Daisy & Louie Louie – Beagle Welfare Rehoming Profile Meet Louie Louie is a handsome, nine-year-old tri-coloured Beagle boy. Training and Behaviour Louie is housetrained and walks on a harness, although he can pull quite strongly. His owner has been trying to jog alongside him at his pace, which helps to keep the lead a little slacker. He has not attended formal training classes. He is not let off lead. He is not destructive and, although he may take things he shouldn’t, his owner says this can usually be turned into a game and the item can eventually be retrieved. Louie is used to being left for approximately a few hours, He is not particularly accustomed to car journeys but eventually settles and travels calmly. He enjoys digging in the garden, so secure fencing and supervision will be important. People and Children Louie has never shown aggression towards people. Other Dogs Louie lives has previously lived with another beagle, so ideally he would be best living with another dog. Louie’s owner reports that he is generally excited but relatively calm when approaching other dogs on lead. His previous owner used to take him to Beagle meets, where he got on well with other dogs off lead. His current owner has not personally seen him interacting with dogs off lead. Cats Louie’s suitability for living with cats is unknown. He will bark at a cat sitting on the garden fence, but his owner has not provided any further information about how he might behave around cats in the home. Food and Feeding Louie is currently fed Tesco dry food and Tesco wet pouches. His usual routine is to have a bowl of dry food left down in the morning, although he often does not touch it. He then has his main meal between 5pm and 6pm. His owner sometimes adds grated ham or chicken as a treat. Louie particularly enjoys treats such as pig and cow ears. As he is currently overweight, he will need a sensible feeding routine, appropriate portions and a gradual exercise programme to help him reach a healthier weight. Health Louie is overweight and has occasionally suffered from ear infections, usually affecting his left ear. He was treated for an ear infection last year, and his owner has been cleaning his ears with baby wipes. He currently has a cut on his front left paw, which happened when he knocked it against a stone. He has been licking it, although this has reduced over the last day or so. This should be checked to ensure it is healing properly. Louie is castrated, although the date is not known. His vaccinations are due now. He was last wormed in February 2026, and his worming treatment is due to be updated. He is microchipped. Home Life and Things Louie Enjoys During the day, Louie usually relaxes on his bed. At night, he sleeps in his owner’s bedroom or on the bed, although he is happy to sleep anywhere in the house. He enjoys playing with balls and rope toys, and particularly likes a game of pretend fighting with his owner. He will playfully try to get away before coming back for more. He also loves belly rubs and cuddles and is often found sleeping on his back with his legs in the air! .
