Nittany Beagle Rescue - Jill

Bio at the Time of Adoption

Hi! My name is Jill & I'm an 8-year old female beagle. I need a home because my person passed away. I've lived all my life with 2 other female beagles outside as a hunting dog. I'm in a foster home now & I'm LOVING it! I'm very mellow & I'm doing well with the other dogs in my foster home. I LOVE to be cuddled & to sit on a person's lap all the time! If you are walking around the house, I will follow you with my tail wagging! My foster home calls me a Velcro dog! I'm making great progress on housetraining & house manners. I haven't had an accident in the house yet! I'm very smart! I'm learning fast about living in a home. Because I haven't been around young children, I will be placed in a home with older children (8-12 years) or no children. I don't know how to walk on a leash, & so that is something I need to learn. Because I never went anywhere, I'm pretty timid in new situations. I'm having back issues & this is showing up through some lameness in my back legs. I'm on meds now & I'm doing much better. But it's possible it's a chronic issue, & so I will have a back x-ray when I'm spayed just to see. Once I'm better, I'll need a home where I will have a securely fenced yard. I have been known to dig under a fence, so it needs to be secure. I will run off looking for bunnies to chase if I get loose. I'm anxious to become part of a family as a member of the household. Please think about making me part of your family! Click on my page to see another photo of me!
