Autumn Oak Beagles, NY beagle breeder, beagle puppies

We're a small hobby breeder of AKC/UKC show and field Beagles, specializing in fine quality family companions. My only reason for planning a litter is to improve upon the next generation, to "better the breed". We never breed our dogs just to produce puppies to sell for profit - we breed for ourselves first and sell pups that do not fit into our breeding program! All of my litters are well planned out, taking into account how best each sire and dam compliment each other, allowing us to weed out faults & health issues.

Breeding goals here include, first and foremost, producing genetically sound, healthy, intelligent pups that make merry, reliable family companions. Our pups are specifically bred to retain field ability without having to sacrifice conformation (structure/beauty) in the process. Being comitted to quality, it's not unusual for us to spend months or years researching pedigrees and going through other reputable breeders with a fine tooth comb before adding on another hound potentially worthy of being bred. The welfare and happiness of my Beagles is my primary concern and I refuse to cut corners in any way. My hounds are all fed only the highest quality premium diets and raw foods. I firmly believe a pup's lifelong health is determined almost as much as the prenatal nutrition they recieve as it is with genetics. A healthy diet of fresh whole foods & the best commercial kibbles is the cornerstone of my breeding program, the strongest of foundations to build upon.

My Beagles are raised primarily as companions and valued (furry) members of my family. Both our adults & pups are home raised, with adults having free acces in and out of the yard ... where they usually spend most of their days. They either laze around sunning themselves on a beautiful summer day or have adventures in the "woods" behind my bushes. In the winter its a relay race free for all in the snow! They love the cold weather and I can go hoarse trying to call them in on a snowy day :) My hounds live a full life. They are all special and not just relegated to the "back forty" in a kennel ... they sleep next to us, are taken for indivigual walks and often meet new canine and human friends, they are played with and trained and showed love & affection. I take the same approach with every single puppy in every litter I breed - its no simple task but it makes all the difference in raising healthy, emotionally stable, loving pups!

We are located in a residential section of NYC, and are easily accessable from the tri-state area. Our pups are sold to only select, responsible homes - NEVER to pet stores, puppymills, brokers, etc. & we do reserve the right to refuse a sale. Written health guarantee is provided, and all pet quality pups are sold on a s/n contract.
