My personality

My story

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

Hi I’m Creek! I am a sweet, gentle soul of a dog and I’m looking for a home that will understand my more sensitive personality and help me become a more confident boy. My foster mom says I’m the most un-beagle, beagle…except for my LOVE of rolling in the grass on walks and the occasional counter surfing. I am not a barker and will not chase bunnies, squirrels or other little critters. I could really care less about them. I’m not a digger and not interested in climbing over fences since I don’t have a strong prey drive. I love to go on walks and am super gentle and easy on the leash. I do GREAT in a car. I’ll just settle in and hang out. I’m a pretty low-key boy.

I do have fears that I’m working on and will need to continue in a patient and loving home. Loud and sudden noises and movements make me skittish. I am more comfortable around women (Hey…I’m a ladies’ man!) so would need an adult female to be my primary caretaker and if possible, would probably prefer to live in a female-only home. I do ok around more quiet, gentle type men but it takes me time to feel safe. I would do best in a home that has lower energy with no small kids running around and with someone home most of the time.

I sleep in my own big dog bed next to my foster mom’s side of the bed and I am good sleeper even a bit of a snorer. I sleep so soundly at night that the next morning I do my yoga stretches (downward dog, upward dog) several times to get ready for our morning walk. I am totally game for sleeping in if that’s your thing. I won’t wake you up to feed me or walk me.

I go to doggy daycare several times a week and do just fine. I’m not bothered by other dogs and will be the submissive one in the relationship. However, if I get together with another Beagle friend I LOVE to play and run around. I would really enjoy having a Beagle sibling that can help me with my confidence and be my playmate.

If you are looking for a low-key pooch with a big, big heart I just might be your guy! My foster mom would be happy tell you more about my adorableness.
