Thanks! I've had Beagles my whole life they are the best dogs. They are pretty high energy for a small dog so they do need a lot of room though. Pugs are really cute too. I've been considering getting a puggle. They are half beagle and half pug and are really cute too. They have a pug face and coloring with beagle ears:)

They probably feel more freedom in America because they have more rights.
