Adopt a Beagle

This page lists dogs currently looking for their new home, who are either in foster care with Beagle Rescue NSW, or who are offered for Private Rehoming by their current owner. Beagle Rescue NSW does not place time limits on the dogs in foster care with us.

Dogs for adoption

BRN facilitates the rehoming of dogs in one of two ways:

 

Dogs in foster care

These are beagles who have come into care with us and are currently living with one of our amazing volunteer foster carers. We spend some time getting to know them before embarking on the search for their new homes. All our foster dogs are vet checked for general health and, if needed, brought up to date with vaccinations, flea/tick and heartworm medications. We’ll also ensure we carry out any vet work for specific ailments if needed. We will also ensure any dogs not already spayed or neutered are desexed before they leave our care.
Beagles in foster care are adopted via an application process. Applications are collected and assessed to try and match the individual dog to the applicant we think they are best suited to. This gives our beagles the greatest chance of success in their new home. All beagles in foster care are adopted on a 30-day trial basis – this gives the beagle and their new adoptive family an opportunity to really get to know each other. If at any point during the trial period, the family feels it’s not going to work out, they just need to let us know and arrange for the beagle to be returned to their foster carer. It’s ok if that happens, sometimes, things just don’t work out the way everyone hoped. We know that each dog’s perfect match is out there, and we are committed to finding them.

Private Rehoming

These are beagles who will stay in the care of their current owners until they find their new home. The current owners field enquiries from potential new families and make all decisions regarding their Beagle’s new home. BRN advertises these beagles to our many followers to help connect the beagle in need with those looking to add a beagle to their family.

We recommend all dogs go to their new home on a ‘trial basis’ at first and recommend the trial period be at least 30 days, whereby if things don’t work out within the specified period of time, the dog would be returned to their original owner who would again seek to find their new home. We recommend the change of owner form is not submitted to council for processing until the rehoming is confirmed at the end of the trial period.

As these dogs are not in our care and we haven’t assessed them, BRN is entirely reliant on the information provided by the dog’s current owner. It is the responsibility of prospective applicants to source as much information about the dog they are seeking to home as possible. BRN cannot be held responsible for the outcome of a private rehoming.

BRN’s policy is that any dog listed for rehoming must be desexed before listing, and must be registered in the name of the person requesting the rehoming.

Molly 

Juju
Juju

Rehoming Fee: $350

Microchip #: 991 003 002 417 023

Location: Mardi NSW 2259

Age/DOB: 13 months / 13-05-2023

Sex: Female (Desexed)

Colour: Tri-colour

Vaccinated: 01-09-2023

Heartworm/flea/tick/worming: Not currently given heartworm preventative

Health: No known issues

House Trained: Yes

Allowed Indoors: Yes

Usually Sleeps: On the couch

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

Used to children: Yes. Molly has been around children since she had lived with us. We have a 4,5 and 7 year old. She had been fine with them besides jumping up when excited. However, given Molly’s history it is recommended she not be rehomed to a household with children (or regular visitors) under 12 years old

Other dogs: Molly currently lives with 2 other dogs (10 and 15 years old), she can display aggression over food when other dogs are nearby. There have been scraps between Molly and the 15 year old dog, resulting in the older dog requiring vet treatment. Given Molly’s history of interaction with the 15 year old dog Molly can only be rehomed to a household where she will be the only dog

Training: Previous owner said she had taken Molly to puppy preschool. I have continued training with commands of sit, stay etc 

Molly would be best suited to an experienced family in a single dog household with no resident children under the age of 12 years.

Molly can become ‘jealous’ of other pets receiving attention and is reactive to other dogs when on lead. Otherwise, Molly is a lovely dog who enjoys walks and cuddles. She needs to be the only pet in her household.

Please contact KIRA who is Molly’s owner on 0402 492 233. Molly will remain in her home until KIRA has made a decision about her new family.

Please note that as a private rehoming, we know only what Molly’s owner has told us. She is not in care with Beagle Rescue NSW and we have not assessed her. Molly’s owner will field all enquiries and make all decisions regarding his new home. Once Molly’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 their new home on a ‘trial basis’ at first and recommend the trial period be at least 30 days, whereby if things don’t work out within the specified period of time, the dog would be returned to their original owner who would again seek to find their new home. We recommend the change of owner form is not submitted to council for processing until the rehoming is confirmed at the end of the trial period.

