Beabulls are charming dogs that are a cross between a Beagle and Bulldog. They can make wonderful family pets provided you understand this hybrid breed and will take the time to properly train your new family member.
This mixed breed pet combines many of the best features of Beagles and Bulldogs in one happy, relaxed puppy. One key element of their personality that is common to both Beagles and Bulldogs, however, is a stubborn streak. This can be a wonderful personality trait, but it may make training your Beabull a bit difficult. These are intelligent dogs, though, and once she understands that you are the boss, she can quickly learn tricks and become quite the entertainer.
These compact dogs make wonderful family pets because they love children and are very patient with people who are elderly or have disabilities. They seem to have a keen understanding of the limitations and abilities of their human companions. Like a Beagle, your Beabull puppy will want to take a brisk walk every day and will likely keep her nose to the ground the entire way because of their natural tracking instinct. Once you’ve had a bit of play time or a walk with your Beabull, she will be content to display her bulldog tendencies by happily lounging for a few hours on the sofa.
Physically, the Beabull will have many of the features and colorings of a Beagle, but in a stockier version due to the Bulldog features. The hips of many Beabulls also resemble those of the Bulldog, meaning your Beabull puppy’s hind end may be a bit narrower than her front end. The amount of wrinkling on your Beabull’s face will vary, but they generally have a few attractive wrinkles without the excess wrinkling of Bulldogs that require extra skin care.
The Beabull’s coat is short but features a thick undercoat, so they do shed a lot. They will usually shed a bit year round, with more shedding in the spring. Brushing your Beabull every week with a good brush will help keep the fur off of your furniture. The size of Beabulls varies a good bit, so your Beabull puppy could be anywhere from 22 to 50 pounds when full grown. You can get a better idea of potential size by looking at both parents.
Finally, be aware that Beabulls are highly intelligent dogs and can be prone to destructive behavior when bored. They never mean any harm, but they may chew apart your shoes if you leave them unattended for long stretches of time without plenty of toys of their own. The urge to chew may settle down a bit after your Beabull is two years old, but you do need to provide chew toys to address his avid love of chewing.
These loving, gentle dogs can be ideal family pets when you remember to keep the upper hand. Firm control and plenty of attention are requirements for owning one of these rare, happy, healthy Beabull puppies!

I recently just got a beabull puppy. she is very active, very, very active. she likes to chew on everything in sight including me. she is very loving and a wonderful cuddler when she is sleepy. SHE IS GREAT! i recommend beabull puppies to anyone who needs a good dog.
My husband and I have a 5 month old beabull named Rudy. He is a really great dog and was easy to house train. We’re working through his teething – he does like to chew. Overall he is a really sweet dog!
My fiance and just got a 5 month old Beabull about a month ago, she is awesome. Loves to play but very stubborn and is having a hard time on walks, she loves to sprint and cant seem to walk nice, she is always pulling on the leash. Any suggestions? Other than that she is really sweet and fun to play with.
My boyfriend and I have an 18 week beabull and I must say that he had just brought pure joy into our home. We live in a very dog friendly condo and everyone melts upon sight. Cuddling is his number one thing however the puppy teething was a challenge especially for our poor fingers!! I suggest many, many, MANY toys! I call him a beagle on steroids because he loves to play with all dogs, fetch, etc. and has those almond shaped eyes we are suckers for. I would recommend this hybrid to anyone looking for a loving, smart, loyal companion.
My husband and I got a beabull a little over a year ago. I have had dogs my entire life and our beabull is by far my favorite. He has such a great personality – he LOVES to cuddle, has tons of energy and loves people and other dogs. He really is the most social dog I have ever owned. He knows which humans to be gentle with – like children and the elderly and which he can “rough house” with – like my husband. We do have to take him to doggie daycare every other day because he is so social and needs the exercise while we are at work. Yes, he is stubborn and SMART which can be a bad combination but he is so cute and funny he usually can get away with anything (from me). He was easy to train sit, stay and hold. For walks we use a “gentle leader” so he doesn’t pull and it works wonders!
