Beagles are among the friendliest dogs around, but that doesn't mean they don't have a mischievous streak
0:06
Despite their happy-go-lucky natures, these little cuddle monsters can get themselves into trouble if you let them
0:13
So it's time to lay down a few ground rules. In today's video, we will look at a few do's and don'ts you need to remember as a beagle parent
0:22
Do put on a harness for all walks. The first habit you want to get into is using a harness
0:30
While you can certainly use a collar, this is not always the best approach
0:34
That's because when your beagle sees something interesting, say a cat or a squirrel
0:39
they will dash forward and the jerking motion of the leash on the collar will put all of the force on their neck
0:47
Yikes! This isn't a problem with harnesses, as it redistributes the force on your dog's stronger back
0:54
More harnesses will also have a handle on the back that you can grab quickly if necessary
0:58
Don't neglect your beagle's teeth. Statistically 80 of dogs over 3 years old develop one or the other dental issues You can get ahead of the curve by investing in a good canine toothbrush and canine toothpaste
1:15
On this note, I would like to mention our today's sponsor, and also a brand that we have been using for a while now, Bark Bright
1:23
Bark Bright is a monthly dental kit that uniquely pairs a triple enzyme toothpaste
1:28
with tasty chicken dental chews. If you've tried brushing your dog's teeth, you already know how difficult it is
1:36
Our beagles just won't stay still and keep running around. Bark Bright has solved this problem with its dental kit
1:43
consisting of a triple enzyme canine toothpaste and 30 dental sticks. Simply squeeze the toothpaste inside the dental stick groove and let your dog do what they do best, chew
1:55
The abrasion of the chew helps to further scrub those teethers clean
1:59
How amazing is this? This will help keep the dental problems at bay and will be one less health issue to worry about in the long run

2:28
This helps keep them in top physical condition. But as an added bonus, it ensures that your dog doesn't get bored inside the house
2:36
Without exercise, your beagle is much more likely to get into trouble, whether chewing on your shoes or chasing the cat around the house
2:46
Don't skip out on vet visits Beagles mature fast, almost overnight, so it's easy to take their health for granted
2:55
Despite this, they are prone to certain conditions as a breed, including hip dysplasia, arthritis, and more
3:03
Routine checkups will help you to catch any symptoms early on. An adult beagle needs at least one routine vet visit every six months until they are eight
3:14
After that, three times a year is going to be best. Do brush your dog regularly Brushing your beagle coat may just seem like a small thing to do but it is more important than you think brushing is an essential part of grooming regular brushing plays a crucial
3:32
role in maintaining a healthy coat so brush at least three times a week to remove dirt debris
3:38
and dead hair and keep their coat healthy don't punish your beagle punishment is never a good
3:47
idea. Your dog won't understand your anger and might even trust you less for it. The best approach
3:53
is positive reinforcement. And while it's slow, it's also simple and effective. Keep treats around
4:01
and whenever your dog does something that you like, reward them with a treat. For instance
4:06
if there's a shoe or a toy and your doggo chooses to chew on their toy, give them a treat. And if
4:12
If they go for the shoe, gently say no, redirect them to a toy, and take away the shoe
4:19
Trust me, it works like a charm. You just need to be consistent
