There are two strategies to choosing beagle dog names, aside from just picking a name you like. First of all, beagles are hounds, a dog typically used for hunting.
These small hunting dogs were used to track down foxes and sniff out their burrows and holes. They have keen noses, and they have a very distinctive howl, a general trait among hunting dogs. They also have never-ending appetites.
Many hunters have chosen beagle names based on these characteristics of the dog. Of course, there is another way to choose a beagle name. Many dog owners look for a cute name, one that matches the stature and personality of the dog.
For beagles, dog names are often chosen simply because they start with a “B”. An old children’s book, called Barney Beagle, made this trend especially popular. Of course, there is no written rule stating that you have to choose a name for either reason. Perhaps you want a beagle name that reflects the smallness of the dog or you simply have a preferred name.
On the other hand, you probably have no idea at all what you want to name your puppy, or you wouldn’t be searching for answers. Below is a list of suggestions you can start with, so take a look and have fun!