Hello! My husband and I LOVE our Beabull!!! Her name is Bella and she’s 3 1/2 years old; we’ve had her since she was a puppy. She is attentive and loves to cuddle with us on the couch. She is active and requires a lot of attention — especially when we first get home from work. She loves long walks and LOVES her Kong toy. (We’ve tried “cheaper” toys, but she rips them apart in just a few minutes! For anyone with a Beabull, I recommend a Kong!) Bella is super friendly — especially with kids. Even if the neighborhood kids play a little rough with her (tug her ears or put their fingers near her face), she just licks them and plays! It’s wonderful to know we don’t ever have to worry about her nipping someone or getting into trouble. She is definitely the best dog I’ve ever had and we love her dearly! If you’re looking for a GREAT dog — get a Beabull!!!
Anyone know where there are beabull puppies for sale currently? I have searched the internet and have not found one page where there are puppies for sale.
We had a beabull in our home since he was only 8 weeks old. He was a year old last month and we had to re-home him due to an unusual aggression toward me. I have read other posts on other sites about this hybrid of a dog being a little unstable. At first, our dog was gentle, cuddled, playful, etc. and never hurt our other 2 dogs. He loved to wrestle and play. We trained him to obey commands but his stubborn streak got worse as he got older. We had not had him neutered yet and he was becoming increasingly aggressive about asserting his dominance. He would put his feet on the counters in the kitchen when we were not looking and chew up anything he could reach. He had toys all over the house. He had a big yard to run in. He was not a bored dog. He was a very smart dog. We taught him to “trade” when he’d take something we did not want him to have. He’d put down the item and get rewarded with a treat. One day, he stole a chicken bone off the table. I tried to do the “trade” with him and he dropped the bone. As soon as he had the treat, he reached up and grabbed my arm in his mouth. I yelled at him to release me and he grabbed the other arm in his jaws. I screamed but he would not release. I ripped my arm from his mouth and he had pierced a vein in my arm. Blood was everywhere. After being on a 10-day in-home quarantine, we were able to find him a home with a man that had an English Bulldog and was fully aware of the biting incident. This man has been working with him for 2 weeks now and says that 3 walks a day seems to wear him out. He has a lot of energy. I would NOT recommend this dog around children, disabled people or weak people. My husband is disabled and hated this dog due to his dominance control issues. He was not easy to train at all. We’ve been dog owners for YEARS and have wonderful success with our other pets. In fact, our little rat terrier used to always hide from our Beabull. Now, our rat terrier is finally happy again.
We also have a Beabull named Bella and she is going to be 11 months old. She is an absolute joy to the family and loves other dogs and people. Very smart dog that was easy to train. Yes they are stubborn and active dogs but as long as you set the rules they will follow. For the previous person go to RockinRPuppies.com, they have Beabulls for sale but they go very quick. These are great family pets and they want to please but they do require a lot of attention. I am also amazed at how little she barks…only when she is startled. If you are looking for mid sized dog that is ideal for a family and has all the great traits…BEABULLS should be a serious consideration!
We have 4 month Beabull and she is a nice dog. However we are struggling with potty training her. We have had her for 2 months and she still hasn’t gotten the hang of it. We have tried crate training and she peed and pooped in it. So we stopped crating and have her in a gated off area. We have the bells and ring them every time she goes out, but she won’t ring them. She pees and poops all over the tile floor. Then she proceeds to lick up her pee. Our vet told her the licking up of pee is a behavior problem. So we try and catch her before she does it. Anyone have any other ideas about how to train this puppy?
My greyhound is my life. If I didn’t have her, my mental health would suffer. We walk 2 miles most days of the week, which is good for us both mentally and physically. She pampers me with her cuddling. She’s sensitive to my emotions. She’s the reason I get out of bed when experiencing anxiety or depression.
