1 organization in Cookeville that take in and rehome beagles, hounds, and other dogs. Always call ahead to confirm current beagle availability.
Cookeville is a college town in the Cumberland Plateau, and beagle adoption here comes down to one organization: Cookeville Putnam County Animal Shelter. In a city of about 35,000, that's thin coverage, which means beagles won't always be waiting on the adoption floor. The upside is that you're surrounded by small towns, each with their own shelter or rescue, so a thirty-minute drive in almost any direction opens up real options. This page starts local and shows you where to expand when you're ready to search.
Cookeville, TN
The municipal animal shelter for Cookeville and Putnam County, Tennessee. As an open-admission facility it takes in strays and owner surrenders of all kinds, so beagles and hound-mixes pass through regularly. Its listing lacks detail here, so call ahead to confirm what dogs are currently available for adoption and how the process works.

No organizations match that grade.
Call Cookeville Putnam County Animal Shelter first and ask to be added to their waitlist — they'll flag you when a beagle or hound-mix arrives. Don't wait passively; check Sparta and Crossville at the same time, both closer than an hour away, for a wider net. Confirm any dog is actually available before you drive out, since small shelters fill fast. Adopt one of the plateau's hounds and you're bringing home a dog that might have sat there weeks longer, waiting for exactly your call.
