ApolloUPDATED PHOTOS 9/8/2026! Hi! My name is Apollo! I'm a 3-year old male tricolor beagle. I'm a happy, independent little whippersnapper! I've got tons of energy! I can easily climb a chain link fence & get over it. So if I go to a home with a fenced yard, it needs to be something I can't climb over - or go under! I'm learning how to walk on a leash at Nittany Beagle Rescue. I think I'll catch on pretty quick! I've been around children who are 7 and 11 years old now & I'm good with them. I'm dominant with other dogs. I would be happiest if I was the only dog! I would just LOVE the one-on-one attention with my people! Nittany Beagle Rescue isn't sure how I would be with cats. Of course, I need to be in a securely fenced in yard or on-leash at all times when outside since I'll take off - as will most beagles! :) And I can be pretty vocal when I want to be LOL I will need work on housetraining & house manners since that will be new to me! But Nittany Beagle Rescue can provide some guidance on housetraining an adult dog. So I just need a loving, patient person to give me a forever home! I should be crate trained since I'm used to traveling in a crate. I'm up-to-date on vaccines & neutered! So I'm ready for my forever home! I weigh about 20 lbs. - but I could gain a couple of lbs. Please think about making me part of your family! Go to my POetFibder page to see more photos of me! https://www.petfinder.com/dog/apollo-2d71e543-1694-4ff8-a461-e14bad943c2f/pa/west-decatur/nittany-beagle-rescue-pa98/details/ Kennel License #4068 |

BenjiUPDATED 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 |

BennyHi! My name is Benny & I'm a super sweet male tricolor beagle! I'm quite the character! I'm outgoing & friendly! I also love to cuddle! I love to play with toys - especially squeaky toys! I'll play fetch with them! Boy, do I love toys! I'm middle-aged, which is a great age for a beagle! I came to Nittany Beagle Rescue from a shelter. I was in pretty bad shape when I went into the shelter - my snout was full of porcupine quills. But I'm doing better now. It's possible I've always lived outdoors & so my new family will probably need to work on housetraining & house manners with me. Nittany Beagle Rescue can give you lots of suggestions & advice for that. I'm up-to-date on vaccines & I'll be neutered before I'm adopted. Please think about making me part of your family! I'm so ready to be loved & have a home of my own! I weigh about 27 lbs. Go to my PetFinder page & check out my photos & video! https://www.petfinder.com/dog/benny-2daf06a8-fb00-4064-9524-e1012d70641e/pa/west-decatur/nittany-beagle-rescue-pa98/details/ Kennel License #4068 |

BentleyUPDATED 06/3/2026 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. But you just have to firmly tell me to go to my place. In the past, I've tried to block the path & nip/bite at the person leaving. But I'm not doing that in my current foster home. The structure of my current foster home works well for me. I live with 1 person (a woman) & 2 other dogs. So it's a very quiet low-key home. I need that - some place quiet & not much activity. I really need a patient person who can work with me, & has good dog skills. I would do best in home with one person who is home all or most of the time - but if you have to go to work, I understand. I can handle it. 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 & SmokeyUPDATED 4/17/2026 Hi! We're Buford & Smokey! We're 12-13 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've lost a lot of weight since coming into NBR! Buford weighs about 50 lbs & Smokey weighs about 65 lbs. We're not overweight, though! We're just bigger boned! :) We eat turkey & venison (beef & chicken dog food don't really agree with us). We both take apoquel for allergies. A home without other dogs would be best since Buford can be a little bossy with other dogs. Please think about making us part of your family! We really need a home & we are such good boys! Go to our 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 |

DollyUPDATED 6/12/2026 Hi! My name is Dolly! I'm a female fox terrier mix puppy! My dad is supposed to be a beagle - but who knows! The vet thinks I was born on 12/18/2025. I weighed 31.5 pounds on June 12, 2026. So I'll probably grow up to a healthy weight of 35 pounds. I'm a very sweet & cuddly girl, & I'm good with the other dogs in my foster home! I can be a little shy at first but it doesn't take long for me to make friends! I love to play in water! I'm working on housetraining & making great progress! I'm up-to-date on vaccines & I will be spayed before I'm adopted. I'm so anxious to find my forever home! Are you it?? 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/dolly-5a6f32c3-e4b6-4872-a87b-280c83e3bdb7/pa/west-decatur/nittany-beagle-rescue-pa98/details/ PA Kennel License #4068 |

