The information reveals precisely who the forefathers of the pet dog were, any <a href=\"https:\/\/iluvmybeagle.com\/common-beagle-health-problems-3\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">health problem<\/a> history and lifetime achievements, if they did something extraordinary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This system may not be useful if the original breeder is dishonest and gave the incorrect information in the papers. If your beagle puppy looks very different compared to what you anticipated, then another fool-proof method of inspecting if your beagle is pure-blooded is by getting a DNA test.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"DNA_Test\"><\/span>DNA Test<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want to be absolutely certain about the breed of your beagle then you can have his DNA checked. DNA screening can precisely identify the family of your beagle puppy and let you know where he originates from and whether he is purebred or a mixed breed. There are some DNA screening services offered online or you can just purchase a DIY DNA screening package from online platforms like Amazon and eBay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The DNA set will provide accurate details about the beagle\u2019s forefathers for as far as the grandest grandfather. It also provides the weight forecast of what your puppy is likely to weigh in the future as an adult.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Appearance_Indicators\"><\/span>Appearance Indicators<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>There is no doubt that the methods mentioned above are the most accurate and reliable in determining the breed of your beagle. They\u2019re scientifically tested and verified so there\u2019s no gap for any errors. However, not everyone is interested to go through such hassles of spending extra cash and getting a DNA test done, or driving for hours to find the original pedigree papers of their beagle. For this reason, we suggest you first take note of your pup\u2019s appearance and notice the signs that I\u2019m about to tell you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>First and foremost, the easiest indicator to identify a purebred beagle is by its <strong>white tail<\/strong>. Purebred beagles will always have a little white portion on their tail and all their <strong>paws will be white<\/strong> as well. The reason I\u2019ve called these the \u2018easiest\u2019 ways to find the truth is that it is very rare for a mixed breed beagle to have such features. These are unique traits of only the purebred puppies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Furthermore, and although this can also be present on mixed breeds, it is said that purebreds have <strong>large floppy ears<\/strong> that usually end below their face as compared to the other breeds and their legs are small compared to their bodies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Does_Breed_Matter\"><\/span>Does Breed Matter?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you do buy a beagle puppy and find out that he is not purebred, it does not really matter if you love him. Your beagle will remain caring and dedicated to you all his life, which is more crucial than him being a purebred. Lastly, over time, the heritage of your beagle will not make a difference so long as your fuzzy friend is healthy and content with you. And, regardless of whether your beagle is purebred or not, he will still be your good friend and buddy for life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Conclusion<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The only way to find out the breed of your beagle is via a DNA test, which is the most accurate and reliable. The second is examining its pedigree papers and finally, the easiest, is the visual indicators we\u2019ve mentioned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But still, we will emphasize on the fact that regardless of what the breed of your pup is, he\u2019ll love you in equally the same way as a purebred one. The only thing that matters is how much attention and time you are willing to give him for training and learning.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" ","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":403,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[25,24,23],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/iluvmybeagle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/purebred-beagle.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/iluvmybeagle.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/401"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/iluvmybeagle.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/iluvmybeagle.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iluvmybeagle.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iluvmybeagle.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=401"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/iluvmybeagle.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/401\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2864,"href":"https:\/\/iluvmybeagle.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/401\/revisions\/2864"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iluvmybeagle.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/403"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/iluvmybeagle.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=401"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iluvmybeagle.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=401"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iluvmybeagle.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=401"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
