Copper is a 6-year-old tricolor beagle boy, about 30 lbs. He can be a handful, so be prepared to give him some training! He may need a behaviorist: he can sometimes feel threatened when he is resting in the home. His old home said that he is not an inside dog- he would do best with a big place to run, like a farm or ranch.  He may also like having a job. He loves to play with balls and also with other dogs, though he is selective about which dog he likes. He prefers beagles  He doesn't deal with change well- the sudden move to a new home may give him separation anxiety, so his new family should be prepared to ease him into their routine. He is house-trained, but will have to relearn the rules of the house. *Recommended for an all adult home, or with older teens. He can be dominate with girls and some small women- though he has always been gentle with our disabled volunteer, who is a very small woman. In general, he is a good boy who wants affection- he just needs someone who will be willing to work with his anxieties and help him feel comfortable!  He's neutered, has a chip, and all his shots.  WATCH HIS SWELL VIDEO - PLAYING WITH A GROUP! 1/11/25 update on behavior.  He has dramatically improved.  Allowed pretty vigorous vetting - came out of his kennel run - walked on leash.  Out of abundance of caution, we are still recommending adults, dog savvy folks.  Potential Dad is single man who works from home and has been loved by beagles in the past.  Paws crossed.