Hi! Have a beabull.His name is Gus and is 7 months old. He is adorable. Everyone stops and wants to know what he is. Sooo social, but so hard to keep up with the chewing and jumping up on counters etc. He’ll chew anything in his sight…don’t turn your back for a second. We got ours from a breeder in Ohio. I know as soon as he learns some manners he will be a joy!! Adorable looking!
Me and my husband just got a beabull puppy a few days ago and he is great. I wasn’t really sure how he would be since bulldogs are lazy and beagles are crazy but he is a great mix of both. He runs around and plays and chews on us and his toys right before laying down and taking a 3hour nap. He is great in the car and loves to go on walks and is doing really good on the leash. He is also doing really good with house training. We really wanted a bulldog but they are very expensive and I wanted a dog who would be able to keep up with our 2 kids so he is the perfect dog for us and any family who can take the time to play with him. The only complaint we have is him using our fingers, toes, arm etc as chew toys but everything else makes up for it!
Hi! My boyfriend and I have an 11 month old beabull named Shooter! We have had him since he was 3 months old! He is very very very hyper but lovable! He loves to be outside and just has tons of energy, not really what we were expecting but he has just brought so much laughter and happiness into our lives! He has the most adorable face and the biggest personality I have ever seen in a dog! He loves to cuddle and be close to my boyfriend and myself. He is very stubborn and very smart whcih is a dangerous combination! He also has tantrums where he grunts and turns his back on us when he is mad at us! lol it is soo funnny! I could go on forever about him he is my little guy and i love him so much! We are thinking of getting another beabull in a year or so when Shooter has calmed down a little bit! Also Megan, a great place (where I got Shooter) is rockingrpuppies.com. They usually have Beabulls for sale every 3 months, there just have one left of the last litter. I was lucky to get Shooter, they had no puppies available but I called them and they had just had a litter! So keep checking back, and they are 950$ with air fare, first round of shots, and microchipped all included!
Hi Everyone, just bought a 3month old B.Bull yesterday and i have to say OMG it is one mouthy little tike, oh and he farts quite a bit, though that reminds me of my time in the Army (the good/fun times) I bought Mr. Seraph to help alliviate my PTSD symptoms. I have two children; both girls 3yro and a 8 month old, and they are utterly scared of the “Beast” because he is so nippy. While I try to train him and discourage his mouthyness i would appreciate any help or advice as to the future problems some of you have witnessed so i can be prepared, would be greatly appreciated. My baby boy is right here beside me right now and its funny because now that I think of it, my paranoia is at an all time low which is …… PHENOMINAL!!! he currently weighs about 10 pounds and is quite “Beagle” very energetic and loves the outdoors, the first few hours was leashed though after the first night I noticed that he bonded to me quite fast; he never leaves the side of me and when I call in urgency he is quite quick to respond, It took years for my Grandparents Geman Shepard to learn the same, its quite cool actually. I think I may start a Blog about K9′s and PTSD it’s amazing what these pooches can do to take your mind off the past and help you to focus on the future.
oh i love these dogs i have one myself
We have a 10 week old beabull that we’ve had for 2 weeks and it has been incredibly stressfull and rewarding. He came from a puppy mill and came with an upper respiratory infection. He’s getting over that now and spends a lot of time sleeping, but when he’s ready to play he’s hilarious. Someone else said theirs will get mad and grunt and turn his back, Fletcher is the same exact way! Poor guy just had to go through a week of two pills a day and boy does he hold a grudge! But he’s awesome. If we could just get his biting under control, life would be awesome- he’s never mean, just loving on us in a very painful way
An update on my previous post- I posted on October 5, 2011- Fletcher is now a year old and still an incredibly awesome dog! His mouthing curbed finally at about 4 or 5 months old. He’s still very stubborn and knows his commands but sometimes tends to decide when he wants to listen to them. He’s such a lovable guy and is now around 55lbs- very active and very lazy at the same time but super smart and super sweet. We adore our big baby!! Bad habits: begging for food to the point of jumping while I cook and pure nosiness and theft- always wants to chew what isn’t his but he doesnt seem to care about our shoes, just what’s in my purse or on the countertop!
