Bagle Hound Puppies for Sale

About the Bagle Hound

The Bagle Hound crosses the Beagle with the Basset Hound, combining two scent hounds into a low-slung, affectionate, and determined companion. These dogs are typically sturdy and long-bodied with short coats in classic hound colors, long ears, and a soulful expression. Bred from two pack hounds, they are usually friendly, easygoing, and good with children and other dogs, but they carry a powerful nose and an independent, food-motivated streak that makes recall and training a challenge. Bagle Hounds enjoy sniffing walks and moderate activity. Their long ears need cleaning, and their appetite means weight control is a real concern.

Every dog is an individual — genetics, socialization, health, training, and environment matter more than breed averages.

Where this breed shines

  • Friendly, easygoing, and good with children and dogs
  • Low grooming needs from the short coat
  • Merry, affectionate companion

Things to consider

  • Strong nose and independence make recall difficult
  • Very food-motivated; prone to weight gain
  • Long ears need regular cleaning to prevent infection

History

The Bagle Hound is a modern designer cross of two established scent hounds, developed for an amiable, family-friendly companion. It has no kennel-club standard and appears as a first-generation hybrid. Both the Beagle and the Basset Hound were bred in Britain and France to track game by scent in packs.

Temperament

These dogs are typically gentle, sociable, and merry, enjoying the company of people and other dogs. Their scent-hound heritage brings a strong nose, food motivation, and an independent streak that can look like stubbornness. Patient, reward-based training and secure fencing help manage their tendency to follow their nose.

Health considerations to discuss

Ear infections. Long, low-set hound ears trap moisture; routine cleaning is important.

Obesity. Both parents are food-driven; portion control protects the joints and back.

Intervertebral disc disease. The long-backed Basset build raises spinal risk; keeping the dog lean helps.
