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.

Please note that as a private rehoming, we know only what Maxie & Frankie’s owner has told us. They are not in care with Beagle Rescue NSW and we have not assessed them. Maxie & Frankie’s owner will field all enquiries and make all decisions regarding their new home. Once Maxie & Frankie’s new home is chosen, their current and new owners will need to complete and sign a Form C3A together (one form for each dog), then lodge the completed form with council (no cost) to transfer their 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.

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. Marlie being younger is still learning.

Other dogs: Currently lives with 2 other dogs, both female beagles aged 6 and 7 years old. All dogs get along well. Marlie may sometimes try to steal some of the girls’ dinner, however when they tell him to back off he returns to his own bowl. All meals are supervised to make sure no one over eats. Being a rural dog, he doesn’t often come across other dogs – when we have been in town they get very excited to see others. Marlie does the classice beagle howl to greet other pups but then gets very subdued when approached.

Training: No formal training. Marlie is a little stubborn being younger and needs to work on sitting on command.

Temperament: Very friendly, loves humans!

About: Marlie has been with us since 8 weeks old and desexed – he is a happy go lucky puppy who loves any human attention he can get. Marlie has a pedigree with Dogs NSW. Marlie sleeps outside happily in a kennel but also crated inside during winter months with no dramas. He is house trained and will let you know when he wants to go outside.

Used to cats: Lived with 2 cats for most of his 5 years. He ignores them!! Never ever an issue with the cats

Used to children: Has not lived with or had regular contact with children

Other dogs: Jurgen currently lives with another dog (2 year old Spoodle) and they get along well. However, Jurgen has always been good in his own company and may not necessarily need to be with another dog all the time.

He enjoys being in off lead areas. He does tend to wander off and do his own thing after initial excitement. He will come back and interact intermittently. Has always had an acute sense of when any trouble might occur and takes himself away

Training: Puppy school and I attempted ongoing obedience training at home. He has the basics but his scent urge takes over sometimes

Temperament: He is typically very placid however he does get “chatty” when he sees dogs on the street

About: He sleeps a lot. Loves food. He is 29kg. A little taller than the average beagle but vet assured us he is a beagle! Has always had his vet checkups regularly and have copies of recent vaccinations.

Jurgen would do best in a home where he has someone home more often than not and someone who enjoys taking him on walks, he would prefer the bush tracks or parkland to urban areas. We typically walked 5-7km a day.

He would typically sleep all day and wander into the garden for a lay down when I used to work from home. He enjoys long walks where he can sniff, even better if a large fenced area where he could go off lead now and then, but isn’t the type of dog to run around and play in a garden. He can be a little lazy when not actually on a walk! most often found asleep on the couch or floor or tiles.

He would be ok with other dogs or as an only dog if someone was home with him part or all of the day. However, he can stay alone once he gets used to it and has maybe a garden to snuffle and lay in.

Jurgen has never really been exposed to babies or young kids so unsure how he would go. But he is ok with kids he’s encountered who know how to act around a dog. He is typically very sweet, calm, laid back and cannot recall him ever getting angry or snappy.

Please contact JOHN on [details removed]. Jurgen will remain in his home until JOHN has made a decision about his new family.
