We love to hear from stories from our adopters! Each one of these beagles touches our lives in a special way - hearing the "Happy Tails" makes everything we do worthwhile! Below are just a few examples of some of our happy beagle tails!
Read all of the Happy Tails by paging through them below (stories are listed from newest to oldest) or click on a name to go to a specific article.
Do you have your own Happy Tail story about adopting a B.O.N.E.S. beagle that you'd like to share? Please send it, along with any pictures, to happytails@bonesbeagles.org.
Riley has become such an important part of our family! It's only been about 3 months but we can't imagine what it would be like without him. He is such a little snuggler (a 37 pound lap dog)! Riley is also the loudest non-barking dog there ever was! The only time he even yips is when he is dreaming of chasing squirrels, but he snores up a storm! Riley loves to relax and "hang out" but he is always up for a long walk. He is our dog-walker's favorite client and always a hit with any company that comes over.
Riley loved attending the soccer games Shaun coached in the fall and I'm sure he's looking forward to lacrosse in the spring! Riley is our perfect little love but certainly not "too good to be true!" He has a mischievous streak and we have learned not to leave ANY food within his reach at any time! Riley could break into Fort Knox, as we have learned from his ability to get food out of zip-locked bags located in securely zippered backpacks. Riley has claimed our spare bedroom as his own. When the door is shut he just throws himself against it and climbs into "his" bed.
Riley can be very possessive and tries to hide his bones inside the house behind curtains, under the carpet etc. I think he's pretty happy having us around as well. Although if he had one complaint it would be that we get up too early! Riley would sleep until all hours of the day if we let him, and finds going out in the morning an inconvenience! Although inclement weather doesn't usually bother Riley (he finds snow rather tasty) he does not care to go out in the rain first thing in the morning. He has even turned right around and ran back in the house! He certainly does not lack in the personality department!
We can't thank everyone at B.O.N.E.S. enough for bringing Riley into our lives.
Best wishes, Merri, Shaun, and Riley
