But if there’s one thing that makes dogs extra special, it’s their impressive nose-powered abilities.

Our tail-wagging beauties possess a ridiculously powerful nose that can perform the toughest scent-detection tasks, including detecting medical conditions like diabetes and cancer with a high level of accuracy. (Watch the viral clip below)

If you’ve ever questioned whether dogs can indeed sniff out cancer, then you’ll be mind-blown by a now-viral video capturing a trained Beagle accurately detecting cancer odor in different samples. Yes, this lovely Beagle may be small, but his nose is nothing short of mighty. We have a feeling his cancer detection accuracy can rival the latest cancer screening machine.

A Super Sniffer 

The short clip, posted by SpotitEarly — a biotech company focused on revolutionizing cancer screening — shows the Beagle sniffing one sample after another, then giving a cue as soon as his nose detects the cancerous sample. The cue? Sitting if he smells cancer odor in a sample. Let’s just say, our furry friends are pretty much unsung heroes in the world of medicine, all thanks to their superior sense of smell.

So far, the clip has racked up over six million views and thousands of comments, with many sharing their personal experiences proving that dogs can indeed smell cancer. 

“My Beagle became obsessed with my neck, sniffing it, pawing at it, snuggling on it. A few years later, I was diagnosed with thyroid cancer,” one person wrote. 

“My dog was the one who alerted me to my first tumor. So if your dog keeps nudging you in the same spot over and over again and they never did that before, get checked out,” another commented. 

“My dog detected cancer on my other dog almost one month earlier than the vets,” a third person added. 

How Dogs Detect Cancer in Humans 

Research shows that cancer cells emit specific chemical odors, scientifically known as Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs). These compounds are usually released through bodily secretions like urine, sweat, stool, and saliva.

You’d be surprised to know that a dog’s nose is estimated to possess about 125 million to 300 million scent glands, compared to the human nose, which only has roughly five million scent glands. That means the dog’s nose is extremely sensitive to the faintest of odors that the human nose can’t detect, including the VOCs produced by various diseases. 

Dogs used in cancer detection work are trained to positively identify the signature odor in cancerous samples, even when the odor is in low concentration. Through consistent training, these dogs are able to accurately distinguish cancerous samples from healthy samples.  

Several studies show that dogs can accurately detect a wide range of cancers, from lung cancer to melanoma, ovarian cancer, colorectal cancer, breast cancer, and prostate cancer. 

  • In a 2021 study, one well-trained dog was able to smell lung cancer in urine and breath samples. Amazingly, the dog accurately sniffed out cancer odor in 40 out of the 41 cancerous samples.
  • Another study established that dogs can accurately detect colorectal cancer in stool and breath samples, even when the cancer is in its early stages. 
  • In a study conducted in 2021, a trained female Labrador Retriever was able to detect breast cancer in urine samples with almost 100% accuracy. 
  • In a 2015 study, two German Shepherds were able to sniff out prostate cancer in urine samples with near-perfect precision.
  • In another study, two dogs were able to detect melanoma with 100% accuracy in a patient whose cancer pathology test was initially negative. 

It’s also not unusual for an untrained pet dog to sniff out cancer in their human. In one instance, a Border Collie mix sniffed out a cancerous tumour on his owner’s face several months before his diagnosis.

Vet Says Gunshots Missed Her Brain by Millimeters—Now This Beagle’s Recovery Is Inspiring Millions https://rockykanaka.com/vet-says-gunshots-missed-her-brain-by-millimeters-now-this-beagles-recovery-is-inspiring-millions/ Sun, 27 Apr 2025 13:00:00 +0000 https://rockykanaka.com/?p=112428 While driving down a highway, Elle Meredith (@elleplantnurse), a plant herbalist, came across a heartbreaking sight that stopped her in her tracks—a beagle lying injured on the roadside, barely clinging to life. The dog had been shot twice in the head, was bleeding from the mouth, and was emaciated to the bone. (Watch Video Below)

@elleplantnurse @3NewsNow @Omaha World-Herald We know more than we can say for now. Now she has a name. Now she has a bed. Now she knows love. Her name is Juni. And she’s surviving for every voiceless animal that couldn’t. #JusticeForJuni #AnimalAbuseSurvivor #RescueDog #DogRescue #rescuedogsoftiktok #beagle #beaglesoftiktok ♬ Rescue – Lauren Daigle

To Elle, it felt like a miracle that the dog was still breathing. Without hesitation, she rushed the stray to a vet for emergency care. Now, three weeks later, the dog—lovingly named Juni—is finally on the road to recovery. 

Cruel Act That Almost Cost Her Life

It is absolutely horrifying to think that someone would shoot a little dog. The vet visit revealed that the gunshots missed Juni’s brain and eyes by mere centimeters. Elle is clearly upset with what happened to Juni, as any dog lover would be. But she is doing everything she can to turn things around for the Beagle and is caring for her in her own home.

Due to Elle’s determined efforts, Juni now knows safety and what it is to be loved. She is doing a lot better, as revealed in an update by Elle. The sweet and affectionate dog finally gets to enjoy life with her new parent and a Golden Retriever fursibling. 

Juni’s Latest Update

Three weeks after Elle found Juni bleeding and broken on the highway, the resilient Beagle has made remarkable progress. She’s not only alive—she’s gaining weight, growing stronger, and slowly shedding the frail, emaciated look of the dog she once was.

While Elle continues to provide the best care for Juni, she’s also on a mission to seek justice for the horrific cruelty inflicted on her. She wants Juni’s story to be heard far and wide—and the world is listening. The video documenting Juni’s rescue has gone viral, reaching over 10 million views and more than 1 million likes. It even caught the attention of animal rights advocate Paul Mueller.

Thousands have poured into the comments with messages of love and heartbreak. “Poor baby. She looks so broken 😭 Thank you for saving her,” wrote Angie. Another user, Kelli Shackleton, added, “I can’t even imagine how she must have felt being abandoned, alone, scared, and confused. Poor soul 😢.”

