Millie (No picture)
My name is Millie and I was a doggie without a home, but I made my way from TN to NJ and there was taken in by a nice Foster Family till my adoptive family came to pick me up on 12/22/06. I was home for Christmas. I met my new Mom and Dad and, 2 little girls Laura and Emma, that love me more than anything in the world. Now my new family has a cat that lives with us too, but she is old and cranky and I leave her alone, which for a dog is OK by me. I have a yard to play in, my Dad takes me for my nightly walk, and after the girls go to bed, my Mom pulls out my stuffed bunny and we play keep away. They say I am the best dog in the world, and that SOS Beagle Rescue picked out the newest member of the family almost better than they could have. After I got to NJ my family took me to the Vet for a once over, and Dr. Mark pronounced me a beautiful dog, that had good treatment at the rescue and that I was very smart. I love it here in NJ and this summer when my family goes on their vacation to the shore, they have made arrangements so that I can go to the shore too. Not bad for a TN Girl. Love to all who helped care for me.

Sammi Girl
I'm typing this message with one hand and having a difficult time doing it. In my other hand is the most preposterous looking dog toy and at the opposite end of it a super sweet beagle bursting with energy and having a grand time in her new home.
Rudy and Sammi girl are getting along quite well (see the photo), although once in a while Rudy has to let "the rookie" know who's the boss (besides Tony Danza -- pardon the bad joke).
She's met most of the neighbors already and saw her first horse yesterday. I don't think she knows what to make of it. (Really big dog?)
Anyway, just wanted to let you know she's doing well and wanted to thank you for doing what you do and being responsible for bringing this floppy-eared angel into our home. Cheers!

Murphy
Hi this is the McIlvaine family. We are the family that adopted Murphy in October. He's really doing fine. He loves it here. Here are some pictures of Murphy. He is really doing good. He has very few accidents in the house only when I am not home.
He takes long walks every day and loves to run in the yard. (And chases the squirrels!) My daughter has been teaching him tricks like sit and gives you his pawl. He just learned to roll over on command today. He really is a smart dog and has quite a few bones hidden around the house.

Faith
Faith was adopted in Nov. of 2008 from SOS Beagles. We wanted to adopt a “puppy” no more than 1 year old until we met 2 ½ year old Faith who wasn’t even supposed to be there until the next day. By fate, she was surrendered a day earlier than expected! Faith didn’t even have a chance to get posted on the website when we fell in love with her! She was so sweet and loving and knew she was for us. We got her home the following week and she has become the center of our world! She greets us each morning with whimpers and kisses...she's a perfect fit!
Faith has also helped us fill a huge hole in our heart. We lost our 1ast beagle, Mariah to cancer. Because of Mariah…we fell in love with beagles. We thought we’d never get over the heartache but having Faith is bringing joy & laughter in our home once again! We just love our little girl!

Dylan
Since we brought Dylan home in March he has been doing great. We are so happy to report that he hasn't had any accidents and has graduated to a crate-free lifestyle.
When we first brought him into our family, we went a little overboard buying lots of dog toys. What a waste of money; his favorite toy turned out to be a knotted up old beach towel that he plays tug with. We have a daily "towel-time" ritual. He is doing a good job with commands and has recently added "bedtime" to his list of accomplishments. In fact, he likes his new doggy bed so much that he sleeps later than we do. We are continuing to work with him on the leash, but he has improved a lot since our first walk at Sue's when he pulled so hard that his front paws didn't touch the ground. He continues to be a quiet boy most of the time, unless he catches the scent of a squirrel or cat nearby, and he did wake himself up (and us) by howling in his sleep not too long ago. He gets along great with all of the neighborhood dogs, but we've noticed he is most playful when he meets another beagle.
