We responsibly breed happy, healthy, throughly healthy tested AKC Beagles and Basset Hounds for families to enjoy! In addition to breeding for intelligence, breed standards, and wonderful temperament. I also am a professional trainer and owner of Expert Dog Training & compete in the AKC for scent work.

Q. & A. with Brandi
Why did you start breeding?
I got into breeding after years of special consideration, & after discovering beagles were our family favorite breed, and adopting beagles with multiple genetic issues they could have been prevented, our hearts broke time and time again; until I finally decided I can’t put our family through this anymore and decided to invest my heart into breeding quality dogs for families to get to fully enjoy.
What makes your program special?
Our breeding program is special because we are a household of professional trainers with trainers always on site and handling the puppies. I have administrated over 12 dog training companies. I am a registered nurse as well, with extra courses in canine nutrition, dog cpr & first aide, and here they are well socialized to other dogs, children, & farm animals! I specialize/compete in scent work!
What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Beagle puppies include 13-inch and 15-inch sizes. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our Basset Hound puppies include red and white, lemon and white, and black brown and white. Beagle puppies include black tan and white, black and tan, and lemon and white. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

I had never gone through a breeder prior to speaking with Brandi at Mayberry Acres Beagles and Basset Hounds; she was very knowledgeable and responsive when it came answering questions and pairing me with my new best friend. I am beyond happy with my experience with her and would highly recommend Mayberry Acres to anyone out there looking for an opportunity to bring home a new addition to their family!
