DD, your family''s beagle sounds so sweet, they are such smart doggies. I just wanted to mention that dogs should never eat grapes, something about the skin does not bode well for their intestinal tract. Just an FYI for all dog owners! I was first told this by our obedience instructor and checked it out online and it''s definitely a no-no to give them grapes.Date: 7/27/2007 4:02:18 PM

Awwww......such a cutie! My family had a beagle named Belle when I was growing up. She lived to be about 13 years old and died peacefully in her sleep. She was a wonderful dog for our family and was very intelligent. She could do all sorts of tricks - sit, sit pretty, roll over, play dead, fetch, etc. She also loved food - she''d eat anything - hair, paper, carpet, grapes, anything! My sister has a 5 month old beagle right now and she a ball of love - but she is hyper, especially compared to the pugs.
As far as the food is concerned I''d probably add kibble to people food, reducing the people food and increasing the kibble a bit each day. Eventually she''ll get it. Good luck and post some more pics of that cuteness!

Thanks for the heads up on the grapes - we didn''t realize that until after the grape-eating incident, and she was okay. We''d never feed our animals something that we knew was harmful!Date: 7/27/2007 10:06:18 PM

I had to childproof our cabinets with those little plastic thingies because our little Daisy figured out how to open them and pull out food, papers, anything she could drag around or eat. I was constantly chasing her around pulling whatever she had out of her mouth the first few months we had her! We calll her crazy Daisy!
