we are a mom and kids who loved beagles and wanted to share our love of the breed with families who don't want a kennel raised pup.
we aren't in it for fame , we don't show our dogs, we don't hunt our beagles like most breeders in the south , we pamper our pets like their new owners would want them to be treated as home body housepet beagles not caged hounds and it shows in our little ones demeanor and personality traits as house pets . some of our lines shed less fur , we don't claim they are non shed , just less than most other lines since we are actively working selecting the best offspring from our lines to improve the beagle as a companion not a rabbit tracking , or field trial dog. As you read over our 30 some odd years working on our unique bloodline to create a better family member please take your time to learn about us , then share about your home so we can work together to find the perfect fit for your unique lifestyle including one of our hand raised beagle puppies !

Our Original Location is our family home in North Carolina, perched on top of a hill above a pond and surrounded by acres of Woods. Miss C's kids Christi and Cody grew up here helping mom raise sweet little family members!
We also have family in Georgia near the Florida line we work with in developing our line of Companion Pet Beagles in Ga. When caring for her folks, Miss C is in Naples Florida, and has hand delivered our babies to their new families in Florida many times. We work one at a time to make a wonderful experience and lifetime of happiness, and continued contact as our little furry kids grow up across the USA, and beyond.... :)

Sometimes people are surprised at Beagles happy indoors ... we have selectively bred for certain qualities to make our line people oriented rather than interested in hunting instincts we have spent 25 plus years honing in on the dogs that are focused on their Families to improve our line for homebodies, and housepet beagles.
Henry's parents found us online and picked him to be their furry child in NYC .

All Grown up now he is the " perfect indoor housepet beagle "size . Runtsized beagles are perfect they arent heavy to lift and can still keep up with your walks but dont need them as much as standard beagles require.

Beach Beagles !
Khaki runtsized Beagle Grace travels to the beach with Miss c. visiting a friend in Holden Beach and staying at our favorite dog friendly Hotel on Myrtle Beach !
the Khaki beagles can take being out in the sunshine better than a black tri color . Those attract the heat of the rays and must find shade or shelter. We place alot of the lighter colored beagles in warm climate locations for this reason they enjoy a day at the Beach !!  Traveling Companion!
khaki runt sized Grace travels with Miss Christina and is still napping when the sunrises ....@ a dog-friendly hotel- Sea Mist Resort @ Myrtle Beach lots of singles find having a pet along when they travel keeps you company in new places you haven't explored yet :) and gives you a cute reason to strike up new friendships :) |

Khaki beagle "Grace" matches the peaceful and beautiful shoreline!
She is a runt size, great lapdog size and still a fun playmate! she can still keep up on a short walk
but unlike her larger beagle buddies who are standard sized she doesn't need much walking to be content.
she is also much easier to lift and carry around with one hand /arm to rest on .
since the lighter coloring of a khaki beagle doesnt have black fur in it to attract the Sun' s Rays of Heat...
they tend to get along much better in warmer environments and as a result we place most in Florida
California and the Beach towns up and down the East Coast .

Grace the khaki on left ,and a younger now retired Standard sized orange mom our larger standard size "Athena" also a daughter to Grace's mother tri colored "Lillie" but from a later litter with a different Dad . they were both about to jump down off the couch. it goes to show you anything is possible size wise or colors from the same mother. she is seen to right with Grace. half sister Athena the orange gal had bigger everything, ears, head, neck, length of body, tail, paw size. lifting grace , no problem, lifting a larger standard requires two arms. |
khaki runtsized Grace above with her Mother retired Tri colored standard sized mom "Lillie" . one mom can have many kinds of puppies arrive Grace wasnt the smallest of her litter there was a chocolate sister who was even smaller. we fed grace carefully growing up so she would stay small and it worked , grace only had two litters and both were by emergency csection so we had her fixed to be a companion not a breeding dog. Our moms have a few litters for us and then are adopted as pets . we do this to enjoy the improving of the hound breed for pet homes.

