the story of my previous bedbug experience.

Agreed. I haven’t had bedbugs myself, but two of my friends battled them. And I posted here about my war with fleas, which took over my entire house before I had the sense to realize I had a problem. From all this I have learned that a relentless and repeated attack using every single means at your disposal is the way to go.
I can’t imagine it’s specific to beagles. It was a dog trained to give an alert when it smelled bed bugs. Beagles are small, good-natured dogs that have an excellent sense of smell, so maybe that’s why, or maybe the trainer just likes beagles.
