Davey is just the sweetest dog! He follows me everywhere and is enthusiastic about almost everything, especially food and going outside. He is affectionate and loves pets and kisses. I learned today, however, that he does not love baths. :)
He is doing much better with the cat and she is finally tolerating him. Last night, myself, the cat, and both dogs sat on the couch peacefully for a couple of hours. They were all snoozing while I read. So that is very positive. I'd still be cautious about him going to a home with cats but if everyone is patient I think it will work out.
In general his energy levels have leveled off a bit now that he is used to the house and the yard and all the wonderful new things they contain. He chews less and doesn't try to get into things so, um, doggedly. He and Charlie play many times throughout the day and I have never seen any aggression between them. Charlie will need a playful companion.

More about this rescue
Beagle Rescue of Southern Maryland is dedicated to helping all beagles in need. Most of the dogs that come into the rescue are hunter rejects, either because they do not want to hunt, or because they are too old or simply ill. Our goal is to rehabilitate these wonderful companion dogs and place them in forever loving homes. We are a network of foster homes and rely solely on the dedication of volunteers. Our motto is: "Hug your hound, don't take him to the pound."
