Are beagles wild dogs

Yes. The Beagle breed will eat meat. If you let your Beagle out somewhere to catch a rabbit, mouse, bird, or other game, they will eat it. If trained though, they will bring it back. Beagles are hunting hounds. Also, it's a good idea to keep food from the edge of counters when you have a Beagle in the house. Especially food such as steaks.
