Do I need a licence to advertise puppies?
In England you need a dog breeding licence from your council if you breed three or more litters in 12 months or breed and sell dogs as a business, and Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland have their own schemes. Licensed breeders show their licence number and issuing council on every advert. Puppies must be at least eight weeks old before they go to new homes.
Is my listing already here?
We add licensed breeders from councils' public registers. Search for your kennel name; if it is listed you can claim it and edit everything.
Buying a Beagle puppy
Beagle puppies for sale
Beagle breeders across the UK list their litters here, but a listing is not an endorsement, so make your own checks before paying anything. Beagle Welfare's advice is to meet the puppies with their mother and to leave if the seller makes excuses for her absence. Ask for the parents' DNA results for the five conditions the RKC lists, and confirm them on the RKC Health Test Results Finder. Puppies should be at least eight weeks old before they leave and must be microchipped and registered by then. Expect a diet sheet, a signed pedigree and the RKC registration certificate. In England, anyone who breeds three or more litters in 12 months and sells any of the puppies, or runs a business breeding and advertising dogs for sale, needs a council licence. Beagle Welfare also warns that cheap puppies advertised online may have come from puppy farms.
Health tests to ask about
Health and testing
The Beagle is in Breed Watch Category 1: the RKC has not flagged any breed-specific concerns for show judges beyond what the breed standard already covers.
The RKC lists five DNA tests for the breed. Two, for Lafora's disease and NCCD, sit under Good Practice, the minimum it strongly recommends; three, for factor VII deficiency, IGS and MLS, sit under Best Practice, and responsible breeders are asked to complete all five. The Beagle Association explains that all five conditions are recessive, so a carrier does not develop the disease, and advises that carriers of Lafora's, NCCD, IGS or MLS are mated only to a clear dog. In brief: Lafora's is a metabolic disease that progresses slowly, leading to seizures and other neurological signs, often not visible until a dog is a few years old; NCCD causes a coordination problem within a few weeks of birth; MLS causes physical deformities and, in some dogs, early arthritis and seizures; IGS stops vitamin B12 being absorbed properly and is treated with regular injections; and factor VII deficiency, a clotting disorder, appears to be minor in most Beagles. The Association has also investigated epilepsy and steroid-responsive meningitis, neither of which is on the RKC's test list.
