Wild Child

They say beagles get calmer as they get older, nope not Pearl.

She just turned 15 months old and Pearl’s been a handful lately. 

Pearl’s adorable, loveable, but she sometimes can be a hell raiser.

Sometimes I wonder what goes on in her beagle brain and why she gets into everything she sees.

You name it, She’s chewed on or wants to chew on it.

She destroyed our couch, torn up some of her toys, phones, quite a few pairs of my shoes, pens, pencils, walls, doors, quilts, chairs, pillows, blankets, 4 of my baseball hats, wall moldings, cardboard boxes, books, our living room shelves, her bedding, magazines, toilet paper, paper towels, clothing, 2 Wii sensor bars, router cords.

Pearl also loves to get on tables, steal food and dig holes in the back yard.

She has lots of chew toys, busy bones, bully rings, toys, but she seems to enjoy destroying my things more.

She can’t be bored. 

I take her for walks when I can, she plays fetch and tug of war with her toys often.

She has lots of toys to keep her busy.

Her favorite game lately: taking my things and running away as fast as she can with them.

Her other favorite game: When I bring her in from outside, she runs down the landing steps to the basement instead of going inside the house. 

She wants me to chase her and thinks that it’s a game.

Are all beagles like this at her age or is it just her.

Hopefully she can grow out of this hyper stage soon.
