Change infobox image
[edit]I think File:Beagle on a leash.jpg would be a better image for the infobox, with a better angle and better resolution. Could the Alt also be "Image of a Beagle on a leash, identified primarily with a white stripe running across their head down to their nose, with a brown torso, white legs, and a black back."?Lallint⟫⟫⟫Talk 20:14, 18 January 2022 (UTC)
- I think the current image is better, the side view, the stance, much better showing of the breed. - FlightTime (open channel) 20:22, 18 January 2022 (UTC)
- I disagree, the old one has been being used since March 8, 2004, and is low quality. Lallint⟫⟫⟫Talk 22:02, 18 January 2022 (UTC)
- I prefer the current photo for the infobox, it gives a better overall impression of the breed. Cavalryman (talk) 00:23, 19 January 2022 (UTC).

Their Name is a French Word
[edit]Their name may have derived from the French word “Be’Geule,” meaning “open throat,” referring to their distinctive baying or howling vocalizations while on the hunt. Find out at https://canine4u.com/beagle/ BR252 (talk) 18:25, 12 February 2024 (UTC)
Olde English Pocket Beagles
[edit]Pocket Beagles need their own page. They are not recognized by the AKC because they have their own registry. This doesn't mean they aren't real B beagles. Pocket beagles are defined as pure bred beagles that do not exceed 11" in height and weight under 20lbs 206.55.104.19 (talk) 21:14, 21 August 2024 (UTC)