Promise's khaki mini boy "Gracen"
announcing our future less shedding fur Stud Muffin to be !
"Gracen" khaki mini male keeper for Sunshine Acres Beagles breeding program. 
We are so glad Promise had one last litter with this downline from our all time favorite "Grace" so we could keep her wonderful companion pet traits going in our beagle housepet bloodlines. He will bring a new level of luxurious less shedding fur and hopefully help improve our puppies in the futures' fur! It is amazing how short and soft his fur is while not visibly coming out... not all have the same coats of course and Miss Christina is thrilled to keep the best ever so far.
|
Promise, daughter of "Grace", helps babysit her son Gracen while Miss C works on the computer, trying to keep up with all the emails coming in... (if yours is missed please try again! Christi usually handled emails/computer things before moving to college)
Grace's great grandson Gracen shows he minds so very well!
He has never had on a collar or leash yet, he follows Miss Christina as she walks between our two houses on the hill unfenced in. We are getting things moved over to the log cabin now where Cody and his wife will live. They are taking care of Gracen for Miss C. when she is in fla taking care of her parents when she leaves soon . 
|
.of course diet plays a large part in creating a dog's coat ,
we have always used Eukanuba and Iams products to help with skin and fur, as well as adding real meat to his diet . Just like humans all dogs are not alike. Genetics also play a role in how much an animal sheds fur and we hope he shares this trait as well as his personality.
Gracen is super Loyal to Miss C. and follows her like a shadow even off leash to our other house on the same driveway:) on our unfenced acreage property.

We have spent the last almost 30 years selectively breeding for good indoor companion qualities, and among all the companion qualities we breed for, temperament for house pets being first , we have also worked to develop softer, more indoor appropriate coats in our house pet beagle bloodlines, and these coats come in many beautiful hound colors. The softer rare color coats are not as 'hard' and stiff of a fur as some traditional tri colored beagle sporting dog line hounds can have- which were originally bred for with the sporting intention of hunting and running through the briars and brambles coming out or breaking off rather than becoming caught and tangled-up in the briar patch :) chasing after Rabbits . |
Tricolors, Chocolates, Oranges, Silvers, & Khakis!

"the only thing my beautiful chocolate sunshine beagle hunts is my ham sandwich while we hangout on the couch . "Bogie" is night and day different from my previous tri colored beagle who would escape constantly from our fenced yard to track animals in my neighborhood. His breeder had designed his generations for the sporting hound lines which my parents bought into with my first beagle growing up !. And he shed so much all year long my mom never would let me have him inside the house."

Tricolor BeaglesThe traditional Tricolor Beagle is the Black/Tan/White or Black/Red/White Tri coloring usually seen.
As newborns, they are only two colors- black & white, and as they grow they develop the third reddish coloring on their heads and shoulders where black was present, the white stays white. |
|
Any color Beagle may or may not have a "Blaze" which is the white between a dog's eyes, and/or a "Bandana" which is the white around the back of their neck. Patches below had a wide blaze and white muzzle area around the nose.

The Vanblons wrote to tell us about their family and home, letting us know their childrens' ages, home type and that they have a fenced yard, and that mom will be at home with the new pup! "The dog will sleep in our bedroom when it first arrives, probably in it's own bed in our master bathroom. Audna works from home so she'll be available to assist the dog when it first arrives. We plan on attending PetSmart training classes to train the dog to sit, stay, come, etc. We are not sure if we want a male or female dog. It will be an indoor dog mostly, but will be able to run free in our fenced back yard for exercise. My brother has a maltipooh and my sister has a lab, so the doggies can frolic together during family vacations. We may use your boarding services in the future when we travel. " We love seeing our babies again when folks travel, and have had families travel to board with us so that their family member can have his own doggy vacation here in his first home at sunshine acres.
The Vanblons joined the waiting list that fall for their own sunshine beagle puppy to arrive in the future,
hopeful for the summer after they'd be ready !

"Miss Christina & kids, I just wanted to you send yall an update on Patches. He is doing soooo great in training class. Our trainer gave him the pre-test today and he passed 16 out of 20 objectives. She said he is one of the smartest Beagles she has ever trained. Housebreaking is going great, he goes to the back door and sits to let us know it is time to go out. He has finished up all his shots and is going later this week to be neutered. The Vet said he is one of the prettiest puppies ever. We are looking forward to seeing you all again next week when we drop him off for boarding. Thanks again for raising such a smart little fellow for us! Audna VanBlon & Family" |

Miss C's Part time Helper Ray Ann holds a tri colored puppy who;s head has started to turn red ,to show how the black fades and this one will have a solid red head as an adult beagle.
|
tri colored beagles start out pretty much black and white and the red comes in around the eyes first then on the ears and top of head and shoulders giving them the 3rd color, therefore TRI -Color Beagles
|

We have worked to further develop smoother coats in our beagle lines, creating especially less shedding coats in many of our rarecolors
Chocolate & White Beagles
Our classy Chocolate Beagles have warm Brown & White coloring, and they can often have less shedding coats! Usually their backs will have a deeper chocolate, and their heads will be a brighter brown color.

