My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Howie, now called Barney (Barnold, The Barnacle, Barniferus, Barnaby, etc.) is a sweet 1 y/o Tree Walking Coon Hound. He was found in League City, TX at a tractor supply. He is looking for his forever home and comes with a few months of heartworm preventative. He is clear and free of heartworms, though!
Barney’s manners are good, given he is still a puppy! He has learned the word “no” well, but is still a puppy, and is very food motivated. He does listen well, and he is very sweet with kids and other dogs. He has a beautiful hound bay and will bark at almost any new noise to make sure you are safe.
Barney loves to play with other pups and would do best in a home where another younger hound could wear him out! He gets at least one walk a day, though normally two, and is very good on the leash. He does bark at other dogs and people out of excitement, but he is never aggressive toward them.
Barney is a toy dog and can often be found at night tossing his toys into the air to entertain himself. He loves puzzle toys, and tug of war/Fetch.
I often have to say, “he is just a boy!” because he acts so silly. He flops down on top of you, and just does not know how big he is, he is so snuggly, and really loves to be loved on by his person. Barney would make an excellent addition to your family, especially to wear out another pup!
Apply today to make this lanky boy a part of your family!
PS This boy can jump! He will need a tall fence in a secure yard to keep him from going on adventures.

We require an adoption fee ($300 for purebred beagles and coon hounds; $250 for mixes; $200 for special needs or seniors 8 years +; and $350 for pups age 8 mo. or younger) and an adoption contract. ALL dogs will be vaccinated, microchipped and spayed/neutered before adoption!

Go meet their pets

Check our website at www.HoustonBeagleRescue.org for info. We typically have meet & greet events on the second Sunday of each month, from noon to 3:00 p.m. and will always bring several of the rescued beagles to that event, so look up the location of the month on our website, and come meet some adorable beagles! We also periodically hold special activities, and occasionally attend Houston-area adoption events which will be listed on our "events" section of our website. Our quarterly newsletter is published on our website at www.HoustonBeagleRescue.org
