Arlo

Hi! I'm a very handsome male treeing walker coonhound! I was born on 1/2/2023, so I'm only about 3 years old. I need a new home because my people have to move to take care of their aging parent & they can't take me with them. I'm an obedient boy - at least sometimes :) I'm also quite active & playful! I really like to play tug-of-war & ball! I'm smart, too! I'm housetrained & crate trained! I'll bark when I need to go outside. I LOVE my crate. I like to sleep in it at night. I'm good around other dogs, & I live with my brother Auzzie. Auzzie also needs a new home, but we are totally fine with going to separate homes. I'm not good with cats, though. If you want to take me for walks on the leash, then I would need some work on leash training. But I'm a smart guy & I would get the hang of it! I'm a big boy! I weigh about 80 lbs. I'm already up-to-date on vaccines & neutered. So now I just need a forever home! Are you it??? Please think about making me part of your family!

Aurora

UPDATED 3/27/206 Hi! My name is Aurora! I'm a female beagle/fox terrier mix puppy! The vet thinks I was born on 12/18/2025. On March 26, 2026, I weighed about 10 lbs. It's hard to say how big I'll get at this point in my young life. I'm a very very active girl! I'm so sweet & cuddly & getting along great with the older dog in my foster home! I'm doing fantastic with housetraining & crate training! I haven't had any accidents in the crate! Right now, I'm crated for no more than 3 hours at a time - then I go outside. Every time I'm outside, I go potty! I'll be up-to-date on age-appropriate vaccines at the time of my adoption. My forever home will have me spayed at the age recommended by their vet (probably 6 months). BTW, that's my brother Sutton, who is also available for adoption, poking his head in one of my photos! Anyways, I'm looking for my forever home! Are you it?? I will not be attending showings. Go to my PetFinder page to see more photos of me! https://www.petfinder.com/dog/aurora-9eb4af7f-b0fd-49de-8435-5c4abe218695/pa/west-decatur/nittany-beagle-rescue-pa98/details/ PA Kennel License #4068

 

Baby

Hi! My name is Baby! I'm a super sweet tricolor female beagle. I'm about 3 years old. I'm very timid & so I need a home who can work with me to introduce me to new situations. I'm so skittish, that I might run. So I need a home that can take precautions to make sure I stay safe. But I am just the sweetest, gentlest girl! I'm great with other dogs! Nittany Beagle Rescue doesn't know how I am with cats. Are you the right home for me? I'm about 35 lbs. I'm up-to-date on vaccines and will be spayed before I'm adopted. Please think about making me part of your family!

 

Benji

UPDATED 3/20/2026 Hi! My name is Benji! I'm a super friendly 8-year old male beagle. I'm a happy pup! I'm a very loving guy! I love to hang out on the sofa with my people! I also love to go for long walks! I was crated a lot in my former home, & so I don't like the crate now. If I have to be confined, then it's better to baby gate me in the kitchen. I've lived with young children & I love to play with them! When I came into Nittany Beagle Rescue, I drank excessively. Nittany Beagle Rescue took me to the vet & it turns out I have Cushings. I'm on meds for that & they work great! I don't drink excessively at all anymore! The meds for that are $93/month through Chewy. I got a little chunky & I'm on a diet. Once I loose more weight, the cost of my Cushings meds should decrease. I'm housetrained. I usually go outside about 3 times a days. I've lived with another dog & I did ok. I'm great with cats! I'm already neutered & up-to-date on vaccines. Please think about making me part of your family! I've been waiting quite awhile for my forever home to come along! Please think about making me part of your family! You will be so happy you did! Go to my PetFinder page to see more photos of me! Updated photos are coming soon! https://www.petfinder.com/dog/benji-896849c9-14cc-42cb-b7b9-3dfd8b299157/pa/west-decatur/nittany-beagle-rescue-pa98/details/ PA Kennel License 4068

 

