1. Copper

UPDATED 5/14/2023 Hi! My name is Copper! I'm a 2.5 year old male lemon & white beagle. I'm quite active, which is normal for a young guy like me! I'm also quite loving & so very sweet! I love to play tug-of-war & fetch! I'm already neutered and up-to-date on vaccines. I'm good with other dogs, but I don't care much for cats. Also I don't really care for play groups with lots of dogs. I'm staying where there are a lot of dogs right now, & I would really like to decompress from all of that. So a home with no other dogs, or maybe 1 or 2 very calm ones would be fine. While I was raised with young children, I'm very rambunctious with them, (and not always well-behaved). So I need a home with older children (8 years or older) or no children. I have a brother named Ammo, who is also available for adoption. Ammo & I love each other, but we really would be fine if we are separated. I'm so anxious to find another home - either a temporary foster home or a forever home! I'm housetrained and crate trained, although I still need a little additional work on housetraining. I'm used to going outside every 2-3 hours & will whine when I need to go outside. I'm a young dog, & so I need a lot of exercise, & opportunities to run & play every day! I don't particularly enjoy car rides. I still need some training not to jump on people. I need to be in a securely fenced-in yard or on-leash at all times when outside. Please think about bringing me home!!!

 

Ammo

Hi! My name is Ammo! I'm a 2.5 year old male lemon & white beagle. I'm quite active, which is normal for a young guy like me! I'm also quite loving & so very sweet! I love to play tug-of-war & fetch! I'm already neutered and up-to-date on vaccines. I'm good with other dogs, but I don't care much for cats. Also I don't really care for play groups with lots of dogs - so a home with 1 or 2 other dogs would be best. While I was raised with young children, I'm very rambunctious with them, (and not always well-behaved). So I need a home with older children (8 years or older) or no children. I have a brother named Copper, who is also available for adoption. Copper & I love each other, but we really would be fine if we are separated. However, if we are separated, then we need to go to a home with another dog or two to make sure I have a dog friend to hang with. At the same time, Copper & I have a healthy sibling bond, and so it's fine that we be placed together in the same home. But if we're placed together in the same home, then our adopter would have to have good dog skills since 2 of us is quite the handful! No matter what, it's important that each of us go to a home where we blossom, are happy, and well-adjusted members of the family! I'm housetrained and crate trained, although I still need a little additional work on housetraining. I'm used to going outside every 2-3 hours & will whine when I need to go outside. I'm a young dog, & so I need a lot of exercise, & opportunities to run & play every day! I don't particularly enjoy car rides. I still need some training not to jump on people. I need to be in a securely fenced-in yard or on-leash at all times when outside. Click on my page to see a photo of both of us together!

 

Austin

Hi! My name is Austin! But you can call me Auggie! AUSTIN is currently LOST. (He ran out the door of his home). He was lost in the general area of McDonald Rd. & Donnertown Rd. near Old US 220 & PA-164E outside of Duncansville, PA. If seen, please contact us at 814-883-6062. Austin is a very sweet 12-year old male beagle. His person passed away, & now he needs a new home. He just wants to be loved. He loves pets! He's a happy, sociable fellow! He's also easygoing. He likes to play ball! He's good with other dogs & cats. Austin is housetrained, crate trained & neutered. He just needs a new home who will love & take care of him in his golden years! He doesn't really respond well to commands - but that could be because he's a typical beagle or maybe he's hard of hearing. Please think about giving Austin a home! ADOPTION PENDING.

 

Blaze

UPDATED 4/30/23 Hi! I'm Blaze! I'm a tricolor male beagle! I'm outgoing & very affectionate! I need a new home because my owner got sick & was no longer able to keep me. I lived outside in a pen with another dog. I'm in a foster home now & I'm making great progress with housetraining! I'm also crate trained. I love to cuddle & snuggle with my person! I'm such a sweetheart! I get along great with other dogs & cats. I'm timid around children, though. I LOVE to go for walks! I'm not much of a sniffer on a walk, unless I get on a scent. Then I'm all about following the scent! I'm already neutered & up-to-date on vaccines. Now I just need my forever home! Are you it? I'm about 9 years old. Please think about making me part of your family! I'm so anxious to find a home!

