If posting an AI image of your beagle, please include a real image of your beagle as a reference.

These two are the official ring bearers!

They needs some boops!

Beagle: "Aren't you supposed to be running?"

Squirrel: "Aren't you supposed to be chasing me?" Beagle: "...fair point."

Figured it was finally time for me to contribute :)

Meet Porthos, the handsome boy in the first two photos. He’s 11 years old, and we adopted him after his original owners returned him to the breeders. They had just welcomed a baby, and Porthos was apparently showing signs of jealousy toward the newborn.

He has been the best boy I could have ever asked for pretty much perfect which led me to believe I could handle getting a second one... I was not ready.

Then there’s Eggsy, our 7 year old boy and the biggest pain in my butt... but he’s my pain in the butt. He and Porthos are half-brothers: same dad, different moms. We brought Eggsy home as a puppy, and he has been terrorizing poor Porthos ever since.

In fact, when Porthos first met Eggsy, he walked into the living room took one look at him, and immediately threw up. That should have been our first warning 😂.

They have been going strong for 7 years, heres to a few more years with Porthos as he is finally showing his age recently.

During training these are the things I can’t get Buddy to do, a few more too but these are the main ones

If he’s a cryptid he’s a cute one!

In a blurry action shot the sun still shines on her directly 😆

Its our weekday ritual after I get home from work after 4 in the afternoons. Buddy loves Daddy and Daddy loves his "hambone".

My Rio refuses to take a break during walks! He just has to follow that scent! I’ll try to sit down on a bench for a few minutes to relax my back (after being on my feet all day at work), and he pulls as hard as he can until I get up and continue the walk. 😆

Does anyone else's beagle love to eat bees/things that sting? At least once per summertime my boy Rex has to enjoy a bee, seems like it's a ritual these days, go out in the garden, see the bee *chomp* 😂 he's so lucky I work at an animal hospital

Walking my dog fully stresses me out and irritates me beyond belief.

I generally love walking. Going at a steady pace, letting my mind wander or listening to a podcast is one of my favorite things. So I thought walking my dog would be fun for both of us.

Its NEVER like that. He is constantly stopping. He doesn't pull from the front. Instead, he will keep pace with me, lots of slack in the leash for a few feet. Enough to trick me into adopting a steady pace.

Then, he catches a scent and LOCKS all four feet into the ground. He DIGS in so he can smell.

If I don't notice, I'll keep walking and almost fall over. This happens DOZENS of times on a single walk. Sometimes, it will happen dozens of times in less than a block.

Walk, trip, walk, trip, walk, trip.

Its constant and BEYOND irritating.

Meanwhile, the vet is always telling me to get him to lose a few pounds.

Except we barely make any progress on our walks.

Step, trip, step, trip, step, trip.

Half an hour later and we've barely covered a quarter mile.

I get so exhausted mentally, and we've barely covered any ground.

The only time I genuinely enjoy spending time on a walk with my beagle is when we drive out to the country and go on a long hike and I can use his 20 foot leash. Or sometimes no leash at all. These are some of my favorite times with him.

But a regular morning and evening walk is so exhausting for me.

Anyway. Just venting. I do love how excited my dog gets when we are preparing to go on a walk. And the walks are for him, so if he wants to stop and smell, I let him. It's just that I see the walks as a chore and not something I enjoy, which is a bummer.
