Did you know?
Beagles are small scent hounds originally bred for pack hunting, prized for their keen nose and enduring stamina in the field. Their distinctive tricolor coat—tan, white, and black—and characteristically drooping ears have made them beloved family companions for centuries, though their hunting instinct and stubborn streak still shine through in their spirited personalities.

Pattern description
A tricolored beagle sits alert near shallow water, rendered in soft pastels and muted earth tones that create a peaceful, wistful mood. The composition places the pup in profile against a calm blue-green sky and gentle green landscape, evoking a moment of quiet contemplation.
This 166×166-stitch counted cross-stitch pattern uses 23 DMC thread colors to build depth across the dog's tan, black, and cream coat. The advanced skill level rewards patient needleworkers with subtle shading and fine detail work that brings the beagle's soulful expression and relaxed posture to life.
Stitch this portrait on 14-count Aida fabric for a charming home-décor piece or heartfelt gift for a dog-loving friend. The soft, cool palette and introspective subject make it well-suited to a bedroom or study where its gentle presence can inspire calm reflection.
