I am a small scale hobby breeder of AKC Beagles located in Southwestern Illinois near St. Louis, MO.
First and foremost, I breed for Beagles that meet the AKC Standard for health, type and temperament. I breed specifically for something to show and add to my breeding program. What puppies do not "make the grade" for the show ring or to add to my breeding program are sold as pets or performance dogs to approved homes at 8 wks or later. All of my pet and performance puppies are sold on a Limited AKC Registration with a Spay/Neuter Agreement. I also have show quality puppies available occasionally. Show puppies are sold under different terms and conditions to experienced show homes only. Serious inquiries are welcome. Please fill out and submit the "Puppy Questionnaire" under the "More" tab.

Below, I have included some informative and interesting information about the Beagle:
Description: The Beagle has soft brown eyes that portray his warm personality but do not reveal his admirable courage and stamina. A truly trustworthy friend can be found in him and he makes a great family pet as he is eager to romp and play. A good watchdog he can be trained to hunt. Known as the "singing Beagle" he has a sweet hunting voice, but if left alone may howl. Training will alleviate this problem. He will adapt well to a home or kennel environment, but new owners should be aware of natural hunting instincts and he should not be left alone for long periods of time or allowed to run freely unsupervised.
