Because if you’re looking for a Beagle puppy, we only want to help you and your family further when there is mutual trust.

If you’d like to schedule a visit, even just an informal one, please contact us and we’d be happy to welcome you soon to introduce you to our Ranch and its residents. You can also always view our available Beagle pups on our website. For waiting lists, it’s best to give us a call.

Upcoming Litters 2026

As a Beagle breeder, we regularly have young dogs. We ensure that each mother dog is fully recovered from her previous litter, and we breed at most once a year or less. This is important for the health of both the puppies and the mother, which is why we consider it very important.

Buying a Beagle in the Future

You want to buy a Beagle puppy but are not yet ready to adopt one? Then the following options might be something for you?

  • You can register for free on our puppy alert. Then you will receive an email when we post photos of our beagles available for adoption on our website.
  • You can already reserve a Beagle litter in the future. You indicate when you would like a puppy in the pick-up date or remarks field on the reservation form. After submitting the reservation form, a payment of €100 is required to confirm the reservation.

The Character of a Beagle

“Beagles are stubborn dogs, cannot stay alone, and are headstrong.” Or at least, that’s what you often read on the internet about their character. Not entirely untrue, but often greatly exaggerated.

Beagles can really fixate on something. They might be playing with a ball and you want to call them to attention. That’s often harder because this breed really focuses on whatever they’re engaged with (the ball) and disregards what’s happening around them. This works both ways. When you have your Beagle’s attention, they can truly focus. Call it determination—that sounds nicer than ‘stubborn’—and, with training, it is a much more accurate description.

For us, a Beagle is one of our easiest pedigree dogs. Since it is a pack dog (social dog) and is naturally social. You also don’t run many risks with children when it comes to the Beagle breed.

The Beagle is a very playful breed, learns its basics fairly easily, has a low risk of health problems, and loves a walk.

The big advantage is that a Beagle is not a one-person dog. They will not look up to just one person, but to several. This applies both in a group with other dogs and within a family. That is exactly what makes them, in our eyes, a breed for almost all families.

Training tips and advice for raising a Beagle puppy

Raising a Beagle puppy can be an exciting and rewarding experience! However, these energetic and mischievous dogs have specific needs when it comes to training and upbringing. Here are a few helpful tips and advice to get you started:

  1. Start socialization immediately: Beagles are naturally social dogs, but it’s important to expose them at a young age to different people, animals, and situations. This helps them feel comfortable and confident in various environments.
  2. Make training fun and rewarding: By rewarding positive behavior with treats, praise, and affection, your puppy can more quickly understand what behavior is desired. It can also help to correct unwanted behavior with appropriate consequences, such as ignoring undesirable actions or a short time-out. This way your puppy learns what is and isn’t acceptable. However, it’s important to emphasize that punishments should never be harsh or aggressive. The goal is to be clear about what you want from your puppy and communicate this consistently and positively. This approach will make raising your Beagle puppy smoother and more effective!
  3. Provide enough exercise: Beagles are active and energetic dogs that need sufficient physical activity. Daily walks, play sessions, and mental stimulation are essential to prevent boredom and destructive behavior.
  4. Be consistent and patient: No matter how cute and mischievous Beagle puppies can be, it is essential to be consistent with your rules and boundaries. Be patient and give them time to learn and grow. With loving guidance and positive training, they will develop into obedient and beloved family members.

Remember that every Beagle puppy is unique and learns and develops at its own pace. By giving them proper guidance and attention, you can build a strong bond and enjoy an obedient and happy Beagle for life!

The Appearance of a Beagle

Beagles are born in two colors. But after a few days, the third color begins to appear. Their coloring is described as ‘Tricolor’ in terminology.

When a Beagle puppy is born, only the black and white colors are present, but very quickly a small portion of the black hairs change to a brownish shade. The older a Beagle gets, the more black fades to brown. What is white remains white.

Size depends on sex and their bloodline (= lineage). For example, males from the same litter are often one to two centimeters taller than females and generally weigh a bit more. They have a slightly sturdier build.

Female: 12 kg to 15 kg – approximately 38 cm (withers height)
Male: 14 kg to 17 kg – approximately 40 cm (withers height)

A Beagle has floppy ears, like many hunting dog breeds. This means you should regularly check the ears; cleaning is only necessary when they are dirty. They have a ‘medium skull shape,’ which provides advantages for overall breathing (short-nosed breeds have much more difficulty breathing). All of these factors make the Beagle a breed with relatively low chances of medical issues. However, you should always watch out for overweight.

An adult Beagle has a beautiful ‘sword tail’ covered with short, stiff hair. Dogs of this breed go through a shedding period twice a year. During this time, they lose part of their coat to replace it with a different, more suitable fur for the season. This mainly happens during the transition from winter to spring and summer to autumn. Dogs that usually live outdoors shed more because the temperature fluctuations are greater. Brushing is lightly recommended, especially during the shedding period. Bathing, on the other hand, is unnecessary and even discouraged.

