Bandit

UPDATED 1/9/2025 Hi! My name is Bandit! I turned 1-year old on 12/20/2024! So I'm a young guy! I'm supposed to be a beagle/collie mix, but Nittany Beagle Rescue doesn't see any collie in my. I seem to be all hound! I'm long-legged & about 54 lbs. - but I should probably weigh 57 or 58 lbs. I'm super sweet! I love to touch people & lean against them when you're sitting! I love everyone! I'm active of course since I'm a young guy! I'm also playful. I love fetch, tug-of-war & ball! But I'm also easygoing. I like to hang out on the furniture with my people - or I'll hang out on a dog bed on the floor. I like to bark at things when I'm outside -especially squirrels! (I like to chase squirrels also!) But I'm quiet when I'm inside. I've been around children as young as 10 & I'm great with them! I've lived with a big dog & did great with him! I was also in a home for a few days with 15-30 lb. size dogs & I did great with them also. I wasn't good with the cat, though. I wanted to chase her & I barked at her. I'm housetrained. I've always had access to a doggie door but the doggie door is locked at night for about 8 hours & I do just fine! I haven't been in a crate for awhile, but I was fine when I was crated. I'm already neutered & up-to-date on vaccines. Please think about giving me a home - I'm so anxious to have one!

Bella

UPDATED 12/17/2024 Hi! My name is Bella! I'm a very sweet 7-year old female beagle. I need a new home because my people passed away. I'm a very affectionate & easy-going girl! I'm very loving! I'm already spayed & up-to-date on vaccines! I'm good with other dogs. I've been around children of all ages. I came into Nittany Beagle Rescue extremely overweight, & needed to lose over 30 lbs. I've been doing the underwater treadmill at a local vet's office & my foster mom has me on a good exercise & diet regime. I've already lost over 20 lbs. & I feel fantastic! Now that I've lost so much weight, I like to go for walks! Right now, I weigh about 41 lbs., & the vet thinks I should probably weigh about 30 lbs. So I'm still at it - & feeling great! Unfortunately, because of the excess weight I had for so long, my knees got messed up. So we're also working with the vet to help with my knee pain. But I'm making great progress & I'm so happy! I love to lay on my back when I'm feeling good! (You can see my happy face when I'm on my back in one of my photos! :) I'm housetrained & I'm crate trained, but I prefer sleeping in my soft bed. I'm anxious to find my forever home! Because Nittany Beagle Rescue is still working with the veterinarian to get me healthy, I need to stay close to the State College area. Please think about making me part of your family!

Benji

Hi! My name is Benji! I'm a 7-year old male beagle. I'm a very loving guy! I'm also friendly, although I get nervous in new situations. 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! However, I'm pretty energetic & I can be too much for a young child. I had some health issues when I came into Nittany Beagle Rescue. But Nittany Beagle Rescue has had me to the vet, & it looks like I might have diabetes insipidus - that's the one where I'm thirsty all the time & I drink lots of water. It's treated by taking a pill (or eye drops) called desmopressin. I started my pills a little while ago & I'm responding really well! Desmopressin can be expensive, but if you use Good Rx or go to a pharmacy with a good discount program, the cost is very reasonable. (Nittany Beagle Rescue filled my prescription at the Weis Pharmacy & it is about $30 for a month worth.) It's possible I might need fewer pills even! I'm housetrained, but I've had a few accidents in my foster home - although that may be because we're still working on getting the right about of desmopressin into me. I'm already neutered & up-to-date on vaccines. I'm on the chubby side & could use a diet. Please think about making me part of your family! You will be so happy you did!

