[QUOTE="brandonm_13, post: 685658, member: 7875"] Well, I don't know about beagles anywhere else, but beagles here are one of the least snappy breeds I have ever had experience with. I would definately trust them with children more than any breed I can think of. Based on reading the above statement, I can say: 1. Beagles are not nearly as protective of the bodies are are miniatures. From my experience with them, they act more like dogs twice their size than half their size. 2. Beagles are not nearly as protective of their food as most Pyrenees, terriers, miniaturees, standard aggressive breeds, etc. 3. A beagles head may be the same height as a toddler's but is it less dangerous when a Rottweiler's is twice as high. They can bite wherever they want, not just where their head is. 4. Beagles don't carry the weight of most breeds so if you think a beagle is a danger to knock over a toddler, try raising Laborador's, Pyrenees, hounds, collie's, or anything else that is larger. 5. Most Beagles that are gotten rid of are from homes with toddlers. Well that's probably true (probably true with all breeds). But most people who get rid of them don't have a clue in the first place. They think you can take a newborn and stick a dog in the room with it and everything will be fine. It's a dog and a newborn. If that doesn't tell you something, then you don't need dogs, or children for that matter. I've seen to many parents think that it's funny when little Jimmy tries to take the dog's chew toy away. They don't see the danger in it. 6. We're talking about beagles here!!! How can that be compared to the dangers of a bull??? There is danger in everything, but we're talking about the difference in crossing a road versus jumping across railroad tracks when a train is coming. There just isn't a comparison. [/QUOTE]