Bentley

UPDATED 02/20/2026 Hi! My name is Bentley! I'm a 7-year old male tricolor beagle. I'm a very special guy & I need a special home! I'm a very loving dog! I love to sleep & cuddle! I love to be petted! I'm also active! I like to walk! I want to sleep in bed with you at night! But I'm also pretty insecure. I really need to be close to my person. I'm housetrained, & I'm used to going outside 3-4 times a day. I'll scratch at the door or beg to let you know I need to go outside. I'm not crate trained & I don't like the crate at all. I get worked up when people try to leave me - even if you just want to leave the room. When you do that, I'll block your path & nip/bite at your clothing. I guess I have some issues ... but who doesn't? I really need a patient person who can work with me. I would do best in home with one person who is home all or most of the time. I'm fine with cats & other dogs. However, I don't do that well with bigger, more dominant dogs - they intimidate me! But I'm fine with dogs my size & smaller, & bigger dogs that don't try to boss me around. I also don't like anyone messing with my food. I'm sure you understand ... I mean it's my food & you know how beagles are about their food. I'm fine when I go to the groomers, although I will howl when you turn the blow dryer on! I weigh about 30 lbs. Anyways, I really need a a very patient & loving home with a person who is willing to try to understand me & work with me. Are you it????? Please think about making me part of your family if you are! Go to my PetFinder page to see more photos of me! https://www.petfinder.com/dog/bentley-99df58d0-2bb0-43ab-a2e3-d10d0718af86/pa/west-decatur/nittany-beagle-rescue-pa98/details/ PA Kennel License #4068

 

Buford & Smokey

UPDATED 6/2/2025 Hi! We're Buford & Smokey! We're 12-year old beagle mix brothers. We're very bonded & we need a new home together because our person became ill & was no longer able to care for us. We're gentle & affectionate boys! We love to cuddle & be touched! We're so loving, & we're wonderful companions to each other & our person! We're happy boys & quite sociable & friendly! We like to play tug-of-war, & we really enjoy being outside during the day, playing & hanging out in a fenced in back yard. We're also easygoing. We're used to hanging out on the couch with our person & sleeping in bed with them at night. We've been around teenagers & do fine with them. We're used to going outside 5 times a day. We'll let you know we need to go outside by making small barks and/or excitement around the door. We're afraid of lightning & thunderstorms. We weigh about 70 lbs., but we are on a diet! We eat turkey & venison (beef & chicken dog food don't really agree with us). Both Buford & Smokey take apoquel for allergies. It's possible they don't need the apoquel all year. A home without other dogs would be best since Buford can be a little bossy with other dogs at first. But he will adjust. Please think about making Buford & Smokey part of your family! They need a home & we are such good boys! Go to their PetFinder page to see more photos of us! https://www.petfinder.com/dog/buford-smokey-fe1f3a35-4929-4bc4-a3af-923babfe5101/pa/west-decatur/nittany-beagle-rescue-pa98/details/ Kennel License #4068

 

Buster

UPDATED 2/19/2026 Hi! My name is Buster! I'm a 9.5 year old red & white male beagle. I'm such a super sweet guy! I need a new home because my person died. I lived with Onyx & Snoopy. We're all looking for a home, but we don't need to be together. It was a really, really tough past few months! Our person had to go to the hospital/rehab about 3 months ago, & so family would come & check on us about 3 times a day. Then our person passed away. So it's was really really hard. I'm in a foster home now & I'm looking for my forever home! I'm a very sweet boy! I'm very loving & affectionate! I'm also attentive to my person. Normally I'm very outgoing! Our person used to have parties & lots of people would come & I was great! I loved all the attention when people would come! I used to sleep in bed with my person. I like to play with toys! I love to carry around my stuffed toys! Check out the photo of me carrying my stuffed duck! You can't even see my face! LOL When I lived with Snoopy, he would take my toy & I didn't like that, so we'd get into a fight sometimes. I'm in a foster home with an easygoing older female dog & we get along fine. Sometimes I try to get her to play with me! I do take seizures & I'm on meds for them. Sometimes I will have a breakthrough seizure, but it's very rare & it's very mild. I'm housetrained. When I need to go outside, I will stare at you with my paw in the air. I'm doing pretty good with housetraining in my foster home. I've never been crated. I know how to use a doggie door! I'm up-to-date on vaccines & neutered. So I'm ready to find my forever home! Are you it?? Please think about giving me a forever home! I just really need somebody to love me! Go to my PetFinder page to see more photos of me! https://www.petfinder.com/dog/buster-4184e3bd-55ed-4796-8adc-bc062d0ce81f/pa/west-decatur/nittany-beagle-rescue-pa98/details/ PA Kennel License #4068

