Before her death at 16 years old I had a beagle named Moggie. Beagles as a breed tend to wander off if they can find a way. I had a fully fenced yard, and once left her alone in the yard only to return a short while before she had dug a hole fully under the fence. After that I never let her outside alone. I walked her four times a day on workdays and more when having a day off. She got plenty of good exercise. As a hound she had a keen sense of smell and good hearing. When anyone approached the house she let you know before they reached the door. We never faced a situation when she might have had to become aggressive. She was good natured, but she barked at anyone approaching the house until I told her to stop. I slept better then.
