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 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

 

BryAnna

Hi! My name is BryAnna! I'm a 6-month old female beagle. I'm red & white & I'm quite stunning! I'm a very affectionate & loving girl! I'm easygoing also! But I'm also a very young beagle with puppy energy! I used to belong to a hunter, but he didn't want me anymore. I lived in a pen then. I was taken in by a kind person, but she can't keep me. I need a home where I will be loved & the people will be patient with me as I learn about living in a home (housetraining, house manners). I am crate trained. I ride well in a car! I'm up-to-date on vaccines & will be spayed on Tues., 6/30/26. Then I'm ready to move to my forever home! Are you it?? Please think about making me part of your family! I weigh about 27 lbs. Go to my PetFinder page to see more photos of me! https://www.petfinder.com/dog/bry-anna-2575d672-c658-40a5-8cf7-c2fad24304af/pa/west-decatur/nittany-beagle-rescue-pa98/details/ Kennel License #4068

 

Buford & Smokey

UPDATED 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

 

Bunny

UPDATED 7/16/2026 Hi! My name is Bunny! I'm a 2-year old female beagle! Officially, I'm a tricolor beagle, but my coloring is more liver & white. I'm very striking! I'm a very friendly & energetic girl when I'm around women! But I'm very timid & shy around some men & energetic children. So Nittany Beagle Rescue is thinking a home with women, or a calm home with a woman & a man, and only older calm children (12 years & older) would be best for me. I'm great with other dogs. I'm in a temporary foster home now with other dogs & I'm having a blast playing with them! 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 learning about housetraining & house manners in my foster home. I'm doing great! I go outside every couple of hours to the fenced in yard. I haven't gone potty in the house once! I'm ready for the next step - to find my forever home! If you think you're the right home for me, please think about making me part of your family! When Nittany Beagle Rescue learns more about me, they'll post it. I'm up-to-date on vaccines & spayed. 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! https://www.petfinder.com/dog/bunny-1ee26182-3645-4bd1-a207-83984087c3c5/pa/west-decatur/nittany-beagle-rescue-pa98/details/ Kennel License #4068

 

Cher

Hi! My name is Cher! I'm a 2-year old female tricolor beagle! I'm adorable! I'm a little shy at first, but then I warm up. I really want to be loved! I'm great with other dogs. 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 living in a boarding kennel right now, but I'll be spayed on 7/6/2026 & then I'll go to a temporary foster home to recover & learn about housetraining & house manners, & what it's like to live in a home with people! I can't wait to find my forever home, though! Please think about making me part of your family! When Nittany Beagle Rescue learns more about me, they'll post it. I'm up-to-date on vaccines & will be spayed soon. So I'm ready for my forever home then! 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/cher-79f9a47a-cdda-430a-ae08-0b72f42b546a/pa/west-decatur/nittany-beagle-rescue-pa98/details/ Kennel License #4068

 

Chubbs

Hi! My name is Chubbs! I'm a 7-8 year old male beagle mix. I'm a very friendly guy! I was in a shelter for nearly 5 months! But no one wanted to give me a forever home! :( So the shelter asked Nittany Beagle Rescue to take me & here I am! All the volunteers at NBR love me! I love to go for walks & sniff! I also love attention! So I will be a great buddy to hang out on the couch with my person! I used to live with other dogs & I did fine with them. I also lived with cats & children. I ride really well in a car! I used to live in a house, but I may need some refresher work on housetraining since I've been in a shelter so long. I'm up-to-date on vaccines & I will be neutered before I'm adopted. I weigh about 27 lbs. 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/chubbs-2d9bf4a8-9ea8-4f9e-a47f-bc8aee670881/pa/west-decatur/nittany-beagle-rescue-pa98/details/ Kennel License #4068

 

Dolly

UPDATED 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

 

Hank

UPDATED 7/16/2026 LOST! Hank is currently lost in the Lancaster area. Finding Toby is working on getting him safely. He is terrified of people. If you see him, do not approach him. If you follow Hank, he will run away & will move locations, preventing Finding Toby from being able to get him safely. Just crouch down low & observe what he is doing (resting, eating, running). Then please contact NBR & let us know his location & what he is doing. Thank you! 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! From my one photo, you can see I'm walking on a leash now! I am so proud of myself! I'm living in a boarding kennel right now, & I'm doing fine. But I would really like to go to a temporary home or a forever home! 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. I will probably need work on housetraining and house manners. 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! 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! I'm making such fantastic progress! Adoption Pending! Kennel License #4068 ADOPTION PENDING.

 

Jessie

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'm great with other dogs. 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'm learning about housetraining & living in a home with people. I LOVE it! Although, I'm still pretty nervous right now - this is all so new to me! Please think about making me part of your family! When Nittany Beagle Rescue learns more about me, they'll post it. 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!

