1 organization in
Huntington that take in and rehome beagles, hounds, and other dogs. Always call
ahead to confirm current beagle availability.
Huntington's beagle options narrow down to a single listing: Huntington Cabell Wayne Animal Control Shelter, which serves the city and surrounding areas. As a municipal shelter in a town of roughly 47,000, it takes in strays and surrenders regularly, including hounds. Beagles won't be on hand every day, but the shelter's website makes it fairly easy to see what's currently available. Because this one organization carries the whole load locally, your best move is to call ahead, ask what's there now, and join a waitlist if nothing's quite right. Don't overlook the smaller towns nearby — they're close enough to make worth a look.
A high-volume open-intake shelter serving Huntington and Cabell and Wayne Counties, managed by West Virginia Animal Rescue (WVAR). It takes in more than 3,000 animals yearly, including strays and surrenders, and works to place dogs and cats through adoption, foster homes, and transfers to rescue partners. It also runs spay/neuter and community-education programs. Hounds and beagle-mixes turn up regularly in a shelter of this size.
With only one shelter in Huntington proper, spreading your net to the surrounding region makes real sense. Call Huntington Cabell Wayne Animal Control Shelter first and ask to be flagged when a beagle arrives, then consider a short drive to Hurricane or Point Pleasant, both under an hour away, for backup options. Confirm a dog is actually available before you head out. Adopting a hound from a small-city West Virginia shelter is the honest path to bringing one home, and the miles are worth it when you find the right dog waiting for you.