Elle’s rescue of Juni touched countless hearts online, including animal advocate and dog rescuer Rocky Kanaka, who had this to say about her story: “Juni is living proof that even in the darkest moments, kindness can change everything. She didn’t just survive—she found someone who believed her life was worth saving.”

Happy Tears! This Rescued Beagle Spent 5 Years in a Lab—Now He’s Learning to Trust Again https://rockykanaka.com/5-years-of-animal-testing-left-this-beagle-traumatized-now-he-battles-panic-attacks/ Tue, 25 Feb 2025 19:03:00 +0000 https://rockykanaka.com/?p=98879 Surviving five years of horrific treatment at an animal testing lab, a Beagle called Ted struggles to leave his past behind. Even though Ted is now safe and sound with a loving pet parent, Sam McGraw, who rescued him, the dog still suffers from anxiety, affecting his ability to live life to the fullest.

In a TikTok video, Sam recounted a heartbreaking incident during what was supposed to be a routine grooming session. Ted unexpectedly had a panic attack, howling in distress and pooping—a poignant reminder of how deeply his past continues to impact his present life.

@sammcgraww I have had Ted for over 5 years and it still breaks my heart when he gets his anxiety attacks. He usually does ok with the groomers, I stay on site and they do a “vip groom” which involves 1 groomer and no cages… the groom is just a bath and nails and takes no longer than 25 minutes. Today the groomers was too nerve racking for Ted. He was screaming and went to the bathroom, he couldn’t help it. The car ride home broke my heart. Small things can trigger animal tested dogs. We must be gentle and patient. End animal testing. #endanimaltesting #crueltyfree #doganxiety #dogmom #beaglefreedom ♬ what was I made for? – Instrumental – Wheeler

“VIP Groom” For Anxiety-Riddled Dog

To help Ted cope with his anxiety, his dog mom takes extra precautions to make his grooming sessions as stress-free as possible. Ted receives a “VIP groom,” a specialized service involving just one groomer and no cages. The session, which includes a bath and nail trimming, is kept brief—around 25 minutes—to reduce stress and avoid any potential triggers.

Despite these measures, an unexpected grooming session triggered severe anxiety in Ted, forcing Sam to abandon the appointment and take him back home. Even the car ride—typically one of Ted’s favorite activities—proved distressing. He panted and trembled the entire way until they arrived home.

Once back, Sam gave Ted his anti-anxiety medication, and he released his pent-up nervous energy through a round of zoomies. Shortly afterward, he began to settle, eventually enjoying some much-deserved cookies.

Dog Mom Raises Awareness About Animal Testing

Through the video, Sam aims to help viewers understand the consequences of animal testing on innocent animals. The overlay text in the video reads, “Animal testing traumatizes animals. Normal things like grooming can be so hard for these rescues.” 

With over 15 thousand likes, the TikTok post has evidently struck a chord with many netizens. A user, Em, commented, “Oh Ted😭 breaks my heart that the first 5 years of his life caused him so much trauma. So glad he’s with you now living his life as best he can❤️” 

Pet rescue advocate, Rocky Kanaka says, “Ted’s journey shows the heartbreaking toll of animal testing, but also the incredible power of rescue and rehabilitation. With the right care, these dogs can find joy again.”

Panic Attack in Dogs

Ted’s terrifying panic attack might leave you wondering: can dogs have panic attacks? 

Veterinarian Dr. Joanna Woodnutt explains, “Panic attacks [in dogs] are an extreme display of fear that can be caused by underlying anxiety or phobias. It’s not always possible to find a trigger, but professional help is important to get to the bottom of what’s happening.” 

Veterinarians and canine behaviorists believe that dogs can experience panic attacks similar to humans. While anxiety is common in dogs, panic attacks are extreme reactions that are out of proportion to the danger they’re in. While experts debate the definition, most agree that panic attacks involve intense symptoms triggered by anxiety disorders, including phobias.

A pet parent, u/Top-Feature9570, shared on Reddit about their dog experiencing panic attacks, saying, “My 11 year old Labrador Retriever has been having daily panic attacks for the last week as well as on-and-off for the last few months. There’s never any clear cause for the sudden anxiety. The only thing that seems to help in the moment is exercise and playing outside.” 

Dog Panic Attack Symptoms

Symptoms of a dog anxiety attack or panic attack can manifest in various ways, as per Dr. Woodnutt. These may include escape behavior or hiding, destructiveness and digging, and physical signs of anxiety such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and urination. 

Additionally, when a dog experiences a panic attack, they can exhibit pacing, trembling, sudden panting, and drooling. They may also display frantic attention-seeking behavior and vocalize their distress through howling, barking, or whining.

How to Diagnose Canine Panic Attacks?

Diagnosing panic attacks in dogs involves a thorough approach to rule out other potential causes. A veterinarian will conduct a clinical exam and may recommend blood tests to check for underlying medical conditions. Once medical causes are ruled out, a veterinary behaviorist may be consulted to identify the underlying cause behind the dog’s behavior and differentiate it from other conditions with similar symptoms.

Causes of Panic Attacks in Dogs 

Four common causes of canine panic attacks include:

  • Separation Anxiety: Some dogs experience severe panic when left alone, often due to improper introduction to solo time or association of certain sounds, like keys jangling, with being left behind.
  • Noise Sensitivity: Loud noises or associated changes, such as air pressure changes before a storm, can trigger panic attacks.
  • Crate Anxiety: Dogs may become panicked in small spaces, such as cages or crates, especially if they have had negative experiences or lack proper training.
  • Vet and Grooming Sessions: Traumatic experiences at veterinary or grooming practices can lead to panic attacks, triggered by sights, sounds, or associations with pain, separation, or confinement.

How To Help A Dog Having A Panic Attack?

Here are some tips provided by Dr. Wailani Sung, a veterinarian at PetMD for helping a dog experiencing a panic attack:

Exercise

To reduce anxiety, provide your dog with plenty of physical and mental stimulation. Aim for at least 15-20 minutes of exercise and playtime daily, and consider adding puzzle toys and short training sessions to keep their minds engaged. Calming activities like petting, brushing, or massage also help soothe their nerves.

