we had got him on march 13, 2010. hes a beagle

Training pre-yearlings with Mushing Magazine sled dogs.

Ok, so I have a puggle puppy (he is a mix of a pug and a beagle), he is about 10-11 months old, we went camping this week but it was hard for him to deal with, I need help training him not to run away when not on a leash and how to stay on his own bed instead of jumping up on to mine, and also not to bark when we leave the house. I want to be about to trust him to not run away from me and my parents are wanting to get rid of him, but I don’t want to. PLEASE HELP ME!!!

I have an adorable 5 month beagle and I just got a new job that will require me to leave the puppy alone in the house for 8 hours at a time. I think I’ve thought of a solution but I just wanted to get some feedback. I have a large, unfenced yard so I thought I would put my puppy into a really large crate outside in the shade with his food, water, and toys. That way, he will not have to hold it in for 8 hours, he will be outside, and he will not be able to get away. What do you guys think?

Thanks!

We have a six month old beagle mix puppy. We have had her home since she was 8 weeks old. We followed the books and took her out frequently, rewarded her when she went and ignored her when she had accidents. That did not work. We crate trained her. We found she would go all over herself. We tried that for a long time, and it did not work. We tried putting her in the crate only when we could not watch her and continued taking her out almost hourly. She will go outside use the bathroom, walk through the front door and go in the floor!! I am starting to think she is unable to be trained and that maybe beagle puppies are better left outside, or as hunting dogs. We have basically given up on her being a house dog and have built her a dog house outside in fenced area. Does anyone have any suggestions before we give up and leave her outside. Also, we move her into a garage at night to keep her out of the elements at night.