Billy

UPDATED 10/24/2024 Hi! My name is Billy! I'm the sweetest little tricolor beagle boy! I've lived in a pen all my life as a hunting dog - but my person was no longer able to care for me & wanted a better life for me! I'm in a temporary foster home now & I'm doing fantastic! I'm basically housetrained (although sometimes I will have an accident - but my foster mom is working with me on that). Plus I'm crate trained. I love to sleep on top of my foster dad! I just love to be next to people & to be loved! I'm about 9 years old. I had an injury when I was younger & now I have arthritis in my left rear leg, so sometimes I don't use it. But most of the time I do! I'm neutered & I had a big dental, & so I'm ready to go to my forever home! Please think about giving me a forever home! I'm so anxious to find my forever family! I only weigh about 22-23 lbs. Go to my PetFinder page to see more photos of me! https://www.petfinder.com/dog/billy-72915456/pa/west-decatur/nittany-beagle-rescue-pa98/ PA Kennel License 4068

 

Buddha

UPDATED BIO! Hi! My name is Buddha & I'm a very friendly 10-year old male beagle. I love everyone - dogs, cats & children of all ages! I weigh about 30 lbs. & my hind legs are paralyzed due to a back injury. So people have to provide some extra help with things like going outside for potty. But I come with a great Help 'Em Up Harness to support me. I bark only when I need something. I also have wheels for when I go outside - so I can really travel! I haven't learned to potty while in my wheels yet - but I will learn eventually. I'm a very happy fellow! My favorite thing to do is to cuddle on the couch. I ride well in a car! I'm neutered & available for adoption! It would be nice if at least 2 people were home most of the time, just so you can take turns caring for me. But if only 1 person is home, that's OK also. Please help me find a home! You can see more photos of me on my PetFinder page: https://www.petfinder.com/dog/buddha-50179332/pa/west-decatur/nittany-beagle-rescue-pa98/ PA Kennel License 4068

 

Buford & Smokey

UPDATED 10/23/2024 Hi! We're Buford & Smokey! We're 11-year old beagle mix brothers. We're very bonded & we need a new home together. Our person is ill & it's very quickly coming to a point where she won't be able to care for us any longer. So we need a new forever home ASAP! 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 the 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 40-45 lbs. We eat turkey & venison (beef & chicken dog food don't really agree with us). Buford takes apoquel for itching & Smokey takes furosemide for his heart. It's possible Buford doesn't need the apoquel all year. Please think about making us part of your family! We need a home desperately!

Daisy

UPDATED 12/15/2024 Hi! My name is Daisy! I'm a happy, sweet girl! My people weren't able to keep me any longer & now I really need a home! I'm probably about 10 years old. Everyone loves me! I ride well in a car & I like to go for car rides - at least short rides. (On longer rides I might get sick). I like to be on the couch with my people. At night, I like to sleep in bed with my person. I like other dogs too. I like to snuggle up to them when sleeping. Nittany Beagle Rescue doesn't know how I am with cats - but I'm probably fine! I'm housetrained in a home with a doggie door. Since coming into Nittany Beagle Rescue, I've had a major dental, was spayed & had a chain of mammary gland tumors removed (on both sides)! I'm healthy now! But I will need x-rays in 3-6 months to make sure none of the tumors came back. I just love people! I really want someone to love & to love me back! Please think about making me part of your family!

Daisy May

UPDATED 1/9/2025 Hi! My name is Daisy May! I'm a reddish-black hound mix! I'm a very loving girl! I love to be with people! In fact I would love to sit on my person's lap if you'll let me! I need a new home because my owner is in poor health & isn't able to care for me any longer. I'm housetrained & good with other dogs. I'm 5-6 years old. I haven't been around cats or young children. So I will be placed in a home with older children or no children. I'm about 80 lbs, but I'm about 15-20 lbs. overweight. So I need to go on a diet. I'm already spayed & up-to-date on vaccines. Please give me a home! I miss being with people! Go to my PetFinder page to see more photos of me! https://www.petfinder.com/dog/daisy-may-74629302/pa/west-decatur/nittany-beagle-rescue-pa98/ PA Kennel License #4068

 

Gus

Hi! My name is Gus! I'm a male tricolor 9-year old male beagle. I'm housetrained & neutered & up-to-date on vaccines. I love other dogs! I'm fine with older children, but young children make me nervous. Please think about making me part of your family! I really, really need a family who will love me!