HankUPDATED 8/1/2026 Hank is currently not available for adoption. NBR will continue to work with him to help him become more secure before placing him in an adoptive home. If you would like to track Hank's progress, we will update his description with periodic Progress Reports! Hank was found and was trapped after 1 month on the run! He is back in his NBR foster home. Hi! My name is Hank! I'm about 3 years old. A local shelter brought me up from a shelter in West Virginia where I was going to be euthanized. I'm fantastic with dogs! I love to be around dogs. But I'm a very timid guy with people. I used to be afraid to be touched. The folks at the shelter thought that I had been abused. I used to be really afraid of leashes. (The folks at the shelter thought I had been beaten with a leash). Anyways, the shelter transferred me to Nittany Beagle Rescue. So here I am! The folks at NBR are working with me to become less timid and afraid. I'm really making great progress! I'm in a foster home now - new photos are coming soon! I need a home where the people can work with me slowly and gently. I would probably do best in a quiet, low-key home. A home with another dog would be best. The other dog will make me feel secure. I will run away if scared, and so precautions are needed to make sure I don't run out the door, or slip my collar. Walking me with 2 leashes on 2 collars is best for quite some time. A home with a securely fenced yard is desirable. It is important there not be any gaps in the fence or under the fence. Most of all, I need a person who has experience with dogs like me. If you were following me on social media while I was lost, you know I am terrified of people & will not come near a person, even if I know them. I am working on housetraining and house manners in my foster home. I weigh about 30 lbs. I may sound like a lot, but I am so worth it! Please think about making me part of your family! Go to my PetFinder page & you can see more photos & a video. My photo of me in the crate was me on my 1st day with NBR. I was so frightened! But you can see how far I've come in my other photos! And check out my happy hop in my video! https://www.petfinder.com/dog/hank-0cbfe13b-535d-4d51-9b10-1024f23b153f/pa/west-decatur/nittany-beagle-rescue-pa98/details/ Kennel License #4068 |

JessieUPDATED 8/12/2026 Hi! My name is Jessie! I'm a 5-year old male tricolor beagle! I'm a sweet, easy-going guy! I love to sniff in the backyard. I used to be chained to an old steel drum lying on it's side with the bottom cut out. That's where I went when the weather was bad. But then I went to Nittany Beagle Rescue. I'm in a foster home now, & I LOVE it! I'm still timid, but I'm making progress! This is still pretty new to me! I'm timid of bigger men - I bark at them. Although I do like my foster dad! He's the best! I like to collect things! LOL Rugs, blankets, shoes, stuffed toys - whatever suits my fancy! I'll take it to a space & drop it - or but it in my crate! My foster mom says I'm hilarious! I like to play! I like my foster mom to throw the ball so I can go get it. I like to run around, especially in the morning. So I'm a morning dog! I've been around my foster mom's 2-year old grandchild & I'm excellent with her! We follow each other around the house. I love my crate. The door is always open & I go hang out in it. My crate has a big , fluffy dog bed in it & I really like it! I laid on the couch for the 1st time on Aug. 6th! I really liked it! :) When no one is home, I need to be crated or else I get into stuff. I'm nearly housetrained, but it's best to crate me overnight since I might mark. As I get used to living in a home, my foster mom thinks it won't be necessary to crate me overnight. I would love a fenced in yard! I love to lounge on the outdoor furniture. I get along great with other dogs. But I don't like it when the other dogs are loud. I'll go into another room when they are all barking. But I don't mind it when children are loud! I'm totally OK with that! I'm a very low maintenance type of dog! I walk well on a leash! And I ride great in a car! I just lay on the back seat. Although I do like to roll in things! LOL Please think about making me part of your family! I'm up-to-date on vaccines & neutered. So I'm ready for my forever home! Please think about making me part of your family! Go to my PetFinder page to see more photos & my video! https://www.petfinder.com/dog/jessie-030ea2a6-1d78-4f1c-aad9-bfcb984e10ac/pa/west-decatur/nittany-beagle-rescue-pa98/details/ Kennel License #4068 |

