The gentle nature of Beagles is what we really love about the breed.
Our first Beagle was my wifes shadow after she had a kidney removed a few ago. She could only rest comfortably in my big brown recliner. Bama was her comforter and protector. He was always in her lap or on the floor next to her. While she was in the hospital, he was not himself. I believe he knew something was wrong.
Through both of my knee surgeries, Bama and Vinny showed a different behavior around me me while I recovered. They would come and lay down next to me when normally they would be off doing something else.
I have a chronic, recurring condition that is extremely painful. Last week I had an episode that was unusally tough. In the midst of my agony, Vinny came in and stood over me and just looked at me. He then decided to lay down as close to me as he could, and put his head on my leg. It was really quite a "kodak moment" one I will never forget.
I don't know how they do it, but they know when comfort and compassion are needed. We will always have a Beagle in our home. /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/smile.gif