 

Henry

Hi! My name is Henry! I'm a 7-year old male beagle! I'm an easygoing guy! I'm affectionate & happy fellow! I like to play tug-of-war. I love to hang out on the couch or the bed! I also love to lay outside in the sun! I've been around children of all ages, & other dogs & I'm great with them! I've never been around cats. I listen well! I'm also very adaptable - so I adjust to new situations quickly. I ride well in the car - no need to crate me. I am a sensitive guy. I am afraid of loud sounds, & I don't respond to loud or aggressive voices. They scare me. I'm housetrained. I'll go to the door to let you know I need to go outside. I'll bark at you if you don't let me out when I need to go out. I don't really like to be left alone, though. I'll bark if you leave me & I might bark for awhile. But I'm not destructive at all if you leave me. When you get back, I'm so happy! I'll probably have the zoomies for about 5 minutes! I'm not crate trained. I'm already neutered. Now I need a home who will love me forever! Please think about making me part of your family!

Linus

UPDATED 12/1/2024 Hi! My name is Linus! I'm a super sweet beagle mix! I'm only about 30 lbs or so - so I'm a little guy! I love to give kisses! As you can see from some of my photos, I love to cuddle! I'm only 2 years old, so I'm a young guy! I've got tons of energy! (Most young beagles do!) The people who had me before I came into Nittany Beagle Rescue said that I can jump a 4 foot fence! I used to live with 5 & 13-year old children. I'm really good with them, but because of my energy level, I would do better with somewhat older children (say 8 & older). I'm vocal - as most beagles are! But I don't howl that often - just when motivated! LOL In fact, I'm living in an apartment with my foster family & I do great. I've lived with other cats & dogs, & I'm good with them, although I'll chase the cat. I will guard my food when in the crate. I'm crate trained & I do well in the crate. I can usually hold it about 6 hours in the crate. I'm crated at night & when no one is home because I'm a young guy & will probably get into things while everyone is asleep or away. I do well with housetraining if you keep me on a schedule. I'm used to going outside 5 or 6 times a day. I go to the door when I need to go outside. I might have an accident about once a week. I'm used to being allowed on the furniture. I'm already up-to-date on vaccines & neutered! Are you the right home for me? I'm such a great guy! And I'm so anxious to find my forever home! Please think about making me part of your family!

Maggie

Hi! My name is Maggie & I'm a super sweet 6 or 7 year old female beagle mix. I'm great with children & other dogs! I light up when I'm around young children! I love to go on walks! But I will eat things that are not edible - so you have to keep diapers, socks, etc. in places where I can't eat them! I'm housetrained & crate trained. But you do have to pay attention to my signs or I may have an accident in the house. I love getting a bath! I'm already spayed & up-to-date on vaccines. I weigh about 25 lbs. So now I just need my forever home! Are you it?

Marjorie

UPDATED 12/15/2024 Hi! My name is Marjorie - but you can call me Marge! I'm a super sweet, calm hound mix. I'm great with people, other dogs & cats! I love to take lots of naps & to cuddle - cuddling when napping with my person is the best! But I've got lots of spunk & I like to play & do things! I love to go for walks! I'll pull on the leash when walking, at least at first - but what hound doesn't! :) I weigh about 55 lbs. I'm housetrained - just take me out regularly. I will go to the door when I need to go outside & prance. I'm great in a car! I will try to push open a door, so I need a home where the doors are securely shut. I'm also crate trained! I'm good in the crate for 6 hours. And if you leave the crate door open, I'll go in on my own to rest. I'm already spayed & up-to-date on vaccines. I'm 8 or 9 years old. Now I just need my forever home! Are you it?? Please think about making me part of your family! You'll be so glad you did!

Mickie

UPDATED 12/15/2024 Hi! My name is Mickie! I'm a 1.5 year old male beagle! So I'm a young guy & full of energy! I'm quite playful! I like to play fetch, tag, tug-of-war & ball! I'm also very affectionate! I'm so sweet! I love to cuddle with my person! I like to sleep under the covers at night right next to my person. I'm housetrained. I will stare at you or look at the door when I need to go outside. (I've never been in a crate). I love to be outside! I'm good with other dogs! I've never been around cats.

