    28 Ways Having A Beagle Ruins You For Life

    If Charlie Brown offers you Snoopy, just say no.

    1. They never want to spend any time with you.

    2. And they won't bond with your children.

    3. In fact, they won't even give your kids the time of day.

    7. Bye, joy.

    8. You'll spend countless hours trying to train them — but it can't be done.

    9. You'll end up losing fingers from all the biting they do.

    10. You're gonna have to get rid of your cat, because they can't stand being around them.

    11. And half of the time, you're breaking up fights they get in with other dogs.

    14. There's absolutely nothing majestic about them.

    16. I see no adorableness here.

    17. Cuteness underload.

    18. They make horrible study buddies.

    19. They never listen to a word you say.

    20. And they can't STAND being photographed.

    21. So good luck getting them to be photogenic.

    22. You have to force them to go on walks.

    23. You'll waste all your money on toys they won't play even with.

    24. And also waste money on celebrations.

    25. They loathe cuddling.

    26. And being held close to your heart.

    27. They're never anxiously waiting for you to come home.

    28. And they'll never, ever make you proud to be their best friend.