Safe Space

Creating a safe space for your anxious dog to retreat to during a panic attack can also be incredibly helpful. Provide a quiet, comfortable space for them to hide and feel safe, and consider using calming music, pheromone sprays, or diffusers to reduce anxiety. By giving your dog a sense of security and calm, you can help them better cope with panic attacks.

Treatment Plan

In some cases, supplements or medication may be necessary to help manage your dog’s panic attacks. Natural supplements like l-theanine or l-tryptophan can have a calming effect, while antianxiety medication may be prescribed by your veterinarian for more severe cases. 

FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions)

Can dogs have anxiety attacks?

Yes, dogs can have anxiety attacks, according to experts at Wag Walking, which can be similar to panic attacks. Symptoms of anxiety attacks in dogs include panting, whining, shaking, and destructive behavior. 

How to stop dog panic attack?

To stop a dog panic attack, provide a calm and safe space for your dog to retreat to. Offer physical comfort like petting or hugs, and try to distract them with toys, treats, or short walks. You can also use calming aids like pheromone sprays or calming music to help soothe their anxiety. If your dog’s panic attacks are severe or frequent, consult a veterinarian for professional guidance and potential medication.

Can dogs die from anxiety attacks?

Anxiety attacks alone are not fatal to dogs, according to veterinary research. However, they can lead to potentially life-threatening complications, such as increased heart rate and blood pressure, as well as self-inflicted injuries.

This Scared Dog Couldn’t Stop Shaking… Until I Sang Her a Song https://rockykanaka.com/sitting-with-dogs-70/ Fri, 01 Nov 2024 20:01:29 +0000 https://rockykanaka.com/?p=88561 I first met Ellie, a 10-month-old hound mix, in one of the more somber corners of the shelter. She had been found by a parent and child near the lake, wandering alone and covered in dirt. No collar, no microchip, and from her sad, nervous eyes, no place she could call home. Ellie wasn’t just nervous—she was absolutely petrified. When Animal Control brought her in, she would “pancake” at the slightest approach, freezing to the ground as if the world were too much for her.

To me, Ellie was a dog who had given up hope, and my heart went out to her. I couldn’t rush this process; I had to earn her trust one slow step at a time.

Ellie: Sitting With Dogs 70

Training Tips for a Shy, Fearful Dog

Ellie’s fear reminded me that some dogs need more than just time; they need patience and a strategy. When dogs are this vulnerable, any sudden move can set them back. So, I went in armed with treats—the good stuff—to coax her out, hoping to engage her senses. She needed a bit of quiet, so I asked the shelter team to move the louder dogs away from her kennel, trying to create a little oasis of calm. At first, Ellie kept her distance, trembling in the corner. But the treats, I hoped, would start shifting her focus, drawing her out just a little.

State of Fear: Why Dogs Like Ellie Need Extra Care

Ellie: Sitting With Dogs 70

Days into her stay, Ellie’s situation hadn’t improved. She was still so frightened that she avoided food, barely drank water, and even resisted going to the bathroom. It broke my heart to see her like this because prolonged stress can weaken a dog’s body. I knew we had to act fast to break her out of this cycle. Dogs like Ellie don’t just need to feel safe—they need to know it through every fiber of their being.

The Scoop: A Hug of Comfort and Safety

Sometimes, you have to try everything, even if it means stepping outside the usual methods. I decided to give Ellie what I call “the scoop”—a gentle, reassuring hug. It’s a bit like a ThunderShirt that applies calming pressure, helping her feel secure. I crouched beside her, spoke softly, and carefully gathered her into a hug, pressing just enough to let her feel supported. And then, I started singing—a rendition of “Somewhere Over the Rainbow.” I’m no singer, but for Ellie, I’d try anything. As I sang, I noticed her shaking ease up just a little, and she leaned into me, if only for a moment.

Treats and Small Wins: Building Trust, One Treat at a Time

With Ellie, progress came in the smallest of ways. I offered her treats, and after a few minutes, she sniffed at them, then cautiously took one. Watching her whiskers twitch as she tasted it was a victory. I could see the faintest hint of curiosity spark in her eyes. And with each treat, I could tell she was inching a little closer to feeling safe. These tiny gestures reminded me that patience is everything when you’re dealing with a dog as fearful as Ellie.

Singing and Soothing Touch: The Power of Sensory Comfort

As I sat with Ellie, I knew that connecting with her would take more than just treats and gentle touches. With dogs as fearful as Ellie, traditional methods sometimes fall short, so I decided to try something a bit unconventional—I started singing.

Ellie: Sitting With Dogs 70

“Somewhere Over the Rainbow” might not be the most professional performance, but in that moment, it didn’t need to be. My singing wasn’t about hitting the right notes; it was about creating a soothing atmosphere and building a bridge to reach Ellie’s wary heart. The melody served as a kind of lullaby, the rhythm helping to calm her with each note. I noticed her tense muscles soften just slightly, her eyes blinking slower, almost as if she recognized that the sound was meant to comfort her.

For a dog stuck in a constant state of fear, hearing a familiar voice in song can be grounding. Sound, after all, is one of a dog’s primary senses, and when I sang to Ellie, it created a connection beyond words—a sort of reassurance that told her she was safe without saying it outright. As I sang, I held her gently, hoping that between my arms and the soft tune, she would start to feel, if just for a moment, a glimmer of peace.

Naming Ellie: A Community Effort

Ellie didn’t have a name, so we turned to our community for suggestions. The members voted, settling on “Ellie,” inspired by Lake Elsinore where she was found. It felt fitting. In Greek, Ellie means “light” or “bright one,” and I have a feeling she’s going to be the light in someone’s life very soon.

What’s Her Breed? More Than Just a Hound

Ellie: Sitting With Dogs 70

Ellie’s clearly part hound, with those big, floppy ears and soulful eyes. There may be some Lab mixed in there, too. But her breed doesn’t matter as much as her spirit does. She’s a reminder of resilience and hope, a sweet girl just waiting for someone to give her a chance.

