Hello fellow beagle owners!! I walk my puppy 3 times a day for about 10-15 minutes each and he is still full of energy. should I be walking him longer or going on more walks?

Walking will never tire out a dog. You need to exercise his body AND his mind. Do several short (10 minute) obedience sessions each day. Make puzzles that he needs to figure out. EX: Put some kibble in plastic bottle and let him work at getting it out. Put a treat under his bowl and let him figure out how to turn the bowl over. Hide some treats and let him sniff them out. Work his nose.

For physical exercise, make a flirt pole. You can google that. I made mine from a horse buggy whip (tractor supply), a leather shoe lace and an old toy. That will tire him out more than any walk ever could.
