1 organization in Carthage that take in and rehome beagles, hounds, and other dogs. Always call ahead to confirm current beagle availability.
Carthage is a small town in western Illinois, and rescue coverage here centers on a single organization: Hearts Of Hancock Humane Society. In a place this size, beagles won't always be available, so patience and a willingness to reach out to nearby towns make a real difference. The good news is that you're positioned well — Quincy, the nearest hub, is only about half an hour away and has four shelters to work through. This page covers what Carthage itself offers, then points you toward the surrounding region where your odds improve considerably.
Carthage, IL
A humane society serving the Carthage, Illinois area. As an open-admission shelter it takes in strays and owner surrenders of all kinds, so beagles and hound-mixes pass through regularly. Its listing lacks further detail here, so call ahead to confirm what dogs are currently available for adoption and how the process works.

No organizations match that grade.
When adopting from a small western Illinois town, starting with Hearts Of Hancock and then widening your search pays off. Call the Carthage shelter first and ask to join a waitlist for a beagle or hound-mix, then expand to Quincy, which has the most organizations nearby and makes for an easy drive. Confirm a dog is actually there before you head out. Adopting one of the Hancock County hounds gives a rural shelter room to help the next animal in need, and you'll drive home with a beagle that's grateful for a real family.
