ready for love?

Used to cats: Has not lived with cats or other animals

Used to children: Gets a bit excited and jumps at first, but after that is good

Other dogs: Currently being fostered with 2 other beagles, who are a few years older than him. Would suit a home with another dog, of similar age. He loves the company of other dogs and loves to play 

Training: Requires some training with Kitchen expectations. He jumps up to the bench when there is food

Temperament: Very sweet, friendly, loving and loyal. And protective, looking after his pack. He loves to cuddle right beside you on the lounge. Follows his humans when they leave the area, loves to be by your side.

About: Needs a family who will spend time with him. Is really smart and learns quickly. Has learnt from our dogs how to settle and relax and have down time. Good with visitors to the house and children, he’s very excited and jumps a little at first. Loves routine and consistency. Has adapted well to our routine. Enjoys and looks forward to his daily afternoon walk, but we have missed a few and have provided alternate stimulation. He’s vocal when excited and shows his excitement with barks and some jumping.

As usual for any dog in foster care, anyone interested in adopting OLI is asked to submit an Application Form. An application is not binding, it helps us to assess each potential family to help us find OLI’S perfect match.

All applications will be assessed and we will arrange for those who we think may be a good fit to chat to OLI’S foster carer to find out more. Following this a meet and greet will be arranged with OLI’S potential new family. Please note it’s important as many members of the household attend the meeting as possible. It is essential that our foster dogs meet any other dogs in the family at the meet and greet.

We do not operate on a ‘first come, first served’ basis. All our beagles are individually matched to their new families to try and achieve the best chance of success in their new home. All our foster beagles go to their new homes on a 30-day trial basis to allow everyone to get to know each other better. If for any reason, during that period it looks like it won’t work out (hey, it happens, and that’s ok), BRN must be notified and the beagle returned to their foster carer.

If your application is not successful, please don’t feel that means we don’t think yours is a great home for one of our foster beagles. It merely means that in this instance, we felt there was a stronger ‘match’ in another applicant.

Used to cats: Has not lived with cats

Used to children: Has not lived with children. She is not suitable for a house with small children

Other dogs: Currently lives with another dog, but is not getting along with them and needs to be an only dog. She is very unsure around other dogs, and her hackles will rise and starts to bark, thinks she’s 6 foot and bullet proof 

Training: Echo goes for walks every day except during thunderstorms. She is doing very well, will stop when told sit and lay down for treats and knows her teat stops. She has played fetch and tug of war. She has a toilet tray inside but prefers to wake me up to go outside

Temperament: Besides her jealousy, she is very unsure of new people who have been wonderful trying to help her overcome her insecurities. I would not put her near small children, they move too fast. She lacks manners around food and will need strong guidance to redirect her food possessiveness before it turns into food guarding (will openly steal food from people and other dogs). We have been training her with biscuits between ourselves and with Halo we go around taking turns one for mummy or daddy one for Halo one for Echo.

About: Preferably adults who can give her attention and lots of love. Definitely no little children. She is best suited as an only dog, her jealousy of Halo is worrying. Can be very loving and affectionate.

Echo will need secure fencing, as she can climb horizontal slat fencing, in a good sized yard so she can have a run around (she also likes to dig). She enjoys sharing peanut butter toast and treats (of course). She loves to sit inside and watch TV with her people, and enjoys a cuddle. She can be anxious when left alone for long periods. She is a loving, intelligent and affectionate girl.

Please contact BRENDA on 0419 268 946. Echo will remain in her home until BRENDA has made a decision about her new family.

Please note that as a private rehoming, we know only what Echo’s owner has told us. She are not in care with Beagle Rescue NSW and we have not assessed her. Echo’s owner will field all enquiries and make all decisions regarding her new home. Once Echo’s new home is chosen, her current and new owners will need to complete and sign a Form C3A together, then lodge the completed form with council (no cost) to transfer her ownership details. Alternatively, ownership may be transferred online via the NSW Pet Registry (both current and new owners will need to register an account; current owner needs to ‘claim’ the dog, then transfer them to the new owner, new owner must ‘accept’ the dog to transfer ownership).