 

Calypso

Updated 3/18/2026! Hi! My name is Calypso & I'm a 4 to 5 year old female beagle mix. I'm such a sweet little girl! I'm easygoing & so loving! I'm also very active! And playful! I like to play fetch & tug-of-war! I love stuffed toys! I love to play with other dogs & so I really need a home where I have a young, active dog who can keep up with me when we play! I can be a little bossy with other dogs, though. So my doggie playmate should probably be on the submissive side. I've also lived with young children & cats, & I do great with them. I'm a sensitive soul. I can be timid when I first meet you. I'm basically housetrained. I've been left alone for a few hours at a time & I've done great. I'm used to going outside about 4 times a day. I will go to the door, but my person needs to notice that I'm at the door. If you aren't watching, I might have an accident in the house. While I'm crate trained, I don't like the crate. I become quite frantic to get out of the crate. I'm perfect for someone who is home most of the time! I like to hang out on the furniture with my people. At night, I like to sleep in bed with my person, or on the floor in a dog bed. I ride well in the car! The best way to get me to do something is to offer a treat. I'm a beagle, so if you leave food on the end table, I'll probably eat it! LOL It's ok to use a firm voice every now & then - but I am sensitive so your voice shouldn't be loud. I would love to have a fenced in yard since I'm so active! I'm already spayed & up-to-date on vaccines! Now I just need my forever home! Are you it?? Please think about making me part of you family! Go to my PetFinder page to see more photos of me! https://www.petfinder.com/dog/calypso-15938804-dc24-42be-a85c-a9ccc83b37d5/pa/west-decatur/nittany-beagle-rescue-pa98/details/ Kennel License #4068

 

Dolly

UPDATED 4/3/2026 Hi! My name is Dolly! I'm a female beagle/fox terrier mix puppy! The vet thinks I was born on 12/18/2025. I weighed about 13 pounds on March 26, 2026. It's hard to say how big I'll get at this point in my young life. I'm a very sweet & cuddly girl, & I'm good with the other dog in my foster home! I'm working on housetraining in my foster Home & making great progress! I will be up-to-date on age-appropriate vaccines at the time of my adoption. My forever home will have me spayed at the age recommended by their vet (probably 6 months). Anyways, I'm looking for my forever home! Are you it?? I will not be attending showings.

Jim & Mandy

Hi! We're Jim & Mandy! Were bonded brother & sister tricolor beagles! We're so very sweet & we adore people! We're very affectionate! We're also quite active & playful! We're used to having a fenced yard & we love to run around the yard & chase squirrels! We also love to hang out on the couch with our people! We're crate trained. At night, we like to sleep with each other on a dog bed. When we go somewhere, we're usually crated in the car. We can be bossy with other dogs & so we really need to be the only dogs in the home. We've never lived with cats & so Nittany Beagle Rescue doesn't know how we are with cats. We're 5-6 years old & we each weigh about 25 lbs. We can't wait to find our forever home! Are you it? Please think about making us part of your family! We're up-to-date on vaccines & spayed & neutered. In the photo with both of us, Jim is on the left & Mandy is on the right. Go to our PetFinder page to see more photos of us! https://www.petfinder.com/dog/jim-mandy-ad3cf69e-5b93-4ba0-8815-bc32bcd81140/pa/west-decatur/nittany-beagle-rescue-pa98/details/ Kennel License #4068

 