Leo & BellaHi! We're Leo & Bella! We a bonded pair of 10 year old beagles. We're a very sweet! We need a new home because our original owners couldn't keep us any longer & gave us to a family to keep us temporarily. So we're looking for our forever home! We're good with other dogs & cats! We're around a 6-year old and 8-year old children, plus a newborn in our temporary home. We do great with all of them! Bella is a happy girl while Leo tends to be quiet. We like hanging out outside on nice days! We're housetrained. Bella will stare & pant when she needs to go outside, & Leo will stare & bark when he needs to go out. We do like to hang out on comfy furniture. We sleep in a dog bed at the foot of the bed (on the floor) at night. We enjoy going for car rides! Bella is spayed & Leo will be neutered before they are adopted. We do need a home together. We're up-to-date on vaccines. We weigh about 40 lbs. each. And so we are looking for someone who wants to love us & make us part of their family forever! Please think about bringing us into your home! Go to out PetFinder page to see more photos of each of us! Leo is the one with the browner face. https://www.petfinder.com/dog/leo-bella-2ca3a450-c5d1-40ee-a491-13e6e09597c0/pa/west-decatur/nittany-beagle-rescue-pa98/details/ Kennel License #4068 |

MiloHi! My name is Milo! I'm a tricolor male beagle. I will be 3 years old on 9/18! So I'm a young guy full of energy! I love people & I love to play! I need a new home because my people are older & not able to care for me physically anymore. I'm a happy, affectionate boy! I'm also very energetic - as most young beagles are! I like to play tug-of-war & I like to chew on things! I like to hang out on the furniture with my people & snuggle with them! In terms of housetraining, I used to be on a schedule & was housetrained for the most part. But over the past year, my people weren't able to get me outside on a regular basis. And so they were using puppy pads. But Nittany Beagle Rescue thinks my new forever home will be able to get me back on track with housetraining fairly quickly. I'm crate trained. I'm used to being crated overnight & when no one was home. When you tell me to go to my bed, & I will go in my crate! I've been around children as young as 6 years & I'm good with them, although I will jump on them. I will run out the door, so I need a home where I can't do that. I've been around other dogs when they came to visit & I like to play with them! :) I've never been around cats. I weighted about 42 lbs. on my recent visit to the vet. I'm a little chunky & could lose a few pounds. I'm a super sweet, funny loving guy & I'm anxious to find my forever home! Are you it?? I'm up-to-date on vaccines & will be neutered before I'm adopted. Please think about making me part of your family! My photo is coming soon! Kennel License #4068 |

MiltonUPDATED 9/8/2026 Hi! My name is Milton! I'm an adorable male beagle mix! I'm a young guy, probably only about 2 years old. Which means I have lots of energy! I just love to be petted & cuddled! I'm just so sweet & I absolutely love people! I would like to melt into my person! I was at a shelter for awhile & so the shelter transferred me to Nittany Beagle Rescue. It's possible I lived in a home before & so it's possible I'm already housetrained or partially housetrained. I'm already vaccinated & will be neutered before I'm adopted. I weigh about 33 lbs. Would you think about making me part of your family? I'm so sad not having a family of my own! Check out more photos of me & my video on my PetFinder page! https://www.petfinder.com/dog/milton-092e87e6-99dd-4c9a-a321-3353e27c57b5/pa/west-decatur/nittany-beagle-rescue-pa98/details/ Kennel License #4068 |

MochiHi! 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!

ShermanUPDATED 7/26/2026 Hi! My name is Sherman! I'm a male fox terrier mix puppy! My mom is a fox terrier. My dad is supposed to be a beagle - but who knows! The vet thinks I was born on 12/18/2025. I weighed 35 pounds on July 23, 2026. So I'm probably at my healthy adult weight now. I'm a very sweet & cuddly boy! I'm a busy boy who loves to play! My foster mom says I'm as goofy as can be! :) I love to play in water! Check out my video of me playing in water! I adore other dogs! I will need to go to a home with at least one other dog. The other dog provides me with a sense of security. I'm working on housetraining in my foster home & making great progress! I'm up-to-date on vaccines & neutered.