Finding Ellie’s Forever Home

If you’re reading this, you might be the person Ellie needs. She’s a special dog, one who will thrive with a patient, loving family. She’s not the kind of pup who’ll run to the front of the kennel, tail wagging; Ellie needs someone willing to reach out to her and let her learn that the world is safe. If you think that might be you, reach out. And if you can’t adopt, sharing her story could be the first step in helping her find the family she deserves.

This Stray Beagle Lost a Leg, But Gained a Second Chance—How Losing a Leg Saved Her Life https://rockykanaka.com/this-stray-beagle-lost-a-leg-but-gained-a-second-chance-how-losing-a-leg-saved-her-life/ Sat, 14 Sep 2024 14:00:00 +0000 https://rockykanaka.com/?p=79382 A dog with three legs may be an object of sympathy, but sometimes it is an indication of getting another shot at life. This is the case of a Beagle called Kahlua who had a mysterious and painful past and an uncertain future. 

This Stray Beagle Lost a Leg, But Gained a Second Chance—How Losing a Leg Saved Her Life

Kahlua was first found by animal control as a stray female dog in Arlington, Virginia. Her left front leg was seriously injured up to the point that it was almost detached from her body. Her condition suggested that she had been in a terrible incident. Apart from her obvious leg damage, Kahlua also came with a fractured pelvis.

The Beagle Had Likely Been In A Car Accident

When the veterinarians saw Kahlua’s pitiable condition, they concluded that the only way to provide her with a pain-free life was to amputate her damaged front leg. It’s never an easy decision but the vets must have deemed it the best option.

Source: @1510foundation on Instagram

Kahlua’s entire treatment was sponsored by the 15/10 foundation, which was created by the team behind the popular social media account, WeRateDogs. They asked their followers to help Kahlua and as a result, the Beagle was able to have a successful operation including the leg amputation. 

“Vet care can be pretty expensive and this is one of the major reasons that dogs with an injury or health issue are abandoned on the streets,” said Rocky Kanaka, Pet Rescue Advocate.

Second Shot At Happiness

After the successful amputation, Kahlua recovered and started to become more confident. She was finally pain-free after a long time, which showed in her entire demeanor. The dog may have lost a limb, but her slowly increasing confidence proved that she was doing much better. 

Consequently, once she was ready, the tripod dog found her forever home and got adopted. Her wonderful parent is now giving Kahlua all the love and care she deserves. 

Understanding Dog Leg Amputation

Kahlua’s story draws attention to the practice of amputating a dog’s leg. As per Michael Kearley, a veterinarian, amputating a dog’s leg is a procedure veterinarians recommend only when absolutely necessary, often as a last resort or to alleviate severe pain. 

In his words, “Although leg amputation in dogs may sound extreme, the procedure provides a successful outcome for many pups. In one study, 91% of pet parents reported no change in their dog’s general attitude after amputation.”

When Would I Need To Amputate My Dog’s Leg?

Some pet parents and animal rescues have to make the decision whether leg amputation of a dog is the way to go. 

According to Dr. Kearley, if you and the vets determine that your dog is suffering from “long-term pain,” impaired mobility, or a significantly diminished quality of life, then leg amputation can be the best option.

So, if you’re wondering “Should I amputate my dog’s leg with osteosarcoma?,” Dr. Kearley states, “osteosarcoma, a common bone cancer, is extremely painful, and amputation can be an effective treatment option.” 

Additional reasons for leg amputation can include:

  • Traumatic Injuries
  • Advanced Arthritis
  • Complex Fractures
  • Severe Infections
  • Chronic Wounds
  • Joint Dislocation
  • Blood Flow Restrictions
  • Congenital Defects
  • Nerve Damage
  • Paralysis

Ambutation May Not Be the Solution For Every Dog

Eileen Johnson, a pit bull owner, shared her regret after making the difficult decision to amputate one of her senior dog’s legs due to cancer. “After consulting with several veterinarians, we chose amputation as the best chance for his survival. But at nearly 13 years old, he never adapted to life on three legs and was visibly miserable,” Johnson explained. “Looking back, I wish we hadn’t put him through that—it wasn’t the right choice for him in his final years.”

Dog Leg Amputation Cost

With the rising vet costs, it’s natural to wonder “How much does it cost to amputate a dog’s leg?” The cost of dog leg amputation depends on various factors, such as how big is the dog, and which leg is being amputated (forelimb or hind limb). Dr. Kearley asserts, “In general, you can expect to pay $5,000 to $7,000 or more for the procedure.”

FAQs About Dog Leg Amputation

1. When is amputation the best option for my dog?

Amputation is typically recommended when a dog’s leg is causing chronic pain or significantly affecting their quality of life. Common reasons include bone cancer (osteosarcoma), severe trauma, or congenital defects. Veterinarians often consider amputation as a last resort when other treatments are ineffective or not feasible.

2. How will my dog adjust to life with three legs?

Most dogs adapt surprisingly well to life on three legs. After the initial recovery period, many dogs regain mobility and can lead a happy, active life. However, age, size, and pre-existing health conditions can affect how quickly a dog adjusts, with younger and smaller dogs typically adapting more easily.

3. How long is the recovery process after amputation?

Recovery usually takes 2 to 4 weeks, though this varies depending on the dog’s age, overall health, and the severity of the surgery. Most dogs can start walking within a few days, but full recovery, including regaining strength and coordination, can take several weeks. Your vet will provide a tailored recovery plan and monitor progress.

4. What can I expect after surgery in terms of pain management?

Pain management is a critical part of post-amputation care. Veterinarians typically prescribe painkillers and anti-inflammatory medications to keep your dog comfortable. You may also be given instructions for icing the wound and managing swelling. Be sure to follow your vet’s guidance closely to ensure your dog’s comfort during recovery.

