Here's what the humans have to say about me:
OK- you got us. Peanut is not a purebred beagle. BUT, he is a research hero and we brought him into our Lab to Leash Division after he helped researchers and veterinarians make important advances in parasitology. We did a DNA analysis of Peanut, and his results came back as 37.5% beagle, 25% German Shorthaired Pointed, 12% English Spring Spaniel, 12% Portuguese Water Dog (??!) and 12% mixed hound. The one thing all of those breeds are is: friendly, and that describes Peanut to a tee!
Peanut is 3 years old and just wants to please you. He LOVES toys, so they must be in abundance in his adoptive home! The other breeds mixed in with the beagle resulted in a dog who LOVES to fetch! Peanut struggles a little bit with understanding the social cues of other dogs, so we recommend placing him as an only pet. He does fine with some dogs, and he just seems to really annoy others! Peanut is a curious dog and with a Sporting and Hound background, he does have a strong prey drive, so although he does not want or try to hurt the cats in his house, his instinct is to chase, so we suggest no cats in the home at all. Peanut would do best with experienced dog owners who have the time to help him with his housetraining. Since he wants to please and is food motivated, training will go well with the right adopter! We would love to see Peanut with an active adopter who will take him on walks, and introduce him to the world. Peanut loves every person he has met and has an excitement and zest for life that should match that of his adopter!
