One thing I've noticed is that she is starting to shy away when we have several people around or the neighbors bring their dogs over. She loves the neighbors dogs and she'll be fine for awhile, then I'll find her off in a corner of the yard somewhere by herself. I just find that odd since beagles are bred to be part of a hunting pack and really don't enjoy being by themselves. She's like our little wallflower now. I'm just wondering if she would do better if we got another dog.

She's doing just fine now. She def had a change in personality. A little more settled but not any more timid with her playing withe dogs strangely enough. The next few days after the incident she was pretty knocked on her ass but she'd sit outside and just stare off into pace contemplating life i think. She's a good looking sog and has turned out to have pretty good personality. Sh'es a winner.
I think most dogs do better with other dogs. They are pack animals and most tend to settle when another dog comes in. We have three and our middle dog, aka: "the strangler" was damn straight crazy wound tight before we got the puppy. Ever since though she has matured a good bit and become much more settled and a bit motherly. The oldest bog is just a old biddie who'd be one of those widowed 80 year olds bitching and moaning about everything if she were human. Every now and then she gets a kick in her step and will roll with the younger crew though. Then she'll take a nap. It is good for her though.
