Benny Beagle Adult Male for sale in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

Benny's story
Benny is a great, amiable, easy going beagle. He is a big boy, tall and medium build. He weighs 30 lbs and you can see by his picture, hes nearly as tall as our Border Collie.
One year old is a nice round number guess for Benny, but his teeth are brand new, and he is puppy clumsy. When the vet pulled up his lip she said Awe, youre just a baby! So he may be just shy of one year. The main thing is that he is done growing, good to know, since hes already a pretty big boy!
Benny is housebroken. At night he has to go out once after sleeping 4 - 5 hours. He sleeps on the bed, crating does not work for him at night. He can be crated, and needs to be when two legged folks are away, but he really does not like it and should not go to a home where owners are routinely gone 7 - 8 hours every day. He also does like comfort. Loves the bed or couch and is in the pillows or curling in a blanket. Hes a loving dog, and is becoming a more and more cuddly as time in our home goes by.
Speaking of crating, the boy has a bark that will have you thinking youre at Downton Abbey on a fox hunt. He is not especially vocal, but enough!! No apartments or condos (or crabby neighbors) for Benny.
Hes great with the kids, he still mouths a little, but he understands no real well. Children just need to be dog savvy, understand that he is not biting and just trying to play.
Speaking of teeth he also needs to chew, but weve been able to keep him busy with bones. Understandably, he has a hard time figuring kid plush toys from dog plush toys, but again, he understands no really well, he just needs to be watched. He really really likes the bones and our Border Collie and he plays tug a lot so he knows those toys.
Hes a real dyed in the wool food hound. He is so tall that he can pretty much put his paws on the counter and eat like a person. Doesnt even have to stretch!!Training for this and other things will take some patience. Its not that he lacks intelligence, hes just so amiable...he doesnt seem to really understand why some of these manners, or lack of them, could possibly be wrong. He responds really well to correction, but it doesnt stick for long. He is just so sweet.
Benny likes a good run and some exercise, but he is equally fond of his nap time. Soft comfy chairs, blankets, pillows, people.he loves it. Those 30 lbs become 50 lbs real quick if you want Benny to move before hes ready!
We cant wait to find his forever family. Hes just an all around good guy. Bennys not high maintenance, he just wants a place to call home.
