Adopt a Beagle
A simple, step-by-step path to your new best friend.
Our adoption donation(s) are as follows:
- Adults: $375.00
- Puppies (4 months – 12 months): $400.00
- Seniors (8 years and older): $250.00
- Seniors for Fosters: $200.00
This amount only partially covers the cost of veterinary care, boarding fees, and other miscellaneous expenses involved in the temporary care and adoption of our dogs and is tax deductible. Prior to placement, all Beagles, Beagle mixes and friends of Beagles will be spayed or neutered, vaccinations will be updated if needed, medical treatment will be given if needed, and they are microchipped and registered. If not, arrangements will be made on an individual basis. Special consideration may be given to those willing to adopt older dogs, duos, or dogs with chronic medical problems.

How do I start?
How do I start?
Before meeting any of our Beagles, all potential adopters are required to complete an adoption application. This helps us understand your lifestyle, experience with pets, and the type of environment you can provide. The application is a crucial step in determining compatibility between you and our Beagles.

Once we receive your completed application, a member of our team will reach out to conduct a thorough interview. This conversation allows us to learn more about you, address any questions you may have, and ensure that you are fully prepared for the responsibilities of pet ownership.
What’s involved in the home visit?
What’s involved in the home visit?
A home check is mandatory for all potential adopters. This visit ensures that your home environment is safe and suitable for a Beagle, and it helps us confirm that both the dog and the family will thrive together. We may offer suggestions to create an even more dog-friendly space, if necessary. Virtual home visits can be arranged.

How is the final adoption decision made?
Bean’s Beagles Dog Rescue is committed to the well-being of our dogs. We reserve the right to deny any adoption application at our discretion, without the obligation to disclose specific reasons. Our decisions are based solely on what we believe is in the best interest of each individual Beagle.
Foster a Beagle
Open your home for a few weeks and help a beagle get ready for their forever family.
Why foster?
- We handle all veterinary care, medications if needed, and all beagles are updated on vaccinations (rabies, DHPP, bordetella) upon intake.
- Fosters are provided with all supplies needed such as a crate, bed, collar, leash, name tag, food, toys, food and water bowls, and any medications if needed. Ongoing supplies are provided while fostering.
- We place dogs that fit your home, schedule, kids, and other pets, with trainer support if needed.
- Fostering frees shelter space, reduces stress, teaches house manners, and speeds up adoption.
- Perfect if you can’t adopt (yet), however fosters do get the first right to adopt a beagle they are fostering if they so wish. However, we appreciate all fosters and understand if fostering is temporary.

FAQ:
- How long is a foster commitment? It varies but typically 2+ weeks, depending on the dog. You can give a beagle in boarding a “beagle bash” which is a two week break from the kennel and temporarily gives them a chance to relax, and for us to learn more about them. Or, you can foster until they are adopted which can be weeks to months, depending on the dog’s situation.
- What do I provide? A safe space, routine, and love. We help with vetting and essentials throughout the foster process.
- Can I adopt my foster? Yes, fosters DO get the first right to adopt a beagle if they so wish. Foster failing is common, but we understand if fostering is a temporary commitment, and appreciate the role all fosters play in the beagle’s journey to home.
