Beagles have been around for hundreds of years, as early as the 1400s. Descended from hounds, these lovable companions make excellent housepets and hunting partners.
They have remained a popular breed over the years. As a tribute to this wonderful and well-loved breed, we put together a collection of memorable beagle quotes gathered from all over the internet.
These quotes are sometimes sentimental, sometimes funny, but always true.
1. “Snoopy didn’t start off being a beagle, it’s just that ‘beagle’ is a funny word. It is a funny word and our goofy Snoopy here fits it just fine.” — Charles M. Schulz
What better way to start off this article than with a quote from the famous creator of the Peanuts comics, Charles M. Schulz? His character Snoopy, the black and white dog that types novels atop his dog house, may well be the most famous beagle ever.
It turns out that the cartoonist created Snoopy based on a childhood pet. He elaborates: “I patterned Snoopy in appearance after a dog I had when I was about 13 years old. His name was Spike, and he looked a little bit like the original Snoopy. But Snoopy didn’t start off being a beagle. It’s just that ‘beagle’ is a funny word.”
We couldn’t have said it better ourselves, Charles.
2. “If it’s good enough for beagles, it’s good enough for me.” —Richard Littlejohn