Beagle Health

Frequency of veterinary visits: Only once a year (annual vaccination)

Whether a Beagle is healthy or not cannot always be known in advance. Therefore, once again: Buy a dog with confidence and maintain good contact with your breeder. When problems arise with a dog, it is always best to notify the breeder. This information can be very important for their breeding programs, AND a good breeder can also provide more information about their dogs than any other veterinarian. For this reason, we offer all owners a 24/7 service where someone is always reachable.

Health can, in short, be divided into two parts. On one hand, there is general health, whether the dog is free of viruses or not. On the other hand, we look at the genetic component. What the puppy inherited from both its mother and father (DNA, character, temperament, appearance, and other genetics).

In both cases, the breeder holds some responsibility. General health is promoted by the environment (hygiene of the housing) and nutrition (both mother’s milk and high-quality food). Until the pup moves to its ‘Golden basket,’ this is the breeder’s responsibility.

Genetics come from both the mother, father, and ancestors. Here too, we as breeders bear responsibility. For example, a female with Patella Luxation or a male with Hip Dysplasia is excluded from our breeding programs.

That does not mean that your dog cannot develop HD or PL if both of its parents are free of these conditions; it means the chance is significantly reduced. The environment after weaning (leaving the mother) is also very important. A dog can still develop bone problems due to growth that can be affected by neutering/spaying at a too young age. It is even possible that the use of various products against fleas/ticks/pests causes epilepsy. This is not considered a genetic but an acquired problem. In our opinion, the breeder also has the responsibility to warn potential customers about these risks.

A good breeder not only shares information about a Beagle and its character, but goes further. A good breeder knows their parent dogs, provides information about the health of the puppies, and remains accessible to their customers to support them in the future as well.

When you visit a Beagle kennel where they tell you to contact your veterinarian if you have a problem, how professional do you consider that breeder?

Life Expectancy

If you are thinking about getting a Beagle as your new companion, you naturally want to know how long you can enjoy each other’s company! A Beagle generally has a life expectancy of about 12 to 15 years.

That means you can enjoy the cheerful, lively personality of this beautiful dog for many years. However, it is important to remember that every dog is unique, and life expectancy can depend on various factors, such as the quality of care and health services you provide.

Fortunately, Beagles generally have few hereditary health issues, so with the right loving care, good nutrition, and enough exercise, they can live a long and healthy life. Do you think you’re ready to spend 12 wonderful years with a lively Beagle by your side?

How much does a Beagle puppy cost?

The price of a Beagle puppy varies from breeder to breeder. Rarely is there a price difference between a male and a female. A typical price for a Beagle is between €1000 and €1500.

Just because another breeder has less demand for a puppy, you shouldn’t rush to switch locations. Because a dog’s health is priceless. One vet bill can sometimes already offset differences.

Beagle pups fokker

The price of a Beagle is determined by several different factors here. But it should never be determined by health. Whether a dog costs one euro or 10,000 euros, health must always be guaranteed.

Age is the biggest factor why a breeder might lower their price. When a breeder receives a visitor, each of their puppies should have an equal chance of being ‘chosen.’ And price is simply a decisive factor for many.

Additionally, you often find dogs at ridiculously low prices, sometimes with a difference of up to 50%. Usually, it’s not just about older ‘puppies;’ they often originate from Eastern Europe, and you won’t be able to visit the mother dog.

And finally, beauty. We also browse the internet and see what ‘competitors’ sometimes offer as a ‘Beagle.’ The breed purity/standard is sometimes really hard to find.

Finding a good Beagle kennel in Belgium

Beagles are everywhere, at different prices. It’s good to compare prices, but don’t focus solely on the price. Some tips to help you find a good breeder:

  1. Have confidence: When talking to a breeder, consider if you would still want to keep in contact with that person when needed. Who will you contact if a problem arises? If you wouldn’t contact that person but immediately take your dog to a veterinarian, then it seems you have made the wrong choice.
  2. Visit the mother dogs: No mother dogs to see? Then your dog comes from another breeder. You are not dealing with a breeder but a trader. You won’t know where your dog comes from and will always have questions.
  3. Ask your questions: Don’t be afraid to ask too many questions or to ask a ‘silly’ question. A passionate breeder is happy to talk about their profession. If they don’t answer your questions beforehand, they certainly won’t do so afterwards
  4. Watch the dogs: Do you see anything unusual, anything that makes you doubt? Doubts = problems. A healthy puppy has a shiny coat and is playful. Although sometimes that playfulness initially needs some trust.
  5. Don’t get a puppy just to get a puppy: Fall in love with a puppy, take a step back and get to know the puppy. Only choose a puppy when you feel a connection. Don’t take a puppy just because you have time off. You can simply put yourself on a waiting list.
  6. Pay attention to the environment: Clean housing for the dogs is essential. Feel free to ask where the parent dogs stay when they don’t have pups.

