Beagle

Caring in Malaysia

• The short tricolour coat suits local weather, but Beagles need a cool indoor resting spot, fresh water and walks only in the early morning or evening.
• Brush the short coat once or twice weekly and clean the long floppy ears regularly, keeping them dry to avoid infection.
• Watch weight closely — obesity strains joints and discs; limping, stiffness, reluctance to move or a hunched back means see a vet promptly.