Buddha

UPDATED BIO! Hi! My name is Buddha & I'm a very friendly 8-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/

 

Chief

UPDATED 4/20/23 Hi! I'm Chief! I'm a lemon & white male beagle, about 10 years old - although I act much younger! I'm super sweet! I'm also a very timid dog. I'm frightened of people who are tall (I bark at them). Even if they make up to me, I forget that I know them a little bit later & start barking at them again. So I need a home where no one is tall or on the large size. I can climb a chain link fence, & so I'll need to be on-leash when outside, or the fencing needs to be the type you can't climb. But I'm really energetic, so I need lots of walks if I don't have a securely fenced-in yard. I need a new home because my owner got sick & was no longer able to keep me. I lived outside in a pen with other dogs. I'm in a foster home now. I'm doing really well with housetraining. They have a fenced in yard with a doggie door, & so I go outside when I need to. However, if I was in a home without a doggie door, then my people would need to learn my signs for when I need to go outside. I love jumping up on things - I can really jump quite well. I love to chew on squeaky toys. Also, I like to sleep in bed with my foster mom - I like to cuddle next to her head. I'm very good with the other dogs in my foster home. I can be crated for 4 or 5 hours, but will pee in the crate if I'm in the crate longer than that. I am already neutered & up-to-date on vaccines!

Ella Bella

Hi! My name is Ella Bella! I'm an adorable 10-month female beagle. I weigh about 26 lbs., but I should probably lose a pound. I've got lots of puppy in me! I want to play! I love tug-of-war & ball! I really love attention! I'm at that age where I still do some puppy biting, so I'm really too much for a home with young children. But I'm fine with older children, like 10 years & older. I've lived with cats & I do really well with them. In fact in my prior home, I would play with the cats who agreed to play with me! I haven't been around dogs much. When I've been around them, I'm afraid of them - but I'm not aggressive with them at all. I'm a very loving girl! I love to cuddle with my person on the couch. At night, I'm used to sleeping in my crate. I'm still working on housetraining, but I am crate trained. I like to dig holes when I'm in the back yard. So if my new home has a fenced in yard, it will need to be secure at the bottom of the fence so I don't dig out. I'm already spayed & up-to-date on vaccines. Now I'm just waiting for my forever home to find me! Are you it? Go to my PetFinder page to see more photos of me! https://www.petfinder.com/dog/ella-bella-64096248/pa/west-decatur/nittany-beagle-rescue-pa98/

 

Ellie

Hi! My name is Ellie & I'm a beautiful 2-year old female beagle mix. I'm an active & sociable dog! I have tons of energy, so I need a home who can make sure I get the play & exercise I need. I love to play tag! I'm also a happy girl & very sociable! I'm very loving & affectionate. I like to hang out on the couch with my people, & I sleep in bed with them at night. I've lived with children as young as 2 years old, & I'm very good with them! I ride really well in a car! I'm housetrained! I'm used to going outside every 2-3 hours. I'll stand by the door when I need to go out. I'm also crate trained, but I may pee in the crate if I'm in the crate for 6 hours or more. I've been around other dogs, & I like to play with them! But I don't like to be around high energy dogs - they scare me. I need a new home because my people were evicted & couldn't find a place that allowed dogs. I'm up-to-date on vaccines & will be spayed before I'm adopted. I'm a little thing! I weigh about 20 lbs. Are you the right home for me? If so, please think about making me part of your family! More photos of me are on my PetFinder page: https://www.petfinder.com/dog/ellie-64100189/pa/west-decatur/nittany-beagle-rescue-pa98/ ADOPTION PENDING.

 

Frankie

Hi! My name is Frankie & I'm a super friendly 1-2 year old male tricolor beagle! I'm lived with cats & young children, & I'm great with them! I lived with my brother Riggs, who is also available for adoption. We do not need to be placed together. However, if we go to different homes, then we need a home with another dog who will be a buddy to me. I love to hang out on the couch with my person! I'm still at that chewing stage, so I need to be directed to toys & chew bones that are OK for me to chew on. I'll stare at the door when I need to go outside. But I still need some work on housetraining. My prior person would put me on a tie-out for 20-25 minutes or take me for occasional walks. But that wasn't enough for a young energetic guy like me! I need to go for long walks or hikes, and/or have lots of time to run around a securely fenced in back yard. I'm crate trained, & I'm used to spending the night in the crate. I'm a little guy - I only weigh about 20 lbs. I'm up-to-date on vaccines & will be neutered before I'm adopted. Please think about making me part of your family!

