2 organizations in Annapolis that take in and rehome beagles, hounds, and other dogs. Always call ahead to confirm current beagle availability.
Annapolis has just two listed organizations for beagle adoption — Paws at the Mall and Patuxent Animal Welfare Society, Inc. — which means your search here will be quick but focused. In a town of about 40,000 people on the Chesapeake Bay, beagles aren't always waiting on an adoption floor, so flexibility and a willingness to look nearby pay off. One of these groups has a polished website; the other less so, but both take in hounds. Start by calling both to ask what's available now, then expand your search to the surrounding towns if needed.

No organizations match that grade.
Annapolis itself is small enough that you'll want to cast wider almost immediately. Call both local organizations first and ask to join their waitlists, then look toward Bowie or Glen Burnie, each about fifteen minutes away, where you'll find several more shelters to contact. Confirm a beagle or hound-mix is there before driving out, and give yourself room to search the whole region — one of these six towns is very likely to have the dog you're looking for. Adopt from the Annapolis area and you'll bring home a companion that thrives on the long walks and outdoor life the Chesapeake region affords.
