What to Know About Beagle Training in Milwaukee
Beagles are small, active companions that are perfect for adults and kiddos. They have a beautiful short coat with combinations of brown, white, and orange. And we can't forget those floppy soft ears that are so fun to rub! Beagles are from the hound family and were bred for hunting with a keen sense of smell and intuition. Today, in many areas of the world, these dogs are still being used for hunting small game like rabbits and birds. These intelligent dogs can also make great family pets, but beagle training in Milwaukee can take a lot of work. Because of their breeding history, they make for a unique breed of dog. There are a few things to know that will make training easier. Here are some helpful things to know about the breed:
- Beagles are typically motivated by positive reinforcement involving food, not praise.
- They are often tricky to house train, sometimes taking up to a year for complete training.
- Crate training can keep your dog safe and avoid unwanted behaviors like chewing on household items.
- Beagles are highly energetic and require sufficient amounts of enrichment and exercise.
- Their noses control their brains, so they are prone to distractions and wandering.
- Beagles are friendly and great with other dogs and people (including little kids), as long as you socialize them appropriately.
- They are pack dogs and do not like to be lonely, so they value the companionship of other pets and people.
- Beagles grow to be about 13–15 inches tall, weigh 18–30 pounds, and have a lifespan of about 10–15 years.

Beagle Training with Dog Training Elite
Whether you have a brand new puppy or a sweet old dog, training is essential to having a happy and easy life with your pup! Dog Training Elite can meet your beagle training needs with our many training classes and programs. Though our method works on any dog, these classes are great for the unique needs that a beagle might have.
Because beagles are easily distracted, taking them through an obedience course will help them learn the importance of listening to and obeying commands.
Beagles love socializing, and socialization is critical to having a well–mannered dog around other dogs, animals, and humans.
If you are bringing home a sweet big floppy–eared puppy, then training right away will be crucial in starting your new life together. Training can be done with older dogs but is always more manageable as a puppy. Our Puppy Essentials Webinar is a great way to get started.
Beagles are not usually aggressive dogs but get lonely and can experience separation anxiety. This class will benefit those beagles that howl and whine while you are away.
Beagles make excellent companions for military and retired vet individuals. This program will help train your beloved beagle to meet any of your military or veteran needs.
Because beagles are such an intelligent breed, training them to be therapy dogs or perform service tasks can be done relatively quickly. Many beagles go through this program and become great partners for humans in need.
Dog Training Elite is proud to offer training programs for your needs inside your home! We understand that beagles feel more comfortable in their own home and around their owners, so in–home classes are the perfect option.
Training your beagle can be hard work, but remember to have patience and trust that Dog Training Elite Milwaukee has your back. Beagles are a smart and intuitive breed, and they will thrive during training when you accommodate for their uniqueness. Schedule an in–home training assessment today to get started.
Our Balanced Theory
We base our training around the "Classical Conditioning" model (a.k.a. "Pavlovian" or "respondent conditioning"). This includes developing conditioned or automatic reflexes to commands. In its simplest form (after proper conditioning), when the owner says "sit," the dog automatically sits without thinking about it. Our unique techniques ensure our program is a success no matter what behavior we encounter.