5. Will my dog be able to live a normal life after amputation?

Yes, most dogs live full, happy lives after amputation. Dogs tend to adapt well to physical challenges and, after a recovery period, they can run, play, and enjoy life much like they did before. However, dogs with pre-existing mobility issues or other health concerns may have a harder time adjusting, so it’s important to consider your dog’s overall health.

6. Are there any alternatives to amputation?

Depending on the condition, alternatives may include limb-sparing surgery, prosthetics, or physical therapy. However, these options are often more costly and not as effective in cases of cancer or severe trauma. Your veterinarian will help you weigh the pros and cons of alternatives based on your dog’s specific situation.

7. How much does dog leg amputation typically cost?

The cost of amputation varies depending on factors like your location, the size of the dog, and the complexity of the surgery. On average, you can expect the procedure to cost between $5,000 and $7,000. This includes the surgery, anesthesia, medications, and post-operative care. Some veterinary clinics offer payment plans or assistance programs to help manage costs.

How Long Do Beagles Live? Here’s Everything You Should Know About the Beagle’s Life Expectancy https://rockykanaka.com/how-long-do-beagles-live-heres-everything-you-should-know-about-the-beagles-life-expectancy/ Thu, 22 Aug 2024 22:52:51 +0000 https://rockykanaka.com/?p=78293 Friendly, happy-go-lucky, adventurous, and vocal: these are the top four words that come to mind when we think of the Beagle. 

Beagles — estimated to weigh between 20 and 30 pounds — are descendants of now-extinct scent hounds that were used by hunters in Ancient Greece. The development of the modern-day Beagle soared in Great Britain in the early 18th century, as breeders in the region focused on creating a smaller hound dog with enhanced hunting capabilities; a dog that could easily track and hunt small game such as hares and rabbits through dense underbrush. 

How Long Do Beagles Live?

Beagles were introduced in America shortly after the Civil War and, in 1885, received official breed recognition by the American Kennel Club (AKC). Besides their remarkable hunting skills, Beagles quickly won hearts for their good looks and wonderful temperament, qualities that saw this loveable breed attain popularity as incredible family pets. Today, the Beagle takes the eighth spot as the most popular dog breed in the USA.

Admired for its long, floppy ears, keen sense of smell, short, low-maintenance coat, and outgoing personality, the Beagle is truly one of the most fun dogs you could ever own. This playful, sociable breed gets along with kids and adults alike and has a strong eagerness to please its owners. Because of their high energy levels, Beagles are best suited for active owners willing to put in the time and effort to give them adequate mental and physical stimulation every day. 

Not to mention, Beagles are known to be escape artists once they get a whiff of an enticing smell. This is why it’s essential for Beagle owners to have fully-fenced yards.  

If you’re entertaining the idea of welcoming a Beagle into your home, you’re likely curious about this breed’s lifespan. So, if your mind is flooded with thoughts like “beagle life expectancy,” “average lifespan Beagle,” “average life expectancy of a Beagle,” or “life expectancy for a Beagle,” you’ve come to the right place.

Average Lifespan of a Beagle Revealed 

 

Small dog breeds like the Beagle enjoy a fairly long lifespan compared to large breeds. According to Beagle Pro, the Beagle’s average life expectancy between 12–15 years. 

But as with any other breed, it’s not unusual for a healthy, well-cared-for Beagle to live beyond the estimated 12 to 15 years. You’ll be surprised to learn that the longest-living Beagle on record was a dog named Butch from Virginia. According to Oldest.org, Butch died in 2003 at the age of 28. 

The internet is also filled with more real-life cases of dog owners whose Beagles have crossed the 12–15 years average lifespan.

“I’ve had two Beagles over the years, who both lived to 16 years of age with no major health issues,” wrote one user in a Reddit discussion on older Beagles.   

“Just a 20-year-old Beagle lovin’ life!” shared another user@indiyyoggi44 on Reddit alongside a photo of their senior Beagle. 

In other words, expect your Beagle to live a longer life if you faithfully play your part in giving them a high quality of life. 

5 Common Health Issues that Affect the Beagle’s Life Expectancy

As with any other dog breed— whether a crossbreed or a purebred dog — Beagles are prone to specific health conditions, which, without timely treatment, can shorten their quality of life and, ultimately, lifespan. 

Here are five health problems prevalent in this loveable, energetic breed:

  • Epileptic seizures

Beagles are susceptible to developing epileptic seizures at an early age. In fact, a 2018 study found that the Beagle is among the top six dog breeds with a high prevalence of seizures. Thankfully, with medication and proper care, your Beagle can lead a much healthier life.

“My eldest Beagle boy Biggie was diagnosed with epilepsy at 2 y/o shortly after I adopted him. He takes phenobarbital 2x daily and hasn’t had a seizure since,” wrote user @Sample_Wild in a Reddit discussion on seizures in Beagles

  • Ear Infections 

Beagles are adored for their big, floppy ears. Sadly, these gorgeous ears — if not well cared for — can put your Beagle at risk of persistent yeast and bacterial infections that can lower their life quality.  

  • Eye Disorders 

Beagles are prone to developing a number of eye conditions, including cherry eye, which can gradually affect their quality of life if not timely addressed. 

  • Hypothyroidism

Unfortunately, Beagles are among the top breeds susceptible to hypothyroidism, a progressive condition characterized by malfunctioning of the thyroid gland. Luckily, this healthy issue can be medically managed under your vet’s guidance.

  • Brain and Spinal Cord Disorders 

Last but not least, Beagles are prone to disorders of the brain and spinal cord, such as Intervertebral Disc Disease (IVDD) and Steroid Responsive meningitis (SRM).


