Canaan Dog

Standing at 19 to 24  inches at the shoulder, Canaan dogs are lean with bushy tails. They’re clever, confident, and territorial. This breed is known for having an endless supply of energy, making it a nice fit for hikers and runners. With this breed, early training and socialization are important as they can end up “owning” passive owners who don’t establish themselves as top dog in the family pack. However, with positive methods, Canaan dogs train wonderfully.

Beagle

An energetic hound that has an affinity for kids and family life, the lovable Beagle is a very vocal dog. It can carry out an entire canine conversation to the point of it being comical. This breed is small to medium but is able to keep up with others. Beagles tend to have a mischevious side as well, but in an endearing way.