Mochi Girl

UPDATED 12/1/2024 Hi! My name is Mochi Girl! I'm a lovable 6-year old female beagle mix! I'm a friendly dog! I love to have my belly rubbed! I like to be cuddled, & to sleep in bed with my person! I also love to play tug-of-war! I love being talked to with an upbeat excited voice! I'm just a little thing - I'm about 20 lbs. I like to be up high! Like on a table! :) I'm housetrained for the most part, although I might have an accident a few times a week (usually overnight). 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 2 other dogs, & we get along great! I love to play with them! I don't like to share my food with other dogs, though. But I'll share my food with people! I've been passed around & neglected. I just really need someone who will love me & who will give me a forever home! 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 the family! Please think about making me part of your family! I want a forever home so bad!

Oliver

Hi! My name is Oliver! I'm a very handsome beagle boy! I'm probably about 2 years old or so. I'm young, so I'm an active boy! I'm very playful! But I'm also so very loving & affectionate! In fact, I love to sit on your lap when I go for a car ride! Nittany Beagle Rescue doesn't know much about Oliver's history, & so we don't know if he is housetrained or crate trained. But he's a very smart fellow & we think he'll learn fast! Oliver is up-to-date on vaccines & neutered. He's about 20-25 lbs. More photos are coming soon! PA Kennel License 4068

 

Paul

Hi! My name is Paul! I'm a very, very sweet 7-year old male beagle! My person passed away & now I need a new home. I was in a temporary foster home for about 1 week & I got along great with the other dogs there. I get along great with cats! I've lived with children as young as 7 or 8 & I'm great with them!

Pepper

UPDATED 12/17/2024 Hi! My name is Pepper! I'm a super sweet female beagle. I'm about 8 years old. I'm very affectionate & loving! I LOVE to take naps! I'm happy to relax on a blanket. I'm a happy girl, & I'm very sociable! I love to play with chew toys like greenies & whimziees! I like to get most of my exercise playing ball indoors or running around the house with the zoomies! :) I'm great with other dogs & cats. I haven't really been around children, & so I'll be placed in a home with older children who know how to treat a dog (about 10 or older) or no children. I will dash out the door (like most beagles). I'm housetrained & crate trained. When I need to go outside, I'll stand by the front door & stare at you. I like to sleep in my crate at night. I'm usually crated when I go for car rides. I'm already spayed & up-to-date on vaccines. I weigh 23.5 lbs., but I really need to gain some more weight. Now I just need to find my forever home! Are you it? Please think about making me part of your family!

Ruby Sue

UPDATED 10/22/2024 Hi! My name is Ruby Sue! I'm a super sweet female tricolor beagle girl! I used to live in a pen as a hunting dog - but my person was no longer able to care for me & wanted a better life for me! Now I'm in a temporary foster home now & I'm doing fantastic! I'm nearly housetrained! Sometimes I have a little accident over night - but I'll use a pee pad. I'm also crate trained. I'm about 11 years old & I'm in fantastic shape! I'm energetic & I love to go for walks! I'm no slouch! I also love to be petted & to press up against my person! I would love a home where I was petted & petted & petted. I'm great with other dogs! I love to sleep next to older, calmer ones! I'm very respectful of dogs that don't want me around - I just leave them alone. I'm spayed & I had a big dental, & so I'm ready to go to my forever home! Please think about giving me a forever home! I'm so ready to find my forever home! I only weigh about 30 lbs.

Sadie

UPDATED 12/15/2024 Hi! My name is Sadie & I'm a 7-9 year old female beagle! I'm very sweet! I love to sit on the couch close to my person & I really want to sleep in bed with them at night! I'm housetrained in a home with a doggie door! I'm in a foster home with other dogs & I love to play with the other dogs & to play with soft squeaky toys! I'm a little bossy with the other dogs, though. I have some lameness in my rear legs. The vet thinks it could be a back injury that is healing or has healed, or possibly myelopathy. So I need a home with only 1 or 2 steps. I'm very energetic & I love to play - although it's best to make sure I don't overdue it. Nittany Beagle Rescue will be observing Sadie's lameness in her foster home. I also have problems with my ears - I had recurrent ear infections that weren't taken care of prior to coming to Nittany Beagle Rescue. So I had to have one of my ear canals removed. I feel soooo much better! But my other ear doesn't look good. It's possible I may need the ear canal in my 2nd ear removed someday. Sadie weighs about 32 lbs. She is already spayed. Please think about giving Sadie a loving forever home!