6 Essential Tips to Help Your Beagle Live Longer

As a beagle owner, you have great influence over your dog’s lifespan, and it all starts with a commitment to giving them the best possible life. Here are a few tips that will help ensure your Beagle bestie remains by your side longer than you expect:

  • If you decide to purchase instead of adopt, make sure you get your Beagle from a reputable breeder.
  • Ensure your Beagle is on a balanced, high-quality dog food approved by your veterinarian. 
  • Be sure to prioritize regular vet visits so that any developing health issues are caught and addressed early.
  • Establish a consistent exercise routine for your Beagle to help them remain in great shape throughout their life. 
  • Provide daily mental stimulation to keep your dog healthy and happy.
  • Remember that proper dental hygiene is essential to your dog’s overall health. For this reason, ensure your Beagle has a regular dental care routine.

Beagle Rescued From Testing Lab Enjoys First Steps On Grass & Finds Her Forever Home. https://rockykanaka.com/beagle-rescued-from-testing-lab-enjoys-first-steps-on-grass-finds-her-forever-home/ Tue, 10 Oct 2023 16:56:53 +0000 https://rockykanaka.com/?p=38433 In the vibrant world outside the sterile confines of a testing lab, a beagle named Tashi steps tentatively onto the grass, her paws feeling the strange, soft texture beneath them for the first time. Her eyes, once dulled by the stark, unchanging environment of the lab, now flicker with a cautious curiosity. Rocky Kanaka, a passionate animal advocate, watches her, his heart swelling with a mixture of joy and sorrow.

Beagle

Tashi, along with thousands of other beagles, had been confined to a life of testing and experimentation, reduced to a mere number, tattooed onto her ear: CMF CWJ. The beagle, a breed chosen frequently for lab testing due to their docile and forgiving nature, had never known the simple joys that other dogs experience daily.

Rocky, with his project “Dog’s Day Out,” aimed to change that, at least for Tashi and her fellow lab survivors.

It’s A Regal Beagle– Prince Harry & Meghan Markle Adopt

“They didn’t even give her a name. They only gave her a tattoo,” Rocky said as he introduced Tashi’s story to the world. Her life, up until her release, was confined to a cage, her identity stripped down to a mere number amidst the 4,000 beagles kept in captivity.

Beagles Who Spent Entire Life in Testing Lab

The Beagle Freedom Project, an initiative that aims to rescue beagles used in animal experimentation in research laboratories and give them a chance at life after labs, has been instrumental in bringing stories like Tashi’s to light. Beagles are often subjected to various tests due to their gentle disposition and relatively small size. They endure a life that knows no walks, no loving human companionship, and no freedom.

Beagles Who Spent Entire Life in Testing Lab

As Tashi explored the world beyond the lab, Rocky was there to guide her, ensuring her first experiences of freedom were filled with love, comfort, and joy. Her first Puppuccino, a delightful concoction from a local café, brought forth the first glimpses of a playful spirit, long suppressed by the stark confines of the lab.

Beagle Who Spent Entire Life in Testing Lab, Tashi

“Promise you now, girl, you’re more than just a number and we are gonna do whatever it takes to find you a home,” Rocky whispered to Tashi, a promise that extended beyond mere words.

What Are the Best Dog Foods for Beagles & Beagle Puppies?

Tashi’s journey from the lab to exploring the world was not just a physical transition but an emotional and psychological one too. Her first steps on the grass, her first interaction with toys, and her first taste of various treats were all monumental moments, signaling not just her freedom but also her introduction to a world where she was valued and loved.

Beagle Who Spent Entire Life in Testing Lab having Puppucino

In a poignant moment, Tashi, who had never known the comfort of choosing, was given the liberty to “buy” anything she touched at a pet store. Her tentative paws touched toys, beds, and even cat litter, each item a symbol of her newfound freedom and choice.

“Whatever you want, I’ll buy it! All you gotta do is touch it!” Rocky encouraged, his voice a gentle coaxing against the backdrop of a world that was entirely new to Tashi.

The journey was not without its challenges. Tashi, unfamiliar with the concept of play and interaction, initially found it overwhelming to engage with the world around her. But with patience, gentle encouragement, and an unwavering commitment from Rocky, she began to explore, play, and even make choices.

Beagle Who Spent Entire Life in Testing Lab

The story of Tashi is not just a tale of liberation from captivity but also a testament to the resilience and forgiving nature of animals, even those who have only known suffering at the hands of humans. It’s a narrative that intertwines the cruelty of animal testing labs with the boundless capacity for love and forgiveness found in beings like Tashi.

The Lemon Beagle: The Rarest Type Of Beagle

As Tashi experienced her first day out, her first ice cream, and her first interaction with other dogs, she also experienced something far more profound – the realization that she was finally safe, loved, and free to just be a dog.

Rocky’s endeavor to find Tashi a forever home was met with a heartwarming response. Families lined up, eager to provide homes for Tashi and her fellow beagles, offering them a second chance at life – a life where they would be cherished, not as subjects, but as beloved family members.

Rocky and Tashi at toy store

“We drove from Vegas early in the morning to looking for a beagle to take home and we finally found a beagle to take home. So we’re super excited,” shared a family, their faces lighting up with joy as they welcomed Tashi into their lives.

Tashi

Tashi’s story, from a numbered entity in a lab to a beloved pet, is a stark reminder of the silent suffering endured by countless animals in testing labs across the globe. It’s a call to action, urging us to look beyond our immediate surroundings and to advocate for those who have no voice.

In the gentle wag of Tashi’s tail and the soft, trusting look in her eyes, we are reminded of the profound impact kindness can have, turning a tale of sorrow into a story of hope, love, and endless possibilities.

Beagle Mixed with Corgi Basic Info

Learn how the Beagle and Corgi mix to create the Beagi! This mixed breed is a bundle of fun, but there are some personality traits and health problems you should know about before you commit yourself to one of these pups.

Beagle Corgi Mix Temperament

Beagles are a small scent hound bred to hunt and track small game. They have big personalities and won’t hesitate to tell you exactly how they’re feeling—these dogs are vocal. Corgis have the same determined one-track minds but are more watchful and suspicious than the Beagle. Corgis are a herding breed, and like Beagles they have strong prey drive and instincts to chase. 

Corgis and Beagles (in particular) are food-motivated, bossy, and independent, and will happily get into the garbage or your cupboards and onto your counters to snag a treat. 

