We teach socialization from birth and on. Sittting
your pup and discouraging jumping helps your dog and your visitors comfort.

Beagles need to learn come right away we start at 4 weeks old learning greeting behaviors.

At 6 weeks the puppies learn to follow we teach the word come at this stage by tapping the ground and calling come with lots of praise and cuddling for their achievement.

Potty training is a little slower in Beagles than in some other breeds. Having a sandy area only for eliminating teaches them this is their place. We use sand as it is a texture they can quickly learn that is differant than play areas.

Placing bm's they have accidently had in other places to the correct area you wish will help the pup associate eliminating to this spot. It speeds up the potty training process.

Praise by using baby talk to your dog instantly after they have performed the task intended along with lots of petting and treats enforce the behavior to do it correctly again.
