Beagle Dog Name -
rescue, rescues
Though the exact origin of the breed is unknown, it has definitely been around people for a few centuries. The breed was probably called so after the word “begele,” which means “small.” Another version claims that these dogs are named so because of the French word "begle" meaning "useless or of little value." Generally, this is one of the oldest breeds. Similar-looking dogs are described in documents dating back to 400 B.C. These small hounds became popular with the British monarchy in the 1300 and 1400's, because hunters could follow them on foot.