 Chocolate beagle puppy Cole sits calmly on his bed with his litttermates here in our home. In this puppy setup, he has the choice of bed and toys, and paper, and learns to choose paper for "good hurry up"and keep his bed clean. We work with our puppies ahead of time to help with the transition to their indoor forever pet-home!
"First of all, the new pictures of Cole and his littermates are ADORABLE!! He has such a sweet little face we can't wait to pick him up. We are glad they all liked the stuffed dog, I was afraid it would be too big!" - The Hroncichs |
"Hello All, I thought it would be nice to update you on our little Cole who turns one today! I can't believe its been a year already since we first contacted you about him!
Cole has been an amazing addition to this beagle-loving household.He has grown to be so handsome, he gets fawned over everywhere we go! He is also quite the mush, we get lots of kisses and cuddles from this little guy.Cole is super smart and is a quick learner. He enjoys our daily walks and trips to the dog park.He is quite entertaining and gets along so well with Roscoe, our first beagle who is now 2, and Gino our 6 year old basset-beagle mix that we rescued back in March of this year. I have attached some pictures of Cole for you to see! Thank you so much! Lisa and Anthony Upstate NY" |

Often our orange and white beagles tend to have nice shorter coats from "certain bloodlines "
we have worked to improve.
As with children in the same home one can have straight fine hair and another may have course curly hair in a different color , its not a perfect science but over the years we have worked to selectively breed the best quality coloring/textures for softness/and least shedding furs possible. We do not claim any of our beagles are Non- shed.
Of course a dog has to loose its winter coat in the heat of summer etc. and diet, and even stress, can affect fur and shedding.. we feel the omega 3 fish oils for skin and coat in the puppy Eukanuba we feed are a great help toward our babies coats and hope our adopting families likewise are careful what they feed to achieve the best quality to continue our years of choosing the bloodlines to improve on the typical beagles coat for indoor companions. We call our best coats Less Shed since they are considerably less than hunting hounds who also have an odor and longer course piece of fur than our rare color beagles generally have.
Our vibrant Orange and white beagles
are attention getting sidekicks! 
They will sometimes have the beautiful eyeliner, complimenting their colors very nicely.
Our orange mommy Maisy with her puppies! She is the mother of "Cole" the chocolate further above
They Love and Respect a Leader and we choose not to place them in homes with young children so they understand the pack order in a household and thrive with "their" Master in charge :)
they like more exercise and outdoor activities to thrive and be satisfied.

Khaki & White Beagles
|
Our luxurious Khaki and white beagles are Miss C's favorites! We have worked to develop softer coats all around, and the khakis in particular most often have the very least stereotypical hound traits and are usually the ones to have the nicest less shedding fur, some folks even call it a hypo-allergenic coat, which is why many of our customers who have had allergies to dog dander and fur in the past chose to adopt one of our rare color khaki beagles with the shorter less shedding coats. Some of The Chocolates, Silvers, oranges, and occasionally tricolors "depending on heritage" can also have the "less shedding coats" good for house-pets ! just like in human families there can be different types of hair/fur and it can be influenced by diet as well as ancestry . We breed each of our lines keeping all traits in mind, while also focusing on coat quality since our babies are bred to be indoor companion pets. |

Khaki "Velvetine" as a puppy here at home in our puppy office.
She retired after having a couple litters for us , and lives with her new owner in South fla. enjoying being a pampered pet
Velveteen goes everywhere with her adoptive single mom, she is a perfect smaller sized khaki beagle lap dog .
she is so easy to lift and carry around she even brings her to work with her to her Real Estate office too! we love having our retirees go to single folks who treat them like their first child and spoil them like we do ! 
in order to see size differences in the above photo our runtsize khaki Grace stands next to a standard tri colored beagle. head size, length of body, paws, length of legs and tail everything is proportionally smaller . Now picture lifting and carrying her to your car to go somewhere , now picture the same with him , lifting a runtsize or mini beagle is far easier and you have the other hand to carry things and lock the door etc. easily. |
this cutie had a
Valentine Heart on his shoulder, too cute ! 
Final body weight depends not only on size and genetics it can be affected by what and how often a puppy /dog is fed as it grows.