Gallagher

UPDATED 1/6/2023 Hi! I'm Gallagher, a 6-year old male coonhound mix, & I weigh about 85 lbs. But don't let my size fool you! I'm a gentle giant! I'm an affectionate fellow & love to be with my people! I'm a really great dog!! I'm in a foster home without a fenced yard, & I'm doing well! I could be a lead dog for a sled team. LOL But I'm improved immensely with leash walking in my foster home. I have good demeanor and a willingness to learn. I will try to chase a car, so you have to be alert when you're taking me for a walk on-leash. I would also be happy to have a fenced in yard. I play well with other dogs, although I'm not a fan of small dogs, but I am trying! I've been around children of all ages. I'm pretty curious about children, and I'm well-behaved with them. I get so excited when company comes, & sometimes I forget my manners. But I'm working on staying on all 4 paws with my foster home. I follow the house rules when my foster family isn't home, so no crating is needed. I love treats and outside time! I don't really like traveling - it makes me car sick if all the windows are closed. But if you open a window, I do much better. I've lived with a guinea pig & was fine with him. I'm protective of my home & yard, but I'm OK if you let strangers come into the house. I'm already neutered & up-to-date on vaccines. I'm looking for my forever home! Are you it! I sure hope so!

Jack

UPDATED 4/12/23 Hi! My name is Jack & I'm a super sweet 11-month old corgi/basset/terrier mix. I really needed a place to go, so Nittany Beagle Rescue made me an honorary beagle! I had a pretty rough life before I came into Nittany Beagle Rescue. Aren't I adorable! I'm a really friendly, goofy guy! And I love to give kisses! I'm really energetic, but after a good walk or some play time, I calm down. I'm also quite strong. I'm housetrained for the most part, although I may mark or have an accident when I first go into my new home. I'm very bright & I'm a fast learner. I've lived with young children, but because of my strength & energy, I'll be placed in a home where the children are big enough that I won't knock them down. I love to chew on big bones! I'm at that adolescent chewing stage, so my new family will want to make sure I have appropriate things to chew on. I would love to sleep in bed with my person at night-I am very affectionate and love to give kisses! I also ride well in a car, although sometimes I will try to get you to pet me or try to sit up front with you. I'm in a foster home now, & I like to play with the other dogs my size. I chase the cats, but my foster home is working on that with me. Jack only weighs 42 lbs. He is already neutered & microchipped. Jack is a pretty quiet guy, & he doesn't bark much. Is Jack right for you - or do you know a good home who would be perfect for Jack? If so, please think about making Jack part of the family! You can see more photos of Jack on his PetFinder page: https://www.petfinder.com/dog/jack-59533292/pa/west-decatur/nittany-beagle-rescue-pa98/

 

Jane

UPDATED 5/5/23 Hi! I'm Jane! I'm a tricolor female beagle! I'm a very sweet girl! I'm quite gentle! I'm pretty shy at first - until I get to know you. And then I'll love so you much! I need a new home because my owner got sick & was no longer able to keep me. I lived outside in a pen with other dogs. I'm in a foster home now, & I'm doing really well. I'm a real hunter & an escape artist! I like to dash out the door! And if there is a way to get out of a fenced yard, I will find it! I'm under 25 lbs., & so I can squeeze through really small spaces. If I have a fenced in yard in my new home, then the fence needs to be buried into the ground, & there not be any gaps at the gates. I'm doing really well with housetraining in my foster home. They have a fenced in yard with a doggie door, & so I go outside when I need to. (To be on the safe side, I wear a GPS collar because I'm an escape artist!) However, if I was in a home without a doggie door, then my people would need to learn my signs for when I need to go outside. I'm a very active girl! According to my GPS collar, I'm in the top 1% in terms of activity among all other dogs in my network! I can be crated for 4 or 5 hours, but will pee in the crate if I'm in the crate longer than that. I am already spayed & up-to-date on vaccines! I'm only about 5-7 years old, so I'm pretty young! 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/jane-59991186/pa/west-decatur/nittany-beagle-rescue-pa98/

 

Koko

Hi! My name is Koko & I'm a very sweet older male beagle. I'm probably about 10-11 years old. I need a new home because my person passed away & his family wasn't able to keep me. My person used to take me on lots of trips & I was a great traveling companion. I just ride loose in the car when traveling. I'm in a temporary foster home now, & I'm doing well. I'm a good boy! I'm affectionate & sociable. I'm also quite easygoing. I like to play tug-of-war, ball & fetch. I've lived with cats & get along well with them. I've been around dogs on my walks, & I'm quite sociable. I like to put my paw another dog's face. I'm just being friendly, although not all dogs like that. When I need to go outside, I'll paw at the door. I'm used to going outside every couple of hours. I'm having some separation anxiety in my foster home, but that could be temporary due to the changes in my life. I'm up-to-date on vaccines & will be neutered before I'm adopted. I'm anxious to find my forever home! Are you it? Please think about making me part of your family!

