I know beagles get 16" but my beagle has grown bigger then that his mom was a 14" and dad about that same aand he was the runt off the litter. The breeder said he'd stay small but he grew alot. I kinda like having a big beagle almost 18", he's not fat but i'm worried that this could lead to un know health problems later, will it? he's 2 now and no worries but still i don't want to be shocked. Thanks ya'll
