With a moderate energy level, Boggles require regular exercise to keep them happy and healthy. Daily walks and playtime will satisfy their activity needs without overwhelming the household. They adapt fairly well to apartment living, but they do appreciate having space to stretch their legs. While their barking tendency can be a bit higher than some breeds, this spirited vocalization is often just their way of expressing excitement or alerting you to something interesting.
Grooming a Boggle is fairly easy, as they only require monthly brushing to manage shedding. This means you can spend more quality time enjoying their playful antics instead of constantly worrying about their coat. When it comes to training, Boggles are intelligent and eager to please, which makes them quite trainable. With patience and positive reinforcement, you’ll find that they quickly grasp commands and tricks while forging a strong bond with you. If you’re searching for a lively and affectionate companion in Petland Lake St. Louis & Fenton, MO, the Boggle might just be the perfect breed for your family.

Living with a Boggle
History
This dog breed is a product of the beagle and the boxer dog breeds. The beagle was originally used as hunting animals and also for tracking purposes. In 1884, they were imported into America and were subsequently kept as pets.
The boxer dog was also a designer breed whose ancestors were the Brabant bullenbeisser and the bulldog. The boxer breed was brought into America in 1900 and it was recognized by the American Kennel Club in 1904.
Temperament
The Bogle dog breed is a playful and fun one. They could be lovely companions and love to be silly sometimes.
They adapt well to people and children if they are socialized at an early age however you should be sure to tell your children not to play with them when they are eating or fervently chewing at their favorite toy.
They are descendants of the boxer dog so they could be quite aggressive and rambunctious. They are quite loyal too and will stick to their owners no matter what.
Environment
The Bogle breed are big dogs and as such would be better off living in places with a lot of space else they’d be knocking things over. They would be more comfortable in a house with a yard that can afford them the space to run around.
Since they could be rambunctious, they are better off in homes with older children as they may not necessarily be able to deal with infants. They should, however, be supervised when around children. These dogs are not suitable for apartment living because they may just thrash the house before you get back.
They are jumpers too and so it would be best to keep them in a tall fenced yard lest they wander off.
Exercise
This breed of dogs descended from the beagle which was used as hunting dogs and this would mean they gleaned a bit from them. They require regular exercise and this would mean taking them for walks 30 to 45 minutes daily.
It would also mean letting them play in the yard or playing fetch with them. They are very energetic and you could let them do some dog sports or training. Keep them occupied and stimulated so they are in the right shape.
Grooming
The Bogle’s coat is quite thin so this means they’d need minimal grooming. Bathing them too often will strip them of their natural oils so reserve baths to when it is absolutely necessary. Brush their coats and use damp towels to wipe them down to reduce the amount of shedding.
Make regular appointments with the vet so as to keep them in good health. Brush their teeth regularly to reduce bacteria buildup and bad breath. Clean their ears and eyes too.
Our Bogle puppies for sale come from either USDA licensed commercial breeders or hobby breeders with no more than 5 breeding mothers. USDA licensed commercial breeders account for less than 20% of all breeders in the country.
The unregulated breeders who are selling outside of the USDA regulations and without a license are what we consider to be “Puppy Mills.” We are committed to offering Bogle puppies who will grow up to become important members of your family. We only purchase puppies from the very best sources, and we stand behind every puppy we sell.