“[My Beagle Corgi mix is] toothless now but still likes to chew and eat hard food. We have cats and she considers it her mission to steal any of their food she can,” says a Beagi owner in a Reddit comment

Intelligent and trainable, Beagle Corgi mixes can be stubborn and may give inexperienced dog owners a run for their money. Beagis can be very affectionate and develop close bonds with their families. Some may be prone to separation anxiety, especially thanks to their Corgi parentage, so proper training, socialization, and stimulation are very important. These pups can be great family pets, but because they like to chase and boss anything that moves around, they might not be right for families with young children.

Beagle Corgi Mix Size

The typical Beagle Corgi mix stands around 12–15 inches at the shoulder and weighs between 15–30 pounds

Beagle Corgi Mix Health

Mixed-breed dogs are often healthier than their purebred parents and are less likely to inherit genetic illnesses or extreme breed traits that often contribute to poor health. For example, purebred Corgis are prone to back problems thanks to their exaggerated length and short legs, but mixes may be less likely to develop these issues. This said, many Corgi and Beagle mixes still suffer from health problems like:

  • Allergies
  • Joint problems (e.g. elbow and hip dysplasia, patellar luxation)
  • Back problems (e.g. IVDD, degenerative disc disease)
  • Unwanted weight changes (e.g. hypothyroidism, prone to obesity)
  • Diabetes
  • Epilepsy

Where To Find a Beagle Corgi Mix Puppy

Although some people have attempted to rebrand mixed breeds as “designer dogs,” there isn’t anything designer about crossing two breeds. Backyard breeders and puppy mills practice cross-breeding not to improve the health or well-being of a breed, but to try to create a dog that will earn them a handsome sum of money. 

We do not recommend buying mixed breeds like the Beagle Corgi mix from a breeder. Instead, search for your new canine bestie at a local shelter or breed-specific rescue. The dogs we featured above are mostly—if not all—rescues, and they’re a fabulous example of how easy it is to find a Beagle Corgi cross for adoption. 

Check out these resources to help you find a Beagle/Corgi mix:

If you want a purebred Beagle, we recommend looking at the Beagle Freedom Project first. To find ethical Beagle and Corgi breeders, visit the American Kennel Club’s breeder marketplace

A mix of either breed and Beagle may be called a Corgi Beagle mix/Beagle Corgi mix, a Borgi, or a Beagi. Cardigan Welsh Corgis are uncommon in the U.S. so the majority of Borgis are Pembroke mixes. Here is a side-by-side comparison of a Pembroke Welsh Corgi (left) and a Cardigan Welsh Corgi (right).

To draw your beagle puppy’s eyes, start by sketching two circles for each eye. Make sure they are evenly spaced apart and proportional in size. Inside these circles, add small highlights that give them a shiny appearance – this will make your pup look even more adorable.

Curving Eyebrows Above Each Eye

To create expressive eyebrows for your beagle puppy, draw gentle curves just above each eye. These curved lines should follow the contour of the eyes and extend slightly beyond them on both sides. The thickness and length of these lines can vary depending on personal preference but remember that they should not overpower or distract from other facial features like the eyes themselves.

Adding a Round Nose with Proper Spacing

The next step is to draw another circle for your beagle puppy’s nose. Keep it round but slightly smaller than the eyes so that it looks proportionate within their face. Add some space between the nose and mouth area while also including a highlight inside the nostrils – just like you did with their eyes.

Sketching Out an Adorable Curved Mouth

Last but not least, complete your beagle puppy’s facial features by adding an endearing curved mouth below its nose. To do this effectively, first draw a soft curve slanting inward from one side of their head towards where you want their mouth to begin; then continue extending it around until reaching back up at another point along those same lines (creating what resembles a half-circle). This simple yet effective technique ensures that our furry friend has both charm and character throughout every aspect of its design.

After completing your beagle puppy’s facial features, it is time to shape its head. This step is crucial in giving your drawing an endearing look while also defining the breed characteristics of a beagle. In this section, we will discuss how to curve eyebrows above each eye and design floppy ears that are characteristic of beagles.

Designing Floppy Ears Characteristic of Beagles

The next step in shaping your beagle puppy’s head is designing their adorable floppy ears. To do this, start by extending two lines from either side of their head near where you drew the eyebrows earlier; these lines should slope downwards at a slight angle before curving back up towards their cheeks.

  • Length: Keep in mind that beagles have relatively long ears compared to other dog breeds – they typically reach around halfway down their necks when relaxed.
  • Curl: As you sketch out the bottom part of each ear, add a subtle curl or wave-like pattern to give them some texture and dimensionality without making them appear too stiff or rigid.
  • Fur Detail: Add short strokes along the edges using light pressure to create the appearance of fur. This will give your drawing a more realistic touch and help to distinguish the ears from other parts of their head.

Once you have drawn both floppy ears, take a step back and evaluate how they look in relation to the rest of your beagle puppy’s face. If necessary, make any adjustments or refinements until you are satisfied with their overall shape and size.

In this section, we have covered how to draw eyebrows above each eye and design floppy ears that are characteristic of beagles. By following these steps carefully, you can successfully shape your beagle puppy’s head while also capturing its endearing features and breed-specific traits. In the next section, we will discuss crafting your beagle puppy’s body using simple shapes like rectangles or ovals connected together with curved lines.

Key Takeaway: 

Learn how to draw a beagle puppy with ease by shaping its head and designing floppy ears that are characteristic of the breed. Draw gentle curves above each eye for expressive eyebrows, while extending two lines from either side of their head near where you drew the eyebrows earlier; these lines should slope downwards at a slight angle before curving back up towards their cheeks to create adorable floppy ears.

Crafting Your Beagle Puppy’s Body

Once you have completed your beagle puppy’s face and head, move on to crafting its body using simple shapes like rectangles or ovals connected together with curved lines. Keep proportions in mind so that your pup appears balanced and true-to-life without losing any cuteness factor. In this section, we will discuss the use of basic shapes to build body structure and ensuring proper proportions between body parts.

