Activities For Beagis
Prepare for unexpected vet bills
Introduction
When you adopt or buy a Beagi, you will quickly learn that it can take a lot of “out of the box” thinking to come up with an extensive activity plan. Beagis, which have parentage of Corgi and Beagle, love to have fun, hang out with their owners, play, and chase. They also like to take advantage of their stubborn nature and be independent pups who play by their own rules. While this attitude can be cute at first, it can wear your patience thin and takes the right activities and training to make it short-lived. If you want to have plenty of options up your sleeve for keeping your Beagi entertained, we have included a few options below.
Dog Park
One of the best free and hour-long activities on a sunny day with your Beagi is a trip to the dog park. Not only does it offer the opportunity for you both to get outside and enjoy the sunshine, but it helps your pup to learn from an early age that other dogs are friends, not threats. What’s more, there are plenty of options when it comes to the best dog park for your needs. You can opt for the more popular free variety, or throw a few dollars toward a trip to a dog fun park instead. For each of them, all you need is a leash, doggy waste bag, and a toy for them. They can then enjoy an hour of fun in the sun with you by their side!
Walk
One of the most effective and free activities for dogs to remain fit and healthy is with a walk. You don’t need any unique toys or tools, nor do you need a lot of time to spare or a particular facility. All you need is an hour, a leash, a waste bag, and, of course, your furry friend. A walk is an excellent sunny day activity because it enables you both to get outdoors, bond, and check out what your neighborhood has to offer. While you usually would drive everywhere and miss out on new additions to the area, you can slow down the pace, get that much-needed physical activity, and let your dog take in the kaleidoscope of sights and sounds on offer.
Obedience Training
All-weather obedience training is a significant activity for your Beagi because it’s one that you may come to find is very challenging. The earlier you can begin obedience training, the earlier your puppy turns into a mature and well-behaved dog. Both Corgis and Beagles are particularly stubborn breeds. They tend to like doing what they want, and can even be difficult to toilet train from a young age. If you aren’t able to get your Beagi to listen to you, or you’re struggling with those necessary commands, hour-long obedience training or puppy school sessions could be the answer.

Chew Toys
The weather isn’t always going to be good enough for a walk or a trip to the dog park, but it will be for chew toys. Whether you want to protect your footwear from immediate destruction, or you want to keep your Beagi’s mind active, you can do so with chew toys. You can purchase them from most pet stores and vet clinics for a reasonable price.
Swimming
Beagles take to water naturally, which is why you can assume that Beagis will as well. On a hot day when the sun is too intense for most other activities, why not treat your doggo to a dip? You can set up a pool in the backyard or head to a local and public watering hole. Arm yourself with a toy and a towel and your dog will have the time of their life.
Conclusion
It doesn’t take long to find out that a Beagi’s aim in life is to test you. However, if you arm yourself with the right activities, you can provide enough stimulation to stop them from thinking they’re boss! Take control, consider obedience training, and treat them to fun activities such as trips to the dog park, swimming, toys, and walks.
