At about 12 years old, Jake the beagle has mastered the art of winning hearts; whether you're a lifelong dog lover, or someone who swore you weren’t a “dog person.” Jake has the personality to win anyone over (just ask his mom, who’s now fully converted into a Jake person).
Jake’s a familiar face around the neighborhood, stopping on every walk to greet passersby with his signature sweetness. Though he has a few canine pals, his true passion is people; especially if they happen to offer a belly rub or a treat. Don’t let his age fool you. Jake still enjoys a good sniff around the yard, where he loves wandering around. Inside, he could be part beagle, part cat: independent yet incredibly affectionate. He shadows his mom from room to room and has a bed in nearly all of them. Evenings are for couch snuggles, where he curls up beside his humans like a warm, furry blanket. His quirkiest move? What his family lovingly calls “prairie dogging.” This is when Jake stands on his hind legs to ask (politely of course) for something he wants. And, let’s be honest, he usually gets it.
Despite his gentle spirit, Jake holds firm opinions; namely, he does not like the UPS truck. But otherwise, he’s a mellow, loving soul who’s happiest around his people. Jake may be a little older, but with his kind eyes, quiet devotion, and special charm, he’s a legend to those who know him.
