Mini Fox Beagle Activity Requirements

Miniature Fox Beagles are small, fun-loving, and energetic. They are smart, but can be challenging to train, so it’s a good idea to start training early. Due to their small size, they can burn a lot of energy very quickly, so they will need regular opportunities for play and exercise. A daily walk or short jog is a great way to burn off some excess energy. While they can be lively companions, they are generally good with other pets and kids. However, they can be barkers, so they may not be the best match for apartment living.