PRIVATE REHOMING – BEAGLE

Flash 

Juju

Rehoming Fee: $250

Microchip #: 900 079 000 139 701

Location: Woongarrah NSW 2259

Age/DOB: 7 years, 4 months / 10-03-2017

Sex: Male (Desexed)

Colour: Tri-colour

Vaccinated: 08-05-2024

Heartworm/flea/tick/worming: Yes. Annual heartworm injection

Health: No known issues

House Trained: Yes

Allowed Indoors: Yes

Usually Sleeps: He has been crate trained since young age. Sleeps in crate at night in the bedroom

Used to cats: Has lived with an older female cat who used to beat him up occasionally. Where he currently is there is a 1yr old female cat that constantly rubs up against him and greets him daily. He is well behaved with friendly and unfriendly cats, he tends to steer clear of cats unless they greet him and is very gentle natured with them

Used to children: Lived and grew up with 2 children from youngest baby birth to oldest 9 years old. He is extremely gentle natured with children, he will lick and cuddle all day. He loves to play outside with kids, has never acted aggressively towards them

Other dogs: Flash is currently living at his grandparents place where they have a 12yr old male basset hound. Flash grew up frequently visiting this house, socialising and interacting with 14yr old Labrador male, 12yr old female basset hound and the 12yr old male basset hound. He is very good with other dogs, he plays well and isn’t dominant in behaviour towards other dogs. He very much likes having another dog around to keep him company. We have found that if left at home without owners but with another dog company he is less anxious and unlikely to act out as much

Training: Basic puppy school 

Temperament: Flash is an extremely anxious dog, he needs to be with people a majority of the day. When he is left by himself he will bark and rip blankets in crate. Due to anxiousness he pants a lot and licks his feet constantly until they are sore. He is currently on anxiety medication twice a day and this helps his anxiety.

About: Flash loves being with the people who love him the most. He just wants to be around his people and be involved with them. He likes to eat (of course), but also to relax around the house, get cuddles and pats, go for walks, and just be spoken to and treated like a member of the family. His perfect day would be to have lots of food and be involved with his families activities.
While he doesn’t require other pets, he doesn’t mind them and will get along fine (although he may attempt to steal their food).

Please contact JANET on 0422 115 354. Flash will remain in his home until JANET has made a decision about his new family.

Please note that as a private rehoming, we know only what Flash’s owner has told us. He is not in care with Beagle Rescue NSW and we have not assessed him. Flash’s owner will field all enquiries and make all decisions regarding his new home. Once Flash’s new home is chosen, his 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 his 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).

Benji

Juju

BENJI IS GOING ON TRIAL SHORTLY. ENQUIRIES ARE PAUSED
Rehoming Fee: $300

Microchip #: 991 001 003 397 092

Location: Botany NSW 2019

Age/DOB: 4 years 2 months / 11-04-2020

Sex: Male (Desexed)

Colour: Tri-colour

Vaccinated: 13 July 2023

Heartworm/flea/tick/worming: Not currently given heartworm preventative

Health: No known issues

House Trained: Yes

Allowed Indoors: Yes

Usually Sleeps: He sleeps in the laundry

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

Used to children: He has regular contact with grandchildren who are currently aged 6 and 9. He has had regular contact with them since he was a puppy and they were 2 and 5. He loves to run and play with them

Other dogs: Does not live with another dog. He’s a very social boy. When we come across other dogs when we are walking he always wants to say hello to both the dogs and their owners. He wags his tail, never barks at them, sometimes play bows, and of course wants to have a good sniff! Occasionally we go to the off leash dog park, but I am very careful to only go in that area when there aren’t too many dogs in there and no really big dogs, so it’s not regular. He runs around and says hello to all the dogs and sniffs everywhere

Training: No formal training, but he sits, stops and sits at street corners when I tell him to wait before crossing, and he always waits for his food until told he can have it 

Benji is a lovely boy, loves attention and pats and walks. He loves other dogs and people. He has a lovely temperament. He really loves his walks. He pulls a bit to start, but only because he’s excited and he doesn’t get to go regularly. If I can manage to walk him a few days in a row, he settles down.

Please contact MARILYN who is Benji’s owner on [details removed]. Benji will remain in his home until MARILYN has made a decision about his new family.

Please note that as a private rehoming, we know only what Benji’s owner has told us. He is not in care with Beagle Rescue NSW and we have not assessed him. Benji’s owner will field all enquiries and make all decisions regarding his new home. Once Benji’s new home is chosen, his 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 his 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).

Hi Future Owner!

Welcoming a new member of the family is an exciting time for everyone. Please remember though, that for the dogs, it can also be a scary and anxious time. They leave behind everything they’ve known so far to go to a new place with strange people, strange dogs, strange sights and smells. It may take them a little while to settle in.

While each dog is an individual, generally try to remember the ‘Rule of 3’ when welcoming a new dog into your home:

  • In the first 3 days your new dog may be feeling overwhelmed; may be scared and unsure of what’s going on; may not be comfortable enough to be ‘themselves’; may shut down and want to curl up in their crate or hide under a table; and may test some boundaries.

  • After 3 weeks your new dog should be starting to settle in; they are feeling more comfortable; they are realising this could possibly be their forever home; they have figured out their environment; they are getting into a routine; they let their guard down and may start showing their true personality; and any behaviour issues may start to emerge.

  • After 3 months your new dog should be completely comfortable in their new home; should be building trust and a new bond with their family; should have gained a complete sense of security with their new family; and should be set in a routine.

Give your new dog space and time to work at their own pace during this initial settling in period.