khaki beagle in Folly Beach South Carolina. with such nice shorter slicker fur its easier to keep things nice & neat . happily khaki beagles are a bit prissy and most dont like to get their paws muddy, we noticed Grace goes around any water or mud , hunting hounds dont much care since they arent sleeping in anyones bed tonight   |
Khaki Cuties... Interior Designer inspired colors !!
(We say this tongue and cheek)- sometimes folks do tend to appreciate their colors for their beauty, but these are all true hound colors, some of which are much more rare than others. What is exclusive to our bloodline is the many years selective breeding we've done to increase the quality of coats, softness, shorter length of fur coat, and due to their quality, in many cases the richness & vibrance of the color, and decrease the amount of fur that comes out, since these are intended to be indoor housepets. This is only one of the many traits we've considered and focused on more than other breeders who are developing their lines for other purposes. We don't agree with designer dogs, where breeders cross breed resulting in obtaining some of the traits they desired from various breeds to create a new type of dog or look, ours are all pure bred beagles, we just used our discretion to choose puppies with the best possible qualities, one of which included a softer less course coat, that Miss Christina's mom, who was an interior designer, noted many years ago would make a better indoor pet and she favored the less shedding khaki color, which she joked coincidently went so well with many yuppie decor, thus we jokingly made the comment they were interior designer inspired colors many years ago, before the advent of what other breeders have bred for and coined as their 'designer dogs'. We have not designed the beagle, we have only enhanced our line for - Pet homes & families who want an indoor raised sweetheart to love for a lifetime companionship ! Folks tell us their khaki beagle has less of the typical beagle traits such as tracking, howling , and running off. we love that other folks see the difference in them too ! A family who had a tri colored beagle when the kids grew up told us their dog would escape and go hunt down rabbits to bring to their back door as a present. Their khaki beagle is so unlike that dog they told us they dont even have alergic reactions to it vs their tri color that made them alergic when it was at home not out hunting prey !
Grace goes with Miss Christina to see a friends newly finished rental property a Gorgeous
3 story beach house , with new hardwood floors, ( we have had several folks tell us having a beagle on hardwood floors is ok and hasnt damaged the wood since they keep the nails trimmed .) He had a great salt water pool, elevator, and all ;) Holden Beach . Grace loved the view and being steps from the beach out the front door there. |

one of our stud muffins "Graham" lives the good life in South Park NC. he loves being an inside dog .
his owner and her sister had both adopted tri color beagles from us many many years ago. He was able to fill
that hole in her heart when her first boy passed from old age. We were happy to help her stop missing her boy.
Often folks tell us they want a different color , size or gender so as not to compare the new dog to the one they
loved so much and miss. It helps some folks to try a different color so as not to be reminded of their pet.

not all our breeding dogs live with us, some are adopted out as family pets ,and have arrangements worked out so they can return to be bred, boys might get a puppy to join them , or free boarding when their family travels to the beach if they sire a litter while staying with us... one local Monroe family lets Saddle back Tri colored" Gaige" stay with us ,and he sires litters that have his unique white paws and coloring down their legs. That way , We dont have to have one of each type of look here.. , in order to have puppies arrive who have varied looks and markings or coloring. We have sires in pet homes... a khaki boy, silver boy ,chocolate boy, tri boy and above to right -Graham cracker colored "Graham" are some of our stud muffins who help create our beautiful unique line of housepet beagles for other to enjoy.

 Beagle puppies in Charlotte NC
Myers Park, Charlotte, NC, blonde, "Lemon", 'Margaret' on right. We stopped by to visit her, and show them our newest khaki, and chocolate colored puppies. We joked with her blond parents about having chosen the only lemon in her litter cause they matched ! Folks often choose a puppy that matches them well , just as people choose a mate who resembles themselves ! They posed for our Yuppy Puppy Photo !! Margaret's mom was expecting their 1st human baby and having learned from raising her was a good initial experience in parenthood for the young couple !