Melanie

Hi! My name is Melanie! I'm a 5-6 year old female tricolor beagle. I'm the sweetest little girl! I'm quite loving & affectionate! I only weigh about 20 lbs.! I'm active! I like to play ball! And I love to be outside to sniff everything! I ride great in a car! I'm quite friendly! I'm great with other animals (except rabbits!). I should be ok living with an older child, like 10 & older. But it's important the child treat me with respect. I was rescued by a very nice person about 2 months ago. At night, I like to sleep in a dog bed next to my person's bed. Before my person rescued me, I was living outside in a pen for the past couple of years. I do need work on housetraining. I will circle before I potty, but I don't make any sounds. So you have to watch me. I did not have a fenced yard in my prior home, & so I was exercised on-leash. During the day, I would forget to go potty on the leash because I just get so excited with all the smells & things going on outside. At night though, I'm pretty good about doing my business when outside. I'm not crate trained. (I will pee in the crate). I'm living in a boarding kennel now with a doggie door to the outside kennel. So Nittany Beagle Rescue will see if that helps in terms of going outside. I'm up-to-date on vaccines & will be spayed before I'm adopted. I really want to find my forever home! I really love people! Please think about making me part of your family!

Mimi

UPDATED 3/17/2026 Hi! My name is Mimi! I'm a 7-year old tricolor female beagle. I'm such a sweet girl! I love to give kisses! I used to be used for breeding. But my owners retired me & gave me to Nittany Beagle Rescue! I used to live in a barn. But I'm in a foster home now & I LOVE it! I love to lay on the cushy pillows & dog beds! I'm laid back - BUT I LOVE to play with other dogs! I really need a home where I have a doggie playmate! I'm also an escape artist & I'm very good at climbing! (I can climb over 4 foot baby gates!) So I need a securely fenced in yard - but not chain link, because I'll climb that for sure). I have managed to get on the counter in my foster home & I'll drop treats to the other dogs there. I'll also dash out the front door, so my new home will need to figure out a way to stop me from doing that! I guess I'm a bit of a stinker! I'm housetrained! I'm a little timid at first, but then I quickly warm up! I'm used to being around children of all ages on the farm where I lived. I'm up-to-date on vaccines & spayed! So I'm ready for my forever home to find me! Please think about making me part of your family. Go to my PetFinder page to see more photos of me! https://www.petfinder.com/dog/mimi-1c029bcc-38c0-45d8-a51f-974216d5c908/pa/west-decatur/nittany-beagle-rescue-pa98/details/ PA Kennel License #4068

 

Mochi

Hi! My name is Mochi! I'm a lovable, very energetic 6-7 year old female beagle mix! I love to play tug-of-war! I'm a friendly, very affectionate girl! I love to have my belly rubbed! I like to be cuddled & sit on my person's lap! I like to sleep in bed with my person! When I'm chilly, I like to sleep cuddled up against my person's legs! I love being talked to with an upbeat excited voice! I'm active & playful, & I really need someone who can get me the exercise I need! I'm housetrained for the most part, although I might have an accident a few times a month. I'm used to going outside 5 to 6 times a day. I don't really tell you when I need to go outside. So I would do best in a home with a fenced yard - that way I can get the exercise I need & go out a lot! I'm crate trained, although I'll whimper in the crate if I know you're there. I don't really like cats. I'm in a foster home with 3 other dogs, & we get along great! I love to play with them! However, when I go for walks, I'm not good with the other dogs that pass by. I don't like to share my food with other dogs. But I'll share my food with people! I don't like car rides - I get car sick. I'm just a little thing - I'm about 20 lbs. I just really need someone who will love me & who will give me the forever home that I need! I have a scar on my back. The vet thinks it's from an old burn. I'm already spayed & up-to-date on vaccines, & so I'm ready for my forever home to make me part of their family! Please think about making me part of your family! I want a forever home so bad!

I'm very loving! And I'm playful! I love to play fetch, ball & tug-of-war! I'm housetrained. I'll go to the door when I need to go outside. I usually go out every few hours during the day. I'm also crate trained! I ride well in a car! I've lived with cats & other dogs. I'm fine with the cats. Some dogs I don't like. I would do best as the only dog in the home. I've got tons of energy & I really need a person who can get me outside & exercise with me! I would love a fenced yard! I will jump on people & so I need some training on not to do that. I would knock a child down because I'm so exuberant & excited to see people! I'm already spayed & I weigh about 65 lbs. Now I just need my forever home! Are you it? Please think about making me part of your family! I really need a forever home!

