Why don't any of the answers regarding Pocket Beagles really address the true nature of the controversy?
It is false that Pocket Beagles "don't exist". The Beagle is a recognised AKA breed and has a breed standard of 15" and 13" inches. A new breed, the Olde English Pocket Beagle, bred carefully using only purebred Beagles of high quality and diminutive stature with a breed standard of 12" or below and ideally at "10 is emerging and going through the proper steps to be eventuallly recognized by the AKA. Another new breed, much more carelessly and controversially bred mostly from small Beagles with an outflux of Miniature Dachshund blood, the Queen Elizabeth Pocket Beagle, which can get extremely small, has also emerged. It is becoming very popular although the breeding process had many flaws and the dogs may be the next "puppy mill" victims, but the best specimens are fantastic dogs and it's a great shame that more care isn't being taken with them. Many homeless Beagles crossed with Dachshunds(Doxles) or other small breeds are available to adopt through "Beagle Rescues" or Pet Finders
"A new breed, the Olde English Pocket Beagle, bred carefully using only purebred Beagles of high quality and diminutive stature with a breed standard of 12" or below and ideally at "10 is emerging and going through the proper steps to be eventuallly recognized by the AKA."
I assume you're actually talking about AKC (not "AKA") recognition? When the Standard for 13" Beagles states "not exceeding 13 inches in height", and these breedings often produce Beagles 10" to 13" (see http://clubs.akc.org/NBC/NBC_FAQs.html#3. ), what is the point of creating another "variety" of smaller Beagle? I doubt this "dream" will come to fruition because these dogs ALREADY exist in form of the 13" Beagle, and there *is no functional purpose* for a "slightly smaller" Beagle! WHAT IS THE POINT?
"using only purebred Beagles of high quality and diminutive stature"
Highly unlikely that these dogs are of "high quality", as no breeder of good quality Beagles would contribute to this farce. Breeding only for small size (and marketability) is *not* an acceptable goal for a responsible breeder. Just like any other "market friendly" fad dog, so called "Pocket Beagles" are being created from poorly-bred dogs. Adding the pointless moniker of "Olde English" isn't going to make them any more legitimate!
tom l, are you around? What's your take on this?
