Oreo was very frightened when I first got him back in July. He's still timid but has improved by leaps and bounds.
I think the best thing to do is establish a regular routine in terms of walks, feeding, playtime, bedtime, etc. Once he gets a jist of the routine, he'll thrive off it.
Another thing, as it is with all Beagles (and all dogs in general, I guess) is FOOD. Do you have a KONG for him? I've found that stuffing a KONG and letting him go to town on it has really helped Oreo. Nothing more wonderful that seeing your dog's tail go crazy as you're about to give him some food.
Good luck, you'll be great!