"Hey Christina Just wanted to let you know we made it home. We played all afternoon, must have worn her out!!!. She slept like a baby all night long. She couldnt believe the snow the next morning.Also would like to tell you how well you handled everything. I can't see why anyone would want to go anywhere else for a beagle pup. You had all the answers and very helpful in getting stated on the right foot. I still look over your web site, so many helpful tips are there. You should be hearing from my sister soon about one of your pups. Thanks again John"

 Our beagles enjoy both cuddling,
as well as adventures with the fam!
"These are some pictures of our beagle, Kiwi. We got her from you last March and her name was Juliet before we got her. We love having Kiwi as a part of our family! She is the sweetest puppy, very loving and cuddly. She loves to play fetch with ropes, toys or balls. She loves children and other dogs and gets so excited when she sees the kids coming home from school. I thought you would like to know that she is doing great and we love having her here!"
"Hi guys! Hope all is well your way~ Thought you'd get a kick out of seeing Slate LOl.. he is doing great, can't believe he is 3 already~ we were looking at some of his puppy photos and my gosh he was so darn adorable.. no wonder we fell in love online!! He's enjoying our newest addition to the family.. we got a dwarf bunny for my daughter.. "Jessica" and Slate are best buddies.. the irony!!!! Will have to take some photos of them playing for you.. they play this hide and seek game around the couch... and Jess pops out and Slate just go nuts and gives her kisses when she'll let him.. he truly gets along with everyone huh?? take care, The julius gang "

After meeting the Case family's Khaki Mini "Justin", Granddad fell in love with their Sunshine Acres Beagle and wanted one of his own! David & Irene got him the best birthday gift, his very own baby beagle!
|
As we head home, we check our emails on the laptop and see a new one from Karen with an email from David to her husband attached to the bottom!
" Such a small world!! David and my husband have known each other for years! I am hoping that Sandy is doing well - and there might be a nano or 2 in her belly :-) all the best for xmas ! karen ( and jon ) From: David Case Date: December 18, 2009 12:44:02 PM PST To: Jon Rubinstein Subject: Sunshine Beagle Pups John, I just picked this little guy up in Charlotte. While I was speaking to Christina, the breeder, she saw my Pixi and said "the iPod and Pixi creator is getting one of our pups, too...". After a few questions, we figured it was you - these guys are adorable... Bosco, here, is for my in-laws - we got a khaki pup back in March... Enjoy! Dave" |
 Karen flies to Charlotte from California and takes a Limo out to sunshine acres from Charlotte Douglas International airport to meet our family in person and leave her deposit to get in line for a khaki mini female!
|

 |
|
 While Karen visits, Christi shows her the pictures of Lemons aka Nina that Michelle
and David sent us from Sa Fransisco. |
One by one Karen recognizes the area, saying ""Awe what great pictures! That could even be the beach that was nearby... Oh it is! That's Alcatraz in the background!... Oh! That's where the Coffee Shop is!!"
|
 "I took her shopping today !
Here she is with the sales ladies at Burberry.
They LOVED her."
|
 "Here we are on Saturday - sitting at the VERY table where we met the first nano beagle!!
Pixi was a huge hit! Jon kept taking her away from me so he could hold her and get all the attention!!"
|
"She is SO cute. And you cannot believe how affectionate she is. We let her snuggle with us on the couch every night -- and in the bed for naps and early in the AM -- She loves that! But happily goes in her crate when we put her there. But her favorite place is to snuggle with me. :-) IT is helping a lot. I miss Holly so much - im sort of numb still ......since i had her for so long as she was my first dog. Thanks for asking. I have a couple pics to send from Mexico where you can see Pixi holding fort over the place! And when she isnt playing in the grass or sand she is being spoiled by our staff that fight over who gets to carry her around. The cleaning girls come and ask if they can bring Pixi around with them as they clean the bedrooms and they sing mexican lulabys to her all morning. Then they carry her around like a baby. She is one spoiled DIVA!! all the best, karen"
After having such a great experience with their first

Kristin & Stan at our house meeting us & our babies. They claimed two siblings and then came back to pick up their new kids!!
"Hi Ms. Christina,
This is Kristin and Stan from Georgia. We got 2 of Carla's first litter. It is hard to believe that they are 15 months old now! Pickles and Elvis are doing well. They are so spoiled and we love spoiling them! They travel so well (in fact, they have flew to Chicago and Cleveland with us!). We always receive compliments on what beautiful dogs and coats our babies have! We make sure we always tell them about our wonderful handraised bealges from North Carolina! In fact, we were in the vets getting our yearly rabies shot and the whole office was in a buzz because "Pickles and Elvis" were in!

