My personality

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

I need to line up a new foster home for Peabody. I can't say enough about how brilliant this dog is-- I LOVED fostering him. He was so great with all my dogs and cats, he was incredibly affectionate and he was such a fun dog to take to the local dog park. I want him to land in a home where he will be walked everyday and it would be the best if he had a young female dog to play with as he loves the ladies. Potential adopters need to live in the Chicago area and you must have a fence at least 5 feet high as he has been known to jump a fence. My precious boy has waited over a year to find the perfect forever home and I just don't understand why. Please call Lisa at 630-694-1359 if you can help.

What a FUN PUPPY!!! I have had the pleasure of fostering Mr. Peabody for several weeks. He is so sweet and cuddily and he LOVES to play with other dogs and his new forever home will need to have some buddies for him to play with to keep him out of mischief. He seems to be more playful with females. Beagles are curious dogs and his little nose can get him into trouble and he also needs a home with a fence at least 5 feet tall. Mr. P has gone on road trips and has done well and he also was brilliant at the local dog park- he is the best dog!!!! Peabody was especially great meeting new dogs and super friendly with all the new people he met. I was so proud of him.

I would say Peabody is about 99% house trained and while he does not like the cage, he has settled down in his cage when I leave the house. I do allow him to sleep in bed and he is a great little companion if you want a dog to snuggle with at night. During TV time I say he is annoyingly affectionate-- he loves to put his head on your shoulder. I am only looking for a pet home in the Chicago area and whoever is lucky to adopt will have the bestest new forever friend. As a side note- he did start competing in a sport called Fast CAT- which is a 100 yard dash lure chase. HE LOVES IT!!! It would be so great if I could find him a home where he could continue with that sport or dog agility or nose works.


2-27-2023: Peabody was found as a stray in the Mt. Vernon, IL area and wound up at the Jefferson County shelter. He's a beagle mix and a cute one at that. He is about a year old and will need to be neutered. He is cat safe and playful with dogs. Best guess is he is about 25lbs.


Peabody will need a safe fenced in yard and would benefit from basic obedience and he would love a daily walk. Because he is food motivated and athletic, he would be a great dog for Agility, Nose Works and all around fun. He is going to make a wonderful family pet.
