Edward (the) Beagle Baskette (August 27th, 2003 - December 9th, 2022) was a renowned beagle, most notable for his appetite, longevity, and single-minded focus on his nose.



Early Life
Ed Beagle was born as the smallest of a large litter of pure-bread beagles in Milton, VT. Due to his unassuming nature, he was initially overlooked on the misguided notion that he was unsuited for use as a hunting hound. He was the last of his litter to be adopted. However, when he was eventually adopted, his new owner was so eager to have him, that she snuck onto the property at night and snatched him to his new home, causing his breeders to believe he had been dognapped.

Once at his new home, he grew quickly and became nearly impossible to contain. Frequently, a posse armed with bits of ham needed to be formed to search and corral the beast when he escaped into the woods. Such searches occasionally lasted for multiple days before the hound could be located. As a small pup, he would periodically catch the eye of a bird of prey looking for a meal, but always managed to avoid a grizzly end.

Faithful, loyal, and kind-hearted, he spent most of his days recharging in a sunbeam, or snoring on a couch, preparing for his next excursion.

Marriage and children
Ed was known to have several lovers over the years, all of whom would periodically come visit him at his home. Despite this, Ed Beagle never married, and is not known to have sired any pups of his own.