We recommend all dogs go to a new home on a trial basis, and that the trial period should be 30 days. In the event things don’t work out (it happens), the dog would be returned to their original owner who would again seek to find them a new home. We recommend change of ownership forms are not submitted to council until a successful rehoming has been agreed at the end of the trial period.

Used to cats: We have a young cat – he stays inside and the dogs are outside. If the dogs come inside the cat gets kept in another room with the door closed. When we first had the cat arrive the dogs would bark excitedly at the glass door – it seemed they were more excited to play than aggressive. However I was always too nervous about the dynamic of three dogs and 1 cat so I have kept them separate. Therefore not able to comment how they would go one on one with a cat.

Used to children: We have 5 children 3, 4, 10, 12, 12 and the dogs have grown up with them. Kids absolutely love the dogs and the dogs love them. All the dogs are very friendly with the kids and we have never had a moment of aggression. Occasionally, if both kids and dogs get excited the dogs can jump – not an issue with older kids but the little ones know to tell the dogs firmly no and to sit and the behaviour stops very quickly. Maxie and Frankie sit on command promptly.

Other dogs: The girls have always lived together and currently also live with our third beagle, Marlie (2 yr desexed male). All dogs get along well. Marlie is the baby of the group so often at feeding time if he tries to steal food the girls will quietly growl to which he swiftly backs off and returns to his own bowl. We supervise feed time to make sure no one overeats. Otherwise all dogs get on well with no aggression or fighting. Being rural dogs, they don’t often come across other dogs – when we have been in town they usually get very excited to see others. 

Training: No formal training. Frankie and Maxie will both sit on command.

Maxie is a classic gutsy beagle so we watch her weight with a weight controlled dry dog food.

All three dogs have been with us since puppies (8 weeks old) and been much loved family pets since their arrival for our busy family of 5 kids. Maxie and Frankie have been living their best life roaming their large rural backyard, sniffing and snacking like beagles do best! Frankie and Maxie have Master Dog Breeders Association papers. All sleep outside happily in a kennel but also crated inside during winter months with no dramas. They are house trained and will let you know when they want to go outside. Being Beagles and known for their escape artistry – good fencing is a must please!

It is absolutely heartbreaking for us to consider rehoming them but with our busy lives we are frequently away from home and we feel they would be happier surrounded by humans regularly and to also be walked more frequently.

Please contact AARIELLE on 0423 221 282. Maxie & Frankie will remain in their home until AARIELLE has made a decision about their new family.

Used to cats: He plays and barks at birds in the backyard, they will swoop him and he will jump at them. He isn’t friendly with cats. No other issues observed with other animals

Used to children: He hasn’t lived with kids full time, he has been around newborns and I’ve observed him being soft and curious. he isn’t a biter or a tackler no matter the age he plays with he only plays with toys. I can confirm he hasn’t been with an infant outside of a pram (I.e baby on the ground). He has been around 4-8 yr old kids and he has jumped on 1 kid trying to get a ball out of the kids hand. He has had regular visits of all ages with smaller kids, years between interactions. So monitoring with interactions would still be advised until confident

Other dogs: Hasn’t been trained to interact with dogs, he used to love playing with dogs when he was younger and as he has gotten older he tends to bark at and lunge towards dogs – I paid a behavioural specialist and I have seen improvements with training. I can’t promise that he will ever like other dogs he prefers to interact with people

Training: Behavioural training. Basic command training

Temperament: He is a very chill dog majority of the day, he does bark at possums at night and will bark if motor cycles zoom past the house – he does listen to come inside when enough is enough

About: Chester needs an experienced owner and is only suitable for someone with knowledge of managing dogs with strong personalities. He will need a strong guiding hand. The problem I have with him is that I got him when I was too young and naive and careless. If you knew what I knew know back then his training would have been very different: he has claimed the alpha role and he does listen and then doesn’t listen to me when it comes to training. I have observed through other people and trainers that his attitude to the alpha role is very different with other people. He respects their authority more
