[{"role": "system", "content": "The Beagle is a breed of small hound that is similar in appearance to the much larger foxhound. The beagle is a scent hound, developed primarily for hunting hare. With a great sense of smell and superior tracking instinct, the beagle is employed as detection dog for prohibited agricultural imports and foodstuffs in quarantine around the world. The beagle is intelligent but single-minded. It is a popular pet due to its size, good temper, and lack of inherited health problems. Although beagle-type dogs have existed for 2,500 years, the modern breed was developed in Great Britain around the 1830s from several breeds, including the Talbot Hound, the North Country Beagle, the Southern Hound, and possibly the Harrier. Beagles have been depicted in popular culture since Elizabethan times in literature and paintings, and more recently in film, television, and comic books. Snoopy of the comic strip \"Peanuts\" has been called \"the world's most famous beagle\". Dogs of similar size and purpose to the modern beagle can be traced in Ancient Greece back to around the 5th century BC. Xenophon, born around 430 BC, in his \"Treatise on Hunting\" or \"Cynegeticus\" refers to a hound that hunted hares by scent and was followed on foot.\n"}, {"role": "user", "content": "We used to have 2 Beagle puppies, names Brandie and Sally (my kids named them).

That is crazy considering the Westminster Kennel Club Dog show has been held annually in NYC since 1877! "}, {"role": "user", "content": "I love watching the show. I didn't know it was held in NYC.

They have almost nearly 3000 entries that they need 2 days for all dogs to be judged."}]
