For
Bea: The Story of the Beagle Who Changed My Life by Kristin Von Kreisler, Jeffrey Moussaieff Masson
Book Description: Harried from recent changes in her life, the last
thing Kristin von Kreisler needed was another dog. But when she came upon
Bea, a scrawny beagle abandoned by the roadside, she couldn't turn her
away. Bea became part of her family, and changed it forever.
Disheveled, malnourished, and terrified of human contact, for months
Bea seemed damaged beyond repair. But gradually, she began to trust von
Kreisler. After resisting her touch again and again, the dog one day leaned
in and nuzzled von Kreisler's neck. From that moment, Bea began to give
love as well as receive it. With the typically unforgettable personality
of a beagle, over the next decade and a half she taught von Kreisler the
value of living utterly in the present, of meeting each day with a good
bark, of going on in life without being dragged down by past grief.
Written with rare eloquence and down-to-earth wit, this memoir of Bea
and von Kreisler's 15-year love story will charm "beaglers" and touch the
heart of anyone who's ever loved a dog. Bibliography.

Training
Your Beagle (Training Your Dog Series) by Kristine Kraeuter
Book Description: These cheerful canines have been trained as hunters since the dawn
of history, but they also make affectionate house pets. Here's everything
the neophyte owner needs to know about the Beagle and its traits. Training
Your Dog books teach ordinary non-expert dog owners how to train their
own pets. Virtually every aspect of training is covered, with special focus
on the distinctive traits of individual breeds. Dog owners are instructed
on humane but effective methods of housebreaking and paper training, obedience
training, teaching the dog to respond to verbal commands and hand signals,
walking on a leash, and more. Also covered are methods of correcting bad
habits such as begging, unwanted barking, and showing hostile behavior.
There are many instructive, full-color photos in each book.