We are a small family, a stay at home single mom and her two kids, who love beagles. Raising beagles is our sole focus. Sunshine Acres Beagles started in the North West, with our first litter of beagle puppies by Miss Christina's 'Angel', alongside the birth of Christina's daughter 'Christi' in 1990. A couple years and puppies later in 1992 Miss Christina's son "Cody" joined the family. Christina had owned beagles previously as pets, and after noticing the differences in beagle lines, from hunting stock in the south to the show bloodlines in the NorthWest, she decided to focus on developing a line strictly for the responsible pet-home, breeding for the qualities that make beagles a great family addition and raising them for that purpose. Miss Christina had experienced the joy of the beagle breed from early childhood, falling in love with their endearing, curious, and well-rounded nature. She also experienced the sorrow of losing a friend due to the scent-driven desires bred into and started on in hunting lines, where their passion was meant for the game. However, having also owned companion beagles, and seeing their passion for their master and human families, Miss Christina understood the difference that breeding focus and upbringing methods can make and with love for the Beagle breed she decided to share that joy we have found in our beloved beagle companions with other families like ours, who truly want a companion to live as a member of the household. Our love for the beagle breed has compelled us to focus on breeding to improve the breed for homebodies, not hunting abilities, raising puppies to be family members specifically bred and raised for the purpose of being a happy healthy beloved pet! Today, we continue to work developing our beagle bloodline to be a family member in a responsible home, and place our puppies only into approved pet-homes who share our love of the beagle breed for pet homes.
|
27 + years of development has gone into producing our exclusive beagle bloodline. This means we are selectively breeding to develop an all-around exceptional companion pet, meant for homes where having a healthy indoor companion to be strictly a member of their family is their desire. We are not claiming to breed for hunting and improve the beagle breed for Hunting and Field Trial enthusiasts who want a beagle whose traits were bred for those purposes, we breed for companions, and we leave hunting breeding to the other reputable breeders who specialize in designing their beagles for those customers. Our dogs are bred to be family pets for approved homes and do not go to breeders, hunters, or pet stores. We don't claim to have the only rare color beagles, simply that we are the exclusive source of this all-around exquisite line that we have worked to develop over our years of dedication to the breed, which includes our years of development on these enhanced luxurious fur coats, with beautiful colors, and improved less shedding coats, as well as the family-oriented mindset, temperament and all the positive beagle traits we have bred for in our bloodline, and since our pets do not go into breeding programs, only we have this unique pedigree & bloodline.
|
|
|
|
Our babies' well-rounded pet traits are the result of selective breeding for only & all superior pet qualities for the beagle owner who purely wants a companion that's happy to be your indoor housepet to love; we have worked to improve upon our bloodline for conformation, health, intelligence & temperament, avoiding breeding dogs known to have any faults that would make them less desirable as the perfect match for someone to cherish as their compatible indoor companion, meanwhile doing our very best to weed out any issues that may come up in specific cases as all reputable breeders do by appreciating the pet owner's feedback. Like people, puppies can be different from each other, and
unlike a pet-store, a reputable breeder wants to hear from caring customers so
that they can continue to improve their lines in each generation. We have also worked to weed out the negative beagle stereotypes you may have heard of from your friends and acquaintances when you mentioned getting a beagle for a housepet; While beagles are wonderful loving creatures, many people over the years have relayed their bad experiences in getting a beagle from different
lines that were not necessarily designed to be a housepet, but rather who's natural tendency to run rabbits overpowered their love of family, and they escaped their backyard to use the talents that it was designed and selectively enhanced for.

Since hand raising overall great pets is our heart's desire, we are not only focusing our attention on a specific trait, color, or size; We focus on all qualities because striving for an isolated trait could mean sacrificing the integrity of the other traits if ignored (such as those out there only concerned with size, etc.) Instead, we are working to improve the breed we love in all areas for other pet-owners, and not only conformation and temperament, we also consider the quality of all their traits before keeping a puppy to add to our breeding program, so that we can continue to have and develop puppies that are best suited as family members in your responsible pet home. Since we do not allow anyone to breed our companion pets and add them to other kennels' atmospheres, other breeders should not feel affected by us altering the original purpose of the beagle breed to run rabbits and it affecting future generations, since we are the only source of our bloodline that goes into forever pet-homes.

