I have given you some beagel info but here goes on the puppy stage.
 
Beagle puppies are no different than any other puppy I have raised. They are as cute as they can be. Teh coloring often changes from what youfirst bring home. The devlop more of the brown I think it is. Or maybe it is the white. I can't rmember.
 
Beagles can also come in a variety of colors. Ours is a tricolor but there are lemon beagles out there also. I had one as a kid.
 
Our beagel cried every single night for a month. She finally quit when we wised up and moved her crate into our bedroom. They do not want to be separate from their families.
 
Ours became quite the billy goat. She could jump ove rone baby gate so we had to resort to stacking two int he doorway. it was a real pain. Ours manaaged to chew two kitchen chair legs but any puppy will do that if you are not careful.
 
I think some of our bad behavior problems could have been alleviated had we been able to give her more exercise as a small pup. We got her in December and it was really too cold to do much walking with her as little as she was. And snow was too deep for her in the yard to play in. So all of her exercise was running around the house and that is not enough for a beagle puppy.
 
 

Yeah i know you guys are about tired of me asking you alot of questions. its just i dont wanna go out and get an dog  and not know anything about it. I Wanna be an educated owner and know all about my breed.The more i know is the easier it is for me and the beagle. Thank you for your information and i promise you i won"t let you down.

P.S. Its my first time owning an dog on my own and i want to do an good job at it. I realize it is an huge investment but i can do it.

Damarcus-

The two major issues with Beagles are that they are sometimes hard to housetrain, and they tend to follow their noses and be unreliable off leash.  But, having been bred to run in packs, the upside is that they are seldom dog-aggressive.  They are smart, but can be stubborn.  I had one for about 16 years, and she could do many tricks and was a great dog.  But, I always had a locking lid on my trash cans)  Beagles are a good dog for the first time owner who will diligently housetrain, and take the dog to classes.  They are generally food-motivated, so easy to train.  You can train a good recall (I'd use Leslie Nelson's DVD "Really Reliable Recall"), but don't trust them off leash.

rwbeagles on here not only has beagles but breeds and shows them.  She is a great resource... PM her.

I have owned beagles.  They are adorable looking puppies.  They are vocal.  Howling, wining, whistling, bubbly creatures.  They are usually little as adults but still dont' back down from larger more voracious dogs- which ends up in vet visit/ stitches sometimes.  They are hunters for small prey. 
 
If you want to get used to caring for pups/dogs, volunteer some time at a shelter. Assisting in caring for the creatures, communicating with others caring for them may teach much more than you can read.  You may even end up adopting a pet or two!

My mom has a beagle that I keep for her on a regular basis.
 
He's adorable and wonderful in the house.  Very cuddly.  He gets outside and his nose takes over.  He's a runner and will take any chance to run off on his own ... but always returns eventually. (After we've chased him for at least an hour...)  He prefers to have "snoopy" walks where he can sniff everything he passes. 
 
He rules my house - tells my two where to go and what to do. *laughing*
 
He has severe separation anxiety and cannot be crated.  Fortunately mom and dad are home with him almost all the time and when he's here he has my two to keep him company.  He makes a variety of "beagle-y" noises - very similar to Snoopy but he's not a howler.
 
Lovely dogs - I wouldn't have one but I grew up with hounds and they do make excellent pets.

Two things I know about beagles:
 
They are notorious for bolting out of open doors and not coming back.
They tend to be very vocal.
 
I have scenthounds and beagles share in the qualities of all scenthounds: they follow their noses, they are indpendent (some would say stubborn), and can be difficult to train if you don't know what you're doing. They've got their own agendas which sometimes might coincide with your agenda, but don't count on it! On the up-side, hounds tend to be nonaggressive, good with kids, and just friendly in general.

I'm sure there are also a lot of books about beagles too. You could go to major bookstore or petstore and look through the pet books. When I was looking for a book on greyhounds a while back I saw tons of books on pretty much every breed of dog at Barnes and Noble/Bookstop. That might be helpful in addition to the information you get here. And also if you read a book on them that might give you more specific questions that people here could help you with.
