Hi there, I am Cosmic Brownie. Yes, sigh. My foster parents call me Brownie. They say I am a sweet, little (23 pounds and low riding) boy. I do need to work on my trust skills with people. I will come trotting up, or follow behind you, with my tail wagging, but if you go to pet me, I tuck my tail and get a look of worry in my eyes. But we are working on that. I am also not a big snuggler. Foster mom likes to do snuggling practice with me to help. But I sit in her lap for 5 minutes, and then get down. I am pretty quiet for the most part, until I see those pesky squirrels, and I let them have it. I have a couple of toys I will chase around. I can still get my groove on, see my video. I would love people food, and try to counter surf, but I am too short to get my nose up there. But I will settle for a treat ball and whatever treat goodies you have.
I walk pretty decently for a beagle, but I need to stop and smell, of course. I also ride well in the car; I just lie on the back seat. I am crated while everyone is at work, and no problems. At night, I sleep in a doggy bed or on a doggy pillow, and I sleep through the night. Foster dad loves that.
I do need a fenced yard as I like to run around, and when I need to have a bowel movement, I am all over the yard until I go. Older kids only, as I have not been around small kids, and a quieter home would probably be best for me.
My foster parents think I might have been an outside dog. I seem much happier and less timid when outside versus in. I have learned to love the dog pillow and bed, though!!!
I am pretty much house-trained. I will go to the door, or if you see me get antsy, take me out. You do have to keep an eye on me as I still have moments where I want to go before getting outside. A home where someone is around at least part-time, might be best, so I don’t have to hold it all day long.
If you think I’m the right boy for you, please contact your Midwest BREW adoption counselor.
NOTE: Dog may be located in any of our six volunteer states (WI, IL, IN, OH, PA, MI).
