Hare-Raiser Beagles
Meet the breeder
I'm Jan W., the breeder behind Hare-Raiser Beagles located in Maurertown, VA. My dogs are bred for health and temperament with a focus on intelligence, trainability, athleticism, conformation, and ability to run a rabbit. My goal is to produce dogs that can compete in conformation shows, agility, and other performance events, while also making wonderful family and hunting companions.
Q. & A. with Jan
Why did you start breeding?
My first two beagles were from a reputable breeder and became conformation as well as agility champions. It seemed a natural progression of my passion for dogs.What makes your program special?
In addition to breeding for health, temperament, proper structure and type, I am also striving to keep the original purpose of the breed (rabbit hunting).Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and a kennel on my property.