Sara flies in to take home her tiny chocolate buddy Charlie, she has already sent a second deposit to get another she has enjoyed the first experience so much !
"He has grown into SUCH a handsome boy. People comment all the time on how good looking he is. And he just has the best personality...such a lover. A friend came over who was having a rough time and Charlie seemed to sense in and just gave him nothing but love and snuggles - didn't leave his lap. Puppy therapy is such a real thing. Charlie saves on heating bills by keeping my bed warm in the winter ;) and I have reached a new level of hatred for Mondays when I have to go to the office and leave him after a fabulous weekend of fetch and snuggles. I think of you all so often and cannot begin to express how thankful I am for all you do to raise such incredible dogs. Charlie has improved my life in countless ways."

As a family, our family-homelife is where our passion resides.
We are not a pet-store and we consider our efforts raising our puppies and taking care of our dogs here at home more important than making sales or pursuing leads that may or may not be serious about adopting a beagle puppy from our family. Adoption of one of our family's babies is personal, so please read about our family, and then tell us about yours before asking to adopt, so we know you're serious and have taken the time to read first. :) Raising beagle puppies is a full time engagement for our family. Our in depth website reflects our 25+ years of selective breeding and raising beagle puppies for approved pet homes and happy families. We have many detailed pages on adoption and so forth to help prepare new interests for the important step of puppy ownership! |
Miss Christina's son Cody helping take pictures of the puppies! We are constantly checking in on our babies, and like to take new pics to add to the website whenever possible!
|
We, Miss Christina and Christi, have built our website to help share our years of experience (25+ for Christi who has been raised with puppies since birth, and 50+ for Miss C who had beagles growing up, and started breeding select beagles as a stay at home mom when Christi was born!) and answer everyone's questions ahead of time through our detailed web topics with our pictures, to narrow down our volume of inquiries so that we can take our time to focus on our babies first and foremost, and those who took the time to get to know our family's passion and are truly serious about adopting from our family. (It also takes time to raise a puppy! Raising a puppy is fun! But it can also be diligent work taking patience, consistence and passion to help your pup fit in and learn from your composed and collected positive energy. Dogs pick up on energy good or bad very well, and begin adjusting to your energy, so we care about seeing a good upbeat positive energy from potential adoptees!)
Miss Christina's daughter Christi and orange sunshine beagle pup Chili Pepper. Chili had been adopted and then came to board with us here at home while his parents went out of town. We LOVE seeing our babies again and hanging out with them while we take care of our daily duties here at home, including web updates and emails with sincere adoptive homes.
|
We just want to see everyone happy for the years to come, and know that potential families are willing to work with us patiently and positively through the process of adding a puppy, and follow our family's doggy-advice in the future. We truly care about our babies' futures, and are here to help sincere adoptees whenever we can! |

Our knowledge base in the form of an ever growing website allows serious families to take their time viewing and learning while we care for our puppies, and feel comfortable before beginning the process of adopting one of our babies. Learning about the differences in our companion beagles raised for loving pet homes and not for hunting showing breeding or retail, our different colors and sizes developed over the years through careful breeding, the different prices and considering your budget plans for a lifelong companion, and understanding our family's goals in finding good adoptees who will have a lasting good relationship with our family as our baby's forever home, as well as getting an idea of your ultimate plans & desires before contacting us about adoption helps everything go smoother, so that when potential homes are ready and committed to the idea of adding a puppy to their life, we can take their interest seriously and focus our attention on their individual desires and approving their details for adoption.

