Description:

Beagle Dog for Adoption in Arlington, Virginia, 22204 USNickname: Maple Posted Breed: Beagle (medium coat). Meet Maple. This adorable girl was found running as a stray in Chester, SC. Sadly, stray Beagles are not uncommon in the region. They are still used for small game hunting and are often kept outside, living isolated in hutches or pens. If they won’t hunt, they are regularly set free by their owners with no care for their welfare. It’s not uncommon to see Beagles roaming in the area, often in pairs. Thankfully, Maple was taken in by a local resident who saw her roaming on his property. There was no room at the local shelter, so he kept her until he could find a rescue to take her. We were happy to help this sweet girl, and she’s had an easy transition to home life. Maple was fostered in an active home with a mom, dad, two young dog playmates, and three kids, 5, 8, and 10 years old. She was timid when she first arrived and needed a few days to acclimate to a new home environment. FOSTER MOM UPDATE - 3/19/24 Maple has been in her foster home for two weeks now, so we checked in with her foster mom, Ashley, for an update: “Maple is doing well. She is best buddies with our dog, Shadow. They chase each other all over the backyard, and she loves to run and chase the kids around the yard as well. Her little personality is coming out more each day. I would describe her as moderately active. She has her moments of zoomies and wants to run and play, but she also is good to hang out on the couch while we work at home. She is housetrained but needs to be let out first thing in the morning. We make sure she has regular potty breaks throughout the day as she’s still a young pup. She is also crate-trained and goes in her crate when we leave the house. We’ve been practicing leash walks and she’s gaining confidence on leash. She does best with a harness as she tends to pull and choke herself with a regular collar. She does not like to go potty while on a leash so it would be helpful for her to have a fenced-in yard. She loves the freedom of the fenced yard and really enjoys exploring. She’s learned her name and has started coming when called from the backyard! She is shy at first but warms up pretty quickly, and has done with visitors who come to our house. She’s a nice combination of connected with some independence mixed in. She likes to snuggle and wants to be with people, but also wants to have her own space. She loves our kids and is a great family dog. I think she would be best with kids at least 5 and older. She gets scared by the loud noises of the younger toddler we have had her around. I think she will do best in a home with another dog. She needs a playmate to run zoomies with and get her energy out. She’s very adolescent-like and loves to chew, so toys are a must. Maple is spunky and fun and we really enjoy fostering her.” ******* Maple is a fun, sweet girl who will make a great companion and playmate for your pups and kids. She would love a pup playmate in her home and kids are welcome too. Apply today!
