His name says it all: Rolly Polly is a chunky little 6 week old Beagle mix who enjoys attention like it’s going out of style. He can’t get enough! And when he’s done getting his love from his fosters he sets off to explore the house, looking for adventure. When his busy day is done, he settles down for a nap, usually on top of siblings, despite his size, and rests up for another fun-filled day.

Rolly Polly doesn’t know it, but he’s a very lucky guy. Sadly, he is another pup in a litter that has been discarded because uncaring humans don’t bother to spay and neuter. But he was saved by angel fosters and is now happily awaiting the arrival of his forever family. Through no fault of their own, dogs in the south are left by the road to make it on their own, over and over again.  Polly and his siblings are victims of being born in a place where there are many dogs and no solutions. His story is heartfelt, he was found by a stranger who could not walk away. This chain of hero’s have a network in the south and each of them has a small part that helps these extraordinary dogs to safety. The remarkable people who make rescue achievable for Rolly Polly and his siblings even though she has dogs of her own. These hero’s in the south can’t ever envision walking away because a rescuer’s spirit is pure and giving. Puppies come into this world with a clean slate and under his southern fosters loving care, life is full of play, good food, afternoon naps in the sun and kisses daily from his rescuer that examines every spot on him.

True to the breed, Polly loves being around people and enjoys making new friends. He has an incredible personality, is well socialized, playful, friendly, and lots of fun to be around. He wants to be with humans and be your best friend; he is honestly going to be a loyal companion that will love you unconditionally for life. He is the “let’s go to the park to play Frisbee” kind of dog! He is ready to go, so jump on board this puppy train, you will definitely have a blast together!

Will you be the lucky ones to welcome him into your home?  Don’t wait or hesitate any further; take him away for a lifetime of friendship, fun, and adventure!  He can’t wait to start sharing his love with her new family!

ABOUT THE BREED
Beagles are always at the top of the list for family-friendly dogs! They are bursting with energy, great with children because of their smaller size, and always willing to play. Extremely good-natured, they have above-average endurance and make great running dogs for casual runners. They also have a unique individual design making them easy to identify. Beagles come in the classic tricolor markings of white/lemon with patches of black and light brown. They can also be found in just two colors of tan and white. Remember Snoopy … yes a Beagle!

CHILDREN
Beagles are happy, gentle, energetic dogs that fit in well with any family. They love to feel like “part of the group,” needing an ample amount of attention and playtime. They also love children, and vice versa, proving to be vigorous but gentle playmates.

PERSONALITY
Fun loving and neither aggressive nor shy, Beagles have a mild disposition making them great companions. In the 1980’s a study was done that gave Beagles the highest excitability rating amongst all dog breeds. Always lively and wagging its tail, small children will instantly love any Beagle puppy that is brought home. Because they are hounds that love to hunt, they follow their nose, which can be a distraction and are bred to move in packs. This can give rise to howling or baying. It is said that Beagles make great companions to cats and they two get along well. –

PET COMPATIBILITY
Beagles are bursting with bravery and stamina they are all happy wagging tails—can be a great source of fun and activity. Protective of their environments without being aggressive with strangers, Beagles will bark if a suspicious person approaches the house, making them an excellent guard dog.

ACTIVITY REQUIREMENTS
Known to be among the friendliest of the hound breeds. The best qualities in the Beagle are its fondness for exploring the outdoors and its enthusiasm for trailing. This independent is an incredibly tolerant, calm and adventurously playful dog, the Beagle also makes a perfect pet for families with children.

How can you determine the adult size of a puppy? A young puppy is tiny and cute – everyone loves puppies! But will the puppy be suited to your environment? How much exercise will be required for a full grown dog? Will the puppy be a suitable pet for children? The breed of the puppy will determine the answers to these questions.

[av_textblock size=’14’ font_color=” color=”]

  • Always teach children how to approach and touch dogs
  • Always supervise any interactions between dogs and young children to prevent any biting or ear or tail pulling on the part of either party.
  • Teach your child never to approach any dog while he’s eating or sleeping or to try to take the dog’s food away. No dog, no matter how friendly, should ever be left unsupervised with a child.
  • Children need to be taught how to approach and touch dogs, and always supervise any interactions between dogs and young children.
  • No dog should ever be left unsupervised with a child because often-young children don’t understand that a cute little dog, or any dog, might not want “love and kisses.”
  • Never let young children pick up a puppy or small dog. Instead, make them sit on the floor with the dog in their lap. Pay attention to the dog’s body language, and put him safely in his crate if he appears to be unhappy or uncomfortable with the child’s attention.
  • Always teach children how to approach and touch dogs, and always supervise any interactions between dogs.
  • Teach your child never to approach any dog while he’s eating or sleeping or to try to take the dog’s food away. No dog should ever be left unsupervised with a child.
  • Be prepared dogs will protect themselves

  • THIS IS YOUR JOB, NOT THE DOG

IMPORTANT POINTS ABOUT PACK LEADERS
It is a natural instinct for a dog to have an order in its pack, therefore, the only way your relationship with your dog can be a complete success you must be the pack leader:

  • When we humans live with dogs,we become their pack
  • The entire pack cooperates under asingle leader
  • Lines are clearly defined andrules are set
  • Dogs communicateshis displeasure with growling and eventually biting
  • Humans MUST be higherup in the order than the dog.
  • The humans must be the onesmaking the decisions, not the dogs.

HOUSETRAINING
Schedule Feeding Time – Find your dog’s schedule so that you can work with that

  • Feed your dog on a regular schedule time, always within a half hour of the time

Schedule Water – Help your dog bee successful

  • Keep a schedule for water, however, you should design a schedule that fits you
  • Remove the water dish after the first feeding in the morning
  • After the night feeding, leave water dish for two hours, then take it up
  • Before your last walk for the night, put the water dish down about an hour before
  • Then walk your dog 45 minutes after he has had water. There will might be days where that might be an exception for water.

 Schedule Walking Time – Find your dog’s schedule, then gently move it to your schedule.

  • Start by taking the dog out every two hours for two days, if he goes every two hours,
  • Then take him out every three hours, for two days,
  • Until you reach the time frame you need – every six hours—eight hours etc

One accident in the house, there is a urine smell that the dog detects and his instinct to continue mark where he smells urine. This is how wild dogs let other dogs know that this territory is taken and for dogs not in the pack to go elsewhere. If your dog has an accident in the house, spray the area with 3 parts vinegar and 1 part water, brush with a soft brush, put a towel on top to absorb the liquid, then take it outside where you want him to go, take it out of the bag and put it on the ground, praise your dog when he goes outside.

PLEASE TAKE A MINUTE TO CHECK OUT THE SECTION BELOW

RDVG wants to provide you with as much information as we can because some of our mix breeds you might not be familiar with. The below section on “About the Breed” offers information on some of the Breed Characteristics, Children & Pets, Behavior and Personality, Temperament and more.

It is important to point out that in addition to the breed, there is an enormous variety in the way a dog acts and reacts to the world around him. In the end, your dog’s preferences and personality are as individual as you are–and if you can accept that– then you’re bound to enjoy each other.

Children & Pets

Animal Behavior Guidelines

Many children, especially very young ones, do not realize that pets are living animals and not toys. Failing to teach a child how to handle pets properly can result in suffering on the part of the pet and, in some cases, injury to the child. Taking introductions slowly will allow you to introduce family dogs and your children safely

Each stage of Puppy Growth and development is fascinating; by the time it reaches its first birthday a puppy is considered a mature, adult dog. Puppy Growth rate is fast compared to humans, just compare a puppy of 8 weeks to a baby of the same age.