Adriana above and to the right the day she went home
this shows how they change and the ears grow longer and head turns more and more red ... till they end up like her mom below Audrey with a solid red head and white around the nose , and black saddle on their backs. 
|
"Audrey" Tri colored mom above stands next to son Cody's nice Ford Hybrid (he earned money doing courier trips hand delivering pups to earn and save up for ) Audrey takes a little break from caring for her litter hanging around off leash ... few Beagle Breeders can say they are able to have dogs that are loose and don't run off to track rabbits in the surrounding woods. We have a private drive and share the 2 homes on it our brick home/office where we meet with adopting families to be, and our log cabin on a pond next to it . at sunshine acres often we have loose beagles here and they are allowed to follow along as we go about tending to our chores at sunshine beagle pups. |
|
"Lucky" her sister also is free yet sticks around sunshine acres
not in a fence or invisible fence. 
Behind and all around us are many rolling acres of woods and land they could choose to leave to yet they don't have that same desire other breeders are busy augmenting in their bloodlines for hunting purposes.
Miss Christina's log cabin next to our office is on a pond ... Audrey suns herself and hangs out waiting till she comes outside to follow her around as she does her daily routine feeding moms and puppies and all the doggies are tended to ...
and loved on. 
no fence to keep her home, she just wants to be here not hunting like other breeders dogs would be who are designed to do a job using their noses :)

Our Mission statement:
Here at Sunshine Acres Beagle Puppies we raise the best family dogs from our selectively bred companion beagle parents. Each one is given the special attention and care you would want your new family pet to receive from the day its born to the time it is ready to go home with you to join your family. We work with them on house training, using paper, as well as taking them outside so they will fit right into your home as the perfect small house dog. We specialize in happy home bodies , so they make great indoor companion pets, and loving Lap dogs. Hand raised to be more than just cute puppies for sale these are in many people's opinion the best small breed dog for kids. Many beagle breeders specialize in hunting hounds raised for traits we do not breed for. Our beagle Pups for sale come from AKC Show Champion and CDX Companion dog origins from the North West, and over many years of careful selection choosing our bloodlines ancestors for qualities we find most beneficial to our line to create the dogs best for families look for an indoor pet. Our baby beagles come in standard size & 13 inch beagles, as well as our very special mini beagles, or as some pocket beagle breeders call them "Pocket Beagle Puppies". We also have worked on coats to develop a shorter fur that sheds considerably less than the typical beagle dogs you will find elsewhere from many other beagle breeders nationwide, this is one of the many reasons we have customers come to us from all over the nation to purchase their new pet for a house dog. We dont run ads in the paper, as most of our customers are often repeat customers who loved their Sunshine Acres Beagle Puppy so much they want another to enjoy and for their current sunshine acres beagle to enjoy, or friends of someone who has had such a great experience with us they too decide to get their new beagle baby from our family ! Our unique Less shedding fur means less bathing, no hound dog odors and oily coats like some beagle hounds are known to have...so with our line you have less time washing the dog, and less cleaning your home from the longer fur many others have. We have Tri colored beagle pups , as well as our unique gorgeous Least shedding Rare Colored beagles. Our beagle puppies are for sale in North Carolina, but people all over drive to us to choose one, such as folks who adopt a beagle from Florida , Georgia,or Virginia, or fly across the country from as far as California.
We have also made courier trips for families when all works out, so far to Washington DC, Florida, and have even flown out to hand deliver to return customers getting a second sunshine beagle in Las Vegas, Chicago ,and Canada. Whichever your family chooses to do is just fine with us we are not a big kennel, just a mom and her kids, and sister and her daughter helping hand raise our beagle pups, with a Vet tech helper and a part time helper who grew up raising boxers.
We have an awesome Veterinary Staff nearby on call night or day for us.

she even had m n m's made with Graces face on them... too cute!
Grace looks over what Josh sent - lots of cute and helpful things related to his job at Disney World in Orlando Florida.
He was head of event planning there. He got a orange and white pup to join he and his daughter in a new home they just got with a nice fenced yard for a puppy to play in. Over the years we used the 3 books on the different parts of Disney to loan to our customers boarding their sunshine beagle and heading to Disney ! they all told us what a big help having the guides was and appreciated his sharing that part of his world with us to share with others... after that people really started sending thoughtful items from "their part of the world" from all over the country. This made our jobs fun and rewarding and I hope neice Lauren will have the same generous loving families adopt the pups she is raising up for us now and find this equally rewarding with the friendships to be made along the way as well

our family likes to find great homes for each of our pups to go into so please tell us about
yourselves and the home you could provide for one of our babies and include how you would get them home.
we look for homes with fenced yards , adults or older responsible children, empty nesters and retired couples are our favorite to work with :)
