"Hi! We are bonded brothers, Jake and Jack! We don't have to go to the same home together, but we are sad when we are separated so we would prefer to be doggy brothers forever. We are so active and independent that we would not sit still for Caitlin until she had food in her hand. We have had no previous training but would love it if you could put us in doggy school and teach us manners. We both love getting as much attention as we can and will go right up to you! We are both patient, understanding, and talkative dogs (all great beagle traits) so we would fit right in most situations!"
Good With Cats: Yes but should be tested
Good With Dogs: Yes
Good With Kids: Yes
Energy Level: Medium
Potty-Trained: No to both

"I came to the shelter with a leg injury that required surgery, but I'm doing much better now! I was sleeping when Caitlin entered the cat haven but once she came up to me, I crawled right out of bed and began asking for attention. I am a talkative, affectionate (I love laps), patient, and lovable kitty. Please give me a safe place to call home, here!"