Sebastian

Hi! My name is Sebastian! But you can call me Mr. Congeniality! I'm a male blue tick beagle. I'll be 11 years old on 3/15/26. I'm a pretty chill guy! I'm easygoing & sociable! I'm also a happy fellow! I enjoy playing a good game of tug-of-war! Plus I'm so loving & affectionate! I can be a little insecure sometimes. So you want to take your time introducing me to new things. I really enjoy being outside! I usually go out about 5 times a day. I'll ring a bell or sit at the door to let you know I need to go out. At night, I prefer to sleep with my person. I like to be under the covers with you! When no one is home, I just sleep on the couch. I'm crate trained, but I'm used to being crated only when I eat. I'm pretty food driven, as most beagles are! LOL I'm a pretty skilled counter surfer! You do need to push the food on the counter all the way to the back of the counter ... because I'm a beagle! LOL I've lived with other dogs & cats & I get along great with them. Most recently, I've lived with teenagers & we got along great! I enjoy car rides. I need a new home because my person had to move. I'm up-to-date on vaccines & already neutered. Now I just need my forever home to come along. Are you it?? I'm so anxious to find my forever home! Please think about making me part of yours!

Snoopy

NEW PHOTOS & UPDATED 2/19/2026 Hi! My name is Snoopy! I'm a 9-year old tricolor male beagle. I'm such a very sweet & sensitive guy! I can be a little timid at first. But once I warm up, I'm so very sweet & loving! I love to sit on my people's lap, & to be touched & petted! I need a new home because my person died. I lived with Onyx & Buster. We're all looking for a home, but to be honest, I would really prefer to be the only pet. Although I should be fine with an easygoing canine brother/sister! It's been a really, really tough past few months! Our person had to go to the hospital/rehab about 2.5 months ago, & so family would come & check on us about 3 times a day. Then our person passed away. So it's just been been really really hard. I'm very loving & affectionate! I'm also attentive to my person. But this whole situation has made me feel pretty insecure. But normally I'm very outgoing! Our person used to have parties & lots of people would come & I was great! I loved all the attention when people would come! I used to sleep in bed with my person. I like to play with toys! I like to chew on them for awhile & make them squeak! :) I used to take Buster's toy & so we'd get into a fight sometimes. I also don't like it when the other dogs get near my food or my person's food. I have taken seizures in the past & I'm on meds for them. The meds seem to work great. I'm housetrained. When I need to go outside, I might look at you. But I'm not always real clear on letting you know I need to go outside. With my person being gone so long, we all started having accidents in the house. So I may need a bit of a refresher on housetraining. I was in a place before I went to the home I just came from. In my very 1st home, I was crated all the time & lived in my own filth. So I was never crated once I arrived at my past owner's home. Sometimes I will cringe if you pet me, & I don't really like my tail touched. I know how to use a doggie door! I'm quite smart! Boy, do I LOVE the snow! Check me out in my video on my PetFinder page! I'm up-to-date on vaccines & will be neutered before I'm adopted. Please think about giving me a forever home! I just really need somebody to love me!

Sutton

UPDATED 3/27/2026 Hi! My name is Sutton! I'm a male beagle/fox terrier mix puppy! The vet thinks I was born on 12/18/2025. On March 26, 2026, I weighed about 11 lbs. It's hard to say how big I'll get at this point in my young life. I love to sit on my people's laps! I'm so sweet & cuddly & getting along great with the older dog in my foster home! I'm doing fantastic with housetraining & crate training! I haven't had any accidents in the crate! Right now, I'm crated for no more than 3 hours at a time - then I go outside. Every time I'm outside, I go potty! I'll be up-to-date on age-appropriate vaccines at the time of my adoption. My forever home will have me neutered at the age recommended by their vet (probably 6 months). Anyways, I'm looking for my forever home! Are you it?? I will not be attending showings.
