Beagle/husky? Like, a busker?
I had a work friend once...came over to help me with a plumbing thing and brought his young (like, 4-ish) daughter and his dog, a beagle/corgi mix.
My wife kept the kid and the dog busy playing in the living room while the men tended to the plumbing job.
Then I hear the little girl yell out from the other room "I know! A kegel!", to which both my wife and I responded to with stifled laughter, and I heard my wife say "I was thinking more like...a borgy".
Turns out she had asked her if she thought that her dog had a funny breed name like how labradoodles are part Labrador, part poodle.
A Bagle Hound, Basset/Beagle. Shes got massive features like a Basset but looks a lot like a Beagle, but with long ears. Kinda droopy eyes and extra skin, heavy at 68lbs/30kg.
70lb dog with a low center of gravity and probably thinks he is a small dog.
Fun.
Beagle energy, or hound energy?
More Basset than Beagle, can be very stubborn, but has a mania mode when very excited. Shes surprising fast for her leg length, but overall shes got speed limits so other dogs big and small can usually outrun her.
Shes 4 feet long from nose to tail tip, when she rears up on her hind legs shes reaches pretty high, but only 17" high at the front shoulder when standing.
I think its about 50/50 for people guessing, is it a beagle? or basset?
She also doenst make much noise, shes weirdly a silent hound, when very excited she will vocalize a short deep bay, but no barking or general baying otherwise.