The minimum age to acquire a dog is eight weeks for Belgian pups. If you want to get a dog from abroad, it must be at least fifteen weeks old and have a rabies vaccination. For the socialization and training of a Beagle, it is best to purchase a puppy around the minimum age and of Belgian origin.

It is a noble act to want to adopt a Beagle from a shelter, but be aware that these dogs often come with special care instructions. We advise considering this only if you have a lot of experience or already have another dog.

The Importance of Good Nutrition

Oh, nutrition for your Beagle, an important topic we’d like to explore more deeply. Beagles are known for being not picky eaters and often wanting to try everything. However, it is essential to provide your dog with healthy and quality food to ensure they receive all the nutrients they need. Fortunately, there are several brands with a reputation for offering high-quality and nutritious dog food, such as Royal Canin, Eukanuba, Pro Plan, and Hills.

It is important to choose food specifically formulated for the needs of Beagles or dogs of similar size and activity level. These foods are packed with the right nutrients, vitamins, and minerals your Beagle needs to stay healthy. Think, for example, of a balanced mix of proteins, carbohydrates, healthy fats, and fibers.

At Woefkesranch, we strongly believe in the importance of good nutrition for the health and well-being of your Beagle. That’s why we ensure that all our puppies are already accustomed to high-quality food before they go to their new home. We also provide nutritional advice to our clients, so they can continue to offer the right food to their new furry friends.

Keep in mind that every dog is unique and may have individual nutritional needs. It’s always a good idea to consult with a veterinarian about the right nutrition for your Beagle, especially if the dog has special dietary requirements or health issues.

It is so important to properly feed your Beagle because this directly affects its energy levels, coat condition, and overall health. A well-fed Beagle will thrive and bring you joy and happiness for years to come!

History of the Beagle

Oh, the history of the Beagle breed! It is truly fascinating to learn how this breed has developed over the years. So let’s take a trip back in time and discover where these charming dogs come from.

The Beagle breed has a long history dating back to the 14th century in England. Originally, Beagles were bred for hunting small game, such as rabbits. Their excellent sense of smell and persistence made them perfect for this purpose. But did you know that Beagles used to be much larger than the dogs we know today? Over time, they were bred smaller to be faster and more agile at following the scent trails of game.

In the 19th century, an important change took place in the development of the Beagle breed. The famous breeder Reverend Phillip Honeywood contributed to refining the Beagle type we know today. He selected dogs with a gentler character and a more streamlined appearance. This gave the breed a stable and friendly personality, making them not only excellent hunting dogs but also wonderful companion animals.

Over the years, the Beagle breed has become beloved worldwide. They are known for their affection, playfulness, and friendly nature. Beagles have even gained enormous popularity thanks to the iconic role of “Snoopy” in Charles M. Schulz’s comic strips. These smart and lively dogs have proven themselves over time as cherished companions and loyal family members.

Fun Facts About the Beagle

  1. Beagles are often used in laboratories, which in itself is not a fun fact. The reason this breed is chosen is because they are pack dogs, dogs that easily adapt to different environments and get along with other dogs.
  2. The Beagle is sometimes called a hunting dog, and it is. But the Beagle is not used as a ‘purebred’ hunting dog. Again, it functions as a pack dog. In Great Britain, hunting used to be organized on horseback, with a ‘horn’ and a pack of Beagles leading the way. The Beagles were not supposed to catch the game, but to chase it. Because from close range, you cannot shoot game with shotguns. Thanks to their large groups (up to +20 Beagles), large areas could be quickly searched.
  3. There are also two-colored Beagles, the lemon Beagle. This type has no black hairs, only (light) brown and white. The color is rare; puppy mills sometimes use inbreeding to increase its occurrence. This can lead to genetic defects.
  4. Epilepsy is a known condition in this breed. However, by not using products against fleas/ticks/parasites (such as pills or spot-ons), the chance is very small. This condition can also be inherited genetically, so breeders should take this into account.

Frequently Asked Questions About Beagle Puppies

Are Beagles stubborn or difficult to train?

Beagles are intelligent but independent dogs with a strong scent-driven instinct. They respond best to consistent, positive training with clear boundaries and motivation-based methods.

Can a Beagle stay home alone during the day?

Beagles are social dogs and do not tolerate long periods of isolation well. Being left alone must be introduced gradually to prevent separation-related stress or unwanted behaviors.

3. How much daily exercise does a Beagle need?

A Beagle requires at least 60 to 90 minutes of daily exercise. Activities involving scent work, tracking games, or mental challenges are strongly recommended.

Is it safe to let a Beagle off-leash??

Caution is advised. Beagles may follow a scent and ignore recall commands. Off-leash freedom should only be allowed in secure areas or after extensive recall training.

Are Beagle puppies suitable for families with children?

Yes. Beagles are generally friendly, playful, and tolerant, making them well-suited for active families with children, provided their exercise and training needs are met.
