I am a small scale breeder of AKC Beagles located in Illinois directly across from St. Louis, MO. First and foremost, I breed for Beagles that meet the AKC Standard for health, type and temperament. I breed specifically for something to show and add to my breeding program. What puppies do not "make the grade" for the show ring or to add to my breeding program are sold as pets to approved homes at 8 wks or later. I also have show quality puppies available occasionally. Health and temperament are guaranteed and I stand behind my puppies for their lifetime. Serious inquiries only, please. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at showbgls@sbcglobal.net I have included some information below on the Beagle that you may find interesting. |
