Does it only lift it's nose off the ground to howl? Does it never come when you call it, unless you have food in your possession? Is it a perpetual 'puppy'? If so, then I'd say it is a least part beagle

My dear beagle passed away this past weekend. Pup had made it to 20 years old. He liked his guinness warm and his pizza cold and was a great friend. I'm gonna miss him.

Best of luck and hopefully many enjoyable years with yours.