SpikeUPDATED 9/12/2026! Hi! My name is Spike & I'm a super sweet male tricolor beagle! I'm quite the character! I'm outgoing & friendly! I also love to cuddle & snuggle! I'm middle-aged, which is a great age for a beagle! I came to Nittany Beagle Rescue from a shelter. I was in pretty bad shape when I went into the shelter - my snout was full of porcupine quills. That's how I got my name! LOL But I'm doing much better now. I am neutered & am ready to go to my forever home! Until recently, I've probably always lived outdoors in a pen. But I'm in a foster home now. And I LOVE being with people, & snuggling on the couch! I'm just so happy! I've had a couple of zoomies today (9/12/26)! But I'm also very calm! I share my food and toys with my foster home's dog. I walk well on a leash, too! I've discovered that I don't like dry kibble by itself anymore; I really want some wet food mixed in! :) I do well in a crate. Sometimes I'll cry a little in the crate, but then settle down quickly. Right now, I don't like being left alone - but everything is so new to me. My people will just need to work with me on that. I'll need more work on housetraining. But Nittany Beagle Rescue can give you suggestions & advice for that. Please think about making me part of your family! I'm so ready to be loved & have a home of my own! I weigh about 24 lbs. Go to my PetFinder page to see more photos of me & my video! https://www.petfinder.com/dog/spike-b24c1be5-7283-4131-ae9f-8e10acf20789/pa/west-decatur/nittany-beagle-rescue-pa98/details/ Kennel License #4068 |

SylvesterUPDATED 9/2/2026 Hi! My name is Sylvester! I'm a 3-year old male tricolor beagle. I'm an affectionate little guy! I'm the sweetest & coolest little thing! I used to live outside in a pen, but now I'm in a foster home & I'm LOVING it! I'm very bashful and shy, but I love to see & meet people, and cats, & horses with buggies! I'm very alert - I always know what's going on! I'll let my people know if something important is happening, like the neighbors leaving to go out. But I'm very quiet about it! LOL I'm working on housetraining in my foster home. They are teaching me to go to the door & ring a bell when I need to go outside. I'm making progress! Yeah! I'm crate trained. I've been around children who are 7 and 11 years old now & I'm good with them. I'm good with other dogs. I tend to be submissive with other dogs - I just want to get along! But I don't like to be bullied by other dogs. I'm full of energy! I will climb a chain link fence & get over it. So if I go to a home with a fenced yard, it needs to be something I can't climb over - or go under! I need to be in a securely fenced in yard or on-leash at all times when outside since I'll take off - as will most beagles! :) I'm used to traveling in a crate & I travel quite well. I'm up-to-date on vaccines & neutered! I just need a loving, patient person/family to give me a forever home! I weigh about 19 lbs. - but I could gain a couple of lbs. Please think about making me part of your family! Check out more photos of me on my PetFinder page! https://www.petfinder.com/dog/sylvester-7d1980b1-761a-4ce6-a2cc-cde3c58f6316/pa/west-decatur/nittany-beagle-rescue-pa98/details/ Kennel License #4068 |

WalterUPDATED 9/2/2026 Hi! My name is Walter! I'm a very sweet 3.5 year old male beagle. I like to hang out on the couch with my people! Nittany Beagle Rescue thinks I prefer to lay beside my people, rather than be on their lap. I'm not particularly playful. So I would be very happy with a laid back home! I've lived with other dogs & I'm good with them - although I'm not crazy about energetic dogs. I prefer everyone be sort of laid back. :) I need a home where the people have some dog skills. I'm housetrained! I go to the door when I need to go outside. NBR doesn't know how I would be in a crate. I ride great in a car! Just secure me to the back seat, & I will ride with my feet on the console looking out the window! You have to be careful with me though - I will run out the door if a get a chance. I was already hit by a car once (I didn't get hurt, thankfully!) - but that means I probably don't have any car or road sense. And so I need a home where I can't get out unless I'm walked out on a leash or go into a securely fenced yard. Sometimes I'm possessive of my food, & so my people need to understand & respect that. I'm up-to-date on vaccines & will be neutered before I'm adopted. I weigh about 27 lbs & the vet said that that is a good weight for me. I can't wait to find my forever home! Are you it?? Please think about making me part of your family!