Luna

Hi! My name is Luna & I'm a very sweet 7-8 year old female tricolor beagle! I'm an active & playful girl! I love to play tug-of-war & rip the stuffing out of stuffed animals! :) I'm quite sociable! I love to be with people! I like to play with other dogs, too! I spend most of the day outside tied to a line, but I would really like a home where I can be with my people more. It would be great if I went on long walks with my person every day! I am a bit of a houdini & I know how to get loose from a line. So I need a home where I'm walked on-leash or in a securely fenced in yard. I'm housetrained & crate trained! When I need to go outside, I'll come to my person & get them to take me to the door. While I've been raised with children & I live with a 9 & 11 year old child, I would do best if I lived only with adults. This is because when I'm sleepy & on the couch, & the kids go by, I'll snap at them. I've never done this to the adults in my home - just the kids. And I've never bitten anyone. I don't really care for cats either - if a cat goes by, I'll bay & chase it. I get anxious on car rides. If you want me to do something, just offer me a treat! I love food! I'm already spayed & will be up-to-date on vaccines before being adopted. Please think about making me part of your family! I can be such a great companion!

Maizie

UPDATED 4/30/23 Hi! My name is Maizie! I'm a super sweet small female tricolor beagle! I'm about 1 year old. I spent the first part of my life in a puppy mill. I lived in a crowded cage with other dogs. But I've been living in a home since August! I was extremely timid and anxious when I first went into a home. The person worked very hard with me & I've made a lot of progress. I'm in foster home with another dog, & I really rely on the other dog for guidance & security. So there has to be at least 1 other dog in my forever home. I'm a very cuddly dog! I need to sit on my person or right next to them on the couch. At night, I sleep in bed with my foster parents between their pillows. I've made a lot of progress on housetraining, but I still need some more work. I get extremely anxious if you put me in a crate. My foster family put me in a crate for about 4 hours once; my crate was next to the crate of of the other dog in the house, & I did well. But my forever family needs to figure out how to keep me safe when they can't keep an eye on me (from doing things that young dogs do, like chew on things they shouldn't). My foster family will put me in a 48-inch high X-Pen (it has to have a top, or else I'll climb out)! I do not like car rides. I get very anxious & I will pee. So I need a home where I get to stay home when my people leave, & who can help me with my timidness and housetraining. A home with mature dog-savvy children (at least 10 years of age) would be great if they wanted to help me blossom! I'm also good with cats! I'm already spayed & up-to-date on vaccines.

Mika

UPDATED 4/30/23 Hi! My name is Mika, & I'm a very sweet 7-ish year old female coonhound mix. I had puppies on Thanksgiving, & they all went to homes. Now I need a home! I'm a little timid when I first meet a stranger, but give me some treats, & I'll be your friend for life! I love dried chicken treats! I'm about 55 lbs. I ride great in a car. Just put me in the back seat, & I'll just enjoy the ride. I'm in a foster home & I'm doing great! I'm housetrained & crate trained. I adore attention from people! I have a fantastic hound bay! I'm not too sure about other dogs & cats. I would LOVE to be the only pet in the house. I would love hanging out on the couch with my people! I will be spayed before I'm adopted. Please think about making me part of your family. To see more photos of me, go to my PetFinder page: https://www.petfinder.com/dog/mika-59739314/pa/west-decatur/nittany-beagle-rescue-pa98/ My name is pronounced Meeka, with a long e.

 

Rigby

Hi! My name is Rigby & I'm a 7 year old male beagle mix! I'm probably mixed with some basset hound. I'm adorable! Most people smile when they see me! I make people happy! I've lived with a 1-1/2 year old child & I was very good with the child. I'm a pretty laid back fellow, although I do have some nervous energy. I like to suck on a blanket when I'm nervous, & I shake during loud sounds like thunderstorms. I'm housetrained. I will go to the door & whine when I need to go outside. I'm not crate trained. I like to sleep on a couch or a dog bed. I weigh about 64 lbs., but I need to go on a diet. You know hounds! We love food! I really like to get on a scent when I'm on a walk. We don't know how I would be with other dogs on a long-term basis. I haven't lived with cats. I'm already up-to-date on vaccines. I will be neutered before I'm adopted. Please think about making me part of your family! See more photos of me on my PetFinder page: https://www.petfinder.com/dog/rigby-63603713/pa/west-decatur/nittany-beagle-rescue-pa98/