Using Basic Shapes to Build Body Structure

To create a realistic yet adorable beagle puppy drawing, start by sketching an oval shape for the chest area just below the head. Next, draw a slightly larger oval beneath it for the hindquarters of your pup. Connect these two ovals with gentle curves on either side to form the back and belly of your beagle puppy (source). This technique allows you to establish a solid foundation for adding details later while maintaining simplicity throughout the process.

Ensuring Proper Proportions Between Body Parts

  • Chest: The chest should appear broad but not overly large compared to other body parts; it should also sit higher than their hindquarters when viewed from profile angles.
  • Hindquarters: As mentioned earlier, ensure that this area is slightly larger than their chest – this helps provide balance within our artwork while still adhering closely towards breed standards typical among hound dogs such as short limbs paired alongside sturdy paws perfect for digging holes outdoors.
  • Tail: A beagle puppy’s tail should extend from its hindquarters at approximately one-third up its backside before curving gently upwards (source). Make sure to maintain the right length and curvature for an accurate representation of this breed.
  • Legs: The legs should be short but sturdy, with front legs positioned slightly wider apart than their hind counterparts. This stance gives your beagle puppy a strong foundation while also showcasing its natural hunting instincts.

By paying close attention to these proportions and using basic shapes as building blocks, you can create a captivating drawing that showcases the unique features of a beagle puppy without sacrificing any cuteness factor.

Key Takeaway: 

Learn how to draw a beagle puppy easily by using basic shapes like ovals and rectangles connected with gentle curves. Pay attention to proportions, such as the broad but not overly large chest and short yet sturdy legs positioned wider apart in front. By following these tips, you can create an adorable drawing that showcases the unique features of this breed without sacrificing cuteness factor.

Drawing Front Legs of Your Beagle Puppy

When it comes to drawing a beagle puppy, the front legs play an essential role in capturing the breed’s characteristics and adding stability to your artwork. In this section, we will discuss how to depict accurate leg length based on breed standards and include strong paws for a realistic touch.

Depicting Accurate Leg Length Based on Breed Standards

The first step in drawing your beagle puppy’s front legs is understanding the appropriate length for this particular breed. Beagles are known for their short limbs that give them a sturdy appearance. To achieve this look, start by sketching two lines extending down from the body at an angle towards each other. The distance between these lines should be slightly shorter than half of your pup’s body height.

Next, create another set of parallel lines below these initial ones to represent the lower part of their legs. These should also slant inward but not as much as those above them; they’ll eventually connect with the upper portion when you draw in their paws later on.

Including Strong Paws for a Realistic Touch

Now that you have established proper leg proportions let’s focus on adding strong paws characteristic of hound dogs like beagles who love digging holes outdoors. Begin by sketching small ovals at each end where both sets meet – these will serve as guides when creating individual toes within our next steps:

  1. Toes: Draw four smaller ovals overlapping one another along with each paw guide; make sure they’re evenly spaced out while varying sizes slightly so no two appear identical.
  2. Paw pads: Add round shapes beneath every toe representing soft cushions found underfoot among canines; this detail helps emphasize their strong yet gentle nature when interacting with various surfaces during playtime or exploration.
  3. Nails: Complete your beagle puppy’s paws by sketching curved lines at the tip of each toe to represent nails. This final touch adds realism and showcases the breed’s ability to dig effectively in search of prey or simply for fun.

Incorporating accurate leg length and sturdy paws into your drawing will not only make it more visually appealing but also help viewers recognize the specific breed you’re depicting. By following these tips, you can create a realistic portrayal of an adored beagle pup.

Key Takeaway: 

Learn how to draw a beagle puppy by focusing on the front legs and paws. Depict accurate leg length based on breed standards, including strong paws for a realistic touch that emphasizes their ability to dig effectively in search of prey or simply for fun.

Finishing Touches on Your Beagle Puppy Drawing

As you complete your beagle puppy drawing, it’s time to add the final touches that will make your artwork stand out while also making it easy for viewers to recognize this lovable breed. In this section, we’ll discuss adding a heart shape for extra cuteness and including a curled-up tail characteristic of beagles.

Adding a Heart Shape for Extra Cuteness

To symbolize love and affection in your beagle puppy drawing, consider adding a small heart shape at the top of its head. This can either be drawn as an outline or filled in with color. The addition of the heart not only adds charm but also showcases the endearing nature of these dogs.

  1. Select an appropriate location on your drawing where you’d like to place the heart – usually near one ear or between both ears works well.
  2. Create two equal-sized circles side by side with their edges touching each other slightly; these will serve as guides for shaping our heart later on.
  3. Add V-shaped lines below each circle connecting them together at their bottom points – this forms the base part of our loving symbol.
  4. Erase any unnecessary guidelines within those shapes so they become one cohesive unit resembling an adorable little emblem representing pure adoration towards all things canine-related.

Including a Curled-Up Tail Characteristic of Beagles

A key feature that distinguishes beagles from other breeds is their unique curled-up tail. To draw this accurately, follow these simple steps:

  • Start by sketching a curved line that extends from the base of your beagle puppy’s back, moving upwards and slightly to one side.
  • Next, draw another curved line parallel to the first one but with a slight gap between them. This will create the thickness of the tail.
  • Connect both lines at their ends using a rounded tip for added realism – this should give you an accurate representation of how these dogs’ tails typically appear when they’re happy or excited.

Beagles are known for their playful nature and loving personalities, so incorporating these finishing touches into your drawing will truly capture their essence. By adding a heart shape and curled-up tail to your artwork, you’ll not only enhance its overall appearance but also showcase what makes this breed so special among dog lovers everywhere.

Key Takeaway: 

To make your beagle puppy drawing stand out, add a heart shape on top of its head and a curled-up tail. The heart symbolizes love and affection while the unique curled-up tail is characteristic of beagles. These finishing touches will capture the essence of this playful breed and showcase what makes them special among dog lovers everywhere.
