User added info
This breed should have a square head with long ears and minimal folds. They eyes should be slightly droopy. A deep chest is preferred and feet that tow out like the Basset Hound. The body is a little more compact like that of a Beagle with muscle mass covering the body.
Bagle Hounds tend to be an even mix of a Basset Hound and a Beagle. They are great hounds and will follow a scent no matter what. They are incredibly playful and social like a Beagle, but they tend to have a lazy side like the basset Hound. Any mix of Basset Hound and Beagle traits can be found in this mix. The Bagle Hound will less energetic than a Beagle but more than a Basset Hound and will have more energy during the hunt. They love games and enjoy doing task such as fetch and games of hide the ball. This breed will roam if let off leash due to its sense of smell. It may track for miles. They are sometimes stubborn and very intelligent. They are loyal and most listen well.
Some may be prone to epilepsy. They also may be prone to ear problems and could need cleaning at least once a week.
Special care needs to be given to this breeds ears. Moisture can settle in the ear canal causing an ear infection. This is due to the large, hanging ears of this breed. Most owners choose to use over the counter cleansers.
This hybrid was developed by rabbit hunters. They liked the Basset Hounds superior nose and the drive of the Beagle. They developed a slow tracking hound but with enough energy to finish the hunt.
Like most hound breeds, the Bagle Hound needs room to run and play. Beagles can be very active at times. The Bagle Hound can get bored with being indoors. They need long walks or a yard to play in for stimulation.

Buster is Bassett/ Beagle mix with floppy ears, spotted turned out feet and weighs 56 lbs. He has a deep bark and walks with his nose to the ground. He can smell the chemical changes in my husband who,s diabetic! When he sees my husband passing out or suffering an episode, he will attempt to wake him by any means. He's not trained but this came out of his bonding with my husband. We have had hi. Since he was weaned. His mother was a Bassett rescue and he was part of a good size litter. He's a great dog!

Name:
Gracie Ellen
Color:
tan, red and black
Description:
Gracie Ellen is a Bagle Hound that I found at Barktown Rescue in Bardstown, KY. When I got Gracie she was about 4 months old. Gracie is a very loving dog. She is playful and sometimes lazy. Bagels do not like to be kept inside all of the time. Gracie gets board in the winter months when she has to stay inside most of the time. Graice has a large fenced yard with numerous wild animals around. She loves to track them around the yard. Gracie is very well natured and has a lot of patience with my 2 year old grandson who gets a little ruff sometimes. She has never so much as growled at him. I highly recommend a Bagle for any family.

Name:
Sadie Maxine
Color:
red and white
Description:
I bought miss Sadie at a flea market when she was 8 weeks old, the lady that was selling her said that she was a full-blooded beagle and she had papers in hand to prove it. My family and I being avid rabbit hunters was so intrigued by this beautiful puppy. So we bought her, a months passed and her little ears kept getting longer and her legs shorter and her body much longer lol so I called the lady that had sold her and told her that I didnt think she was full-blooded and she finially told me that she also bred bassethounds. I told her I think Mr. Basset went and visited Miss Beagle, because I have myself a beautiful bagle, she offered to take her back, and I immediatly said No Way, shes perfect. So miss Sadie grew into a well formed bagle hound with the personailty of an angel. She is my sissy dog, angel face, thats what I call her when I love on her lol. She rolls over, loves car rides, loves running with my boy and also her purebred beagle best friend Tracker. She the perfect dog, lazy when i want to be and ready to go when i want. Shes my best friend. Bagles are the best.

Name:
Ben
Color:
chestnut and white
Description:
This is Ben, who I adopted from the Lexington, KY Humane Society last summer. He is approx. 40lbs, which the vet says is good, but was 20 lbs overweight when he came into the shelter and now has some arthritis in his hips. Being a stray, I believe he followed his nose and got himself lost from his original family, because he is the most loving dog! He is by far the best dog I have ever had, he loves to cuddle and even gets along with my cats. Our favorite thing to do is to walk in the woods (on leash) and track smells. He is always happy to see me, and sometimes is very vocal about it. I will say he does have a stubborn streak, and will get into any thing that smells edible if not supervised, so I Bagle proofed my house:-)

Rosie is so sweet! We only have had her a month, and she gets along well with our three cats and three-year-old. She loves tummy rubs, and will sit on her back legs when begging for treats. We call it "The Snoopy Pose".
