These two groups have evolved over the past 300 years. American dogs today tend to be energetic and playful. Some even work as hunters. Unfortunately, America's swamps can make hunting difficult. Older breeds may be stubborn and difficult to train.

They can also learn to guard and be a watchdog.
Beagle
The Beagle is one of the oldest dog breeds in the world. Although the exact origin of the name is unknown, it is believed it comes from the Gaelic term beag (meaning "open mouth") or French word "beagle" ("meaning "little howl"), Beagles were most likely used for hare hunting in England during 1300. English gentlemen used one of their beagles to hunt in the 1500s. The diminutive size of the breed may also have contributed to its ability to be carried across rough fields.

The Weimaraner is a small, athletic, medium-sized dog with an elongated nose. Because they can jump fences and open doors, the Weimaraner is known to be an escape artist. Because of their independent nature, they are difficult to train and maintain. They are playful and affectionate, but they require regular exercise and training. They are typically between 55-70 pounds with males weighing up to 85 pounds.

General Richard Rowett brought the first American Beagles into the United States in 1870s. Rowett's dogs served to be the model for American-standard Beagles. The American Kennel Club had recognized the breed by 1884. The Beagle is the seventh most loved dog breed in the United States.
Temperament of the Weimaraner
American Weimaraners are playful and loyal. Although this breed is naturally friendly, it can also be alert, obedient, vigilant, and attentive. This breed is a great hunting and watchdog. These dogs are also highly intelligent and full of energy. However, their temperament does depend on their socialization and training.