Jim

Hi! I'm Jim! I'm a male tricolor beagle! I'm so very sweet & I adore people! I'm very affectionate! I'm also quite active & playful! I'm used to having a fenced yard & I love to run around the yard! I also love to hang out on the couch with my people! I'm crate trained. When I go somewhere, I'm usually crated in the car. I can be bossy with other dogs, especially other male dogs. So I would love to be the only one. But I should be ok with another dog who lets me be boss. I've never lived with cats & so Nittany Beagle Rescue doesn't know how I am with cats. I'm 5-6 years old & I weigh about 25 lbs. I can't wait to find my forever home! Are you it? Please think about making me part of your family! I'm up-to-date on vaccines & neutered. Check out more photos of me on my PetFinder page. https://www.petfinder.com/dog/jim-d137192d-d6b3-4a9a-ba64-9383f5784417/pa/west-decatur/nittany-beagle-rescue-pa98/details/ Kennel License #4068

 

Loki

Hi! My name is Loki! I'm a 4-year old white & tan male beagle. I'm adorable! I'm a very sweet & affectionate guy! I'm very loving! I'm great with other dogs! I also lived with children in my prior home. I'm housetrained, although I might mark some the first few days that I'm in a new home. I haven't been in a crate much, but when I was in it, I was very good. I'm already neutered & up-to-date on vaccines! Now I just need my forever home! Are you it?? Please think about making me part of your family!

I'm used to having a fenced yard & I love to run around the yard & chase squirrels! I also love to hang out on the couch with my people! I'm crate trained.

Max

Hi! My name is Max! I'm a 13-year old male tricolor beagle. I just had a vet exam & I'm in great shape! (except for my ears - I had an ear infection, but I'm getting meds for that now!) I need a new home because my family didn't have the resources to care for me any longer. I'm an affectionate & easygoing fellow! I'm also very loving. I've lived with cats & I do great with them! I'm in a temporary foster home with other dogs & I'm getting along with them very well! I like to play tug-of-war & ball! I should be fine in a home with children 8 or older who know how to properly treat a dog. I'm housetrained & crate trained! I'm used to going outside 3 or 4 times a day. I'll bark or whine when I need to go outside. I like my crate. (It's a wire crate). Just leave the door open & I'll go in when I want a little alone time. I also like to sleep in my crate at night. If you say 'In', I'll go in my crate - or throw a couple of biscuits in the crate. I like the biscuits! :) I'm up-to-date on vaccines & neutered. I weigh about 34 lbs., but I could probably loose 1-2 lbs. Please think about giving me a loving & caring forever home to spend my golden years. That's what I really need & want. Go to my PetFinder page to see more photos! https://www.petfinder.com/dog/max-3d9c3dff-8bd4-4a83-b73c-36774d271f35/pa/west-decatur/nittany-beagle-rescue-pa98/details/ 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! Are you it?? Go to my PetFinder page to see more photos of me! https://www.petfinder.com/dog/mochi-girl-73313336/pa/west-decatur/nittany-beagle-rescue-pa98/ PA Kennel License 4068

 

Rue

NEW PHOTOS 6/3/2026 Hi! My name is Rue! I'm a 2.5 year old female mixed breed dog! I've got shepherd & husky & a bunch of other breeds in me! :) I'm a happy dog! I'm very friendly with people & I love attention! 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!

Sherman

UPDATED 6/12/2026 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 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 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 on my PetFinder page! 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 & I will be neutered before I'm adopted. I'm so very anxious to find my forever home! Are you it?? Please think about making me part of your family!

Sport

Hi! My name is Sport! I'm a 2-year old male beagle! Officially, I'm a tricolor beagle, but my coloring is more liver & white. I'm very striking! I'm a very friendly fellow! I'm great with other dogs. 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 living in a boarding kennel right now, so I would love a foster home - or even better yet - a forever home! Please think about making me part of your family! When Nittany Beagle Rescue learns more about me, they'll post it. 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!

Ziva

Hi! My name is Ziva, & I'm a beautiful 3.5 year old female beagle mix! I'm a very energetic girl! I love to play with other dogs! Playing tag is the best! I've lived with children as young as 5 years, but I've been around children even younger than that. I really enjoy playing tag with the children also! I'm a very affectionate & loving girl. But I'm also on the insecure side & I can be quite sensitive. I just really need a family who will show me love and kindness. I'm not great with cats. But I'm great with the other dogs in my foster home. I love to play with them! However, I can be protective of my crate when I'm in it & of my favorite spot when I need to get away from it all - but just with the other animals. I'm always great with people! I'm a beagle & so if I get loose, I'll run off. I'm housetrained. I will go to the door & give a little bark or pace until someone lets me outside. When I was younger, I was crated a lot & so now I'm just crated when absolutely necessary. I'm used to someone usually being home, & so it's hard to say how I would be if someone was out all day for work. I'm used to having a fenced in back yard & I just love it! I will howl at people passing by - after all, I am a beagle! I especially love women! I can be a little dismissive of men. LOL I'm up-to-date on vaccines & spayed. I weigh about 38 lbs. Are you the right home for me? If so, please think about making me part of your family!
