Hi Joan!
I just realized tonight I never got in touch! It's because we are so busy with Blue! She is the best. Her temperament is perfect. She is the perfect puppy. We love her so much. She has already brought so much joy to our lives, and we love training and taking care of her. She starts her obedience classes on Monday! She barely even needs obedience classes, she is so perfect.
Thank you so much for this wonderful beagle! She is perfect!!

Smart, stunningly beautiful, loving, and kind, are all characteristics of a puppy from Everwind Beagles. I brought my puppy home at 4 months of age. She was adorable, potty trained to a litter box, loving, and full of puppy enthusiasm. She quickly became trained to potty outside within a week. Joan Wurst always kept in touch with me and helped me bring my puppy into the show ring. You will always be a member of the "Everwind" family once you bring your puppy home. My choice to purchase a beagle puppy from Everwind Beagles was based on superior health and genetics, along with a breeder of merit. In fact, two years later I brought another Everwind beagle home.

We wanted to take advantage of this puppy nap time to say words cannot express our gratitude to you for the little beagle who has made our house a home! She is a fuzzy ball of pure joy, and we’re having a blast training and socializing her with friends and family. Of course, as the newest and cutest resident of the neighborhood, she’s also meeting fawning neighbors every time she goes outside (and graciously accepting belly rubs and ear scratches from each one). We’re doing pretty well with sit, stay, come, and lie down, and she’s a champ at using the litter box, which is a world better than puppy pads. Thank you so much for that tip!
We had the first vet appointment last week, and she did awesome. Our vet even complimented your work after looking over the puppy contract and examining her. We can’t wait until she’s got all her shots and can start exploring the rest of our big little world, and we owe it all to you. I can’t tell you how daunting finding a great beagle breeder was at the start of our puppy search. We spent months researching and contacting breeders, trying to ask the right questions and find the right fit. You were so thoughtful, thorough, and lovely from day one that we didn’t hesitate to get on your waitlist and then drive six hours out of the city to pick up our new puppy from Everwind Ranch. Clearly it takes a winning person to breed such winning beagles. And even though our beagle won’t be in the ring, she’s already won us over.
Thank you, Joan! Truly.

We have previously owned two 15” tri color beagles that were from the same litter. Both girls lived to almost 15 years old. We knew that we wanted another one and so I took it upon myself to begin the research. It became quickly apparent to me that of all the breeders I researched, the one that quickly rose to the top of the list was Joan Wurst and her Everwind Beagles. If one is looking for a best-in-class breeder of 13” and 15” beagles in the United States, look no further. Joan knows the breed better than anyone and has been showing her dogs and breeding them for many years. She has bred and shown champions and grand champions. These dogs have excelled in competitions. She is also an accomplished agility trainer.
In addition to her long list of accomplishments both in the show ring and as a nationally and internationally recognized AKC “Breeder of Merit,” Joan is also a very special person. She is a kind, caring and compassionate human being. This became very apparent in all the many communications that we had leading up to our arrival to pick up our puppy (Everwind’s Sweet Coconut aka Coco). Meeting Joan was a treat. It was very easy to tell that Joan truly loves her dogs like family. They were not only all beautiful examples of the beagle breed…they were also very well cared for which is a critical sign of a good breeder. We have established a close friendship with Joan and plan to take our “Coco” back to Everwind Ranch for a reunion when she’s a bit older. We can’t wait!

I cannot give enough stars to speak to my experience with Everwind Beagles. From the first inquiry email I sent to Joan asking about beagles as a family pet, Joan was with us every step of the way to help us welcome our new pup home. We are so grateful for all she does to make her pets as amazing as our little guy. He is the most handsome, healthy, and joyous dog we could have asked for. Everywhere we go we are asked where we got such a beauty! As an animal lover it was of the utmost importance that we got our dog from a breeder who put care and consideration into the life being created. Joan was beyond qualified and experienced and has a heart of gold.
Forever grateful,

My husband and I have always loved beagles. He has had several beagles in his life and I have always been partial to pretty brown-faced, long-eared beagle puppies! Our kids are grown and we knew it was time to find for our own beagle pup. We found Everwind on AKC Marketplace and fell In love immediately! Her beagles are striking and very talented in the show world.
Joan was very interactive through the entire process and sent us pictures and videos regularly. She answered questions very promptly and made us feel our inquiries were never an imposition. She introduced us to our puppy’s parents the day we took our puppy home. They were so well behaved! We noticed immediately how calm and extremely friendly they were!
We highly recommend Everwind to anyone who is looking for a high-quality, confident, fun loving beagle. We feel Joan is a class act and we are very thankful we found her! We named our puppy Molly. She has been a dream. She is ten weeks old now and has slept through the night since day two, knows her name, fetches, and sits on command. She is very lovable too. Many neighbors and passersby stop to inquire about her. She is stunning and so irresistible!!!
Your search has come to an end with Everwind!

We absolutely recommend Joan Wurst and Everwind Ranch Beagles. Joan readily answered any questions we had and welcomed us to come and visit her and her Beagles. Her house was clean and all of her Beagles were happy and healthy. We liked the fact that her puppies are all litter box trained. That has made having a puppy so much easier. She sent us pictures and videos of our puppy until we could take her home at 8 weeks of age and has kept in contact with us afterwards. Joan truly cares about her Beagles.

“Our family lost our 14-year old beagle to health issues in December 2019. Shortly after putting our dog down, our daughters (ages 8-10) were pushing us hard for a beagle puppy. We eventually caved and began researching breeders in the Pittsburgh area. During the early stages of the processes we didn’t have any luck, many breeders didn’t even return our phone calls!
Eventually, we were referred to Joan, owner of Everwind Beagles. From the moment we met Joan we knew something was different, a good different! Joan spent time getting to know our family and then she gave us insight into her background raising championship show beagles. Joan then shared her faith in Christ and how she uses beagle breeding as a way to share her faith with others. What an amazing and unique way to minister God’s love, what better way than to do it through beautiful, tail-wagging, floppy-eared beagles! After these conversations with Joan, my wife and I agreed that we would not purchase a beagle puppy from anyone else, period!
We eventually visited Joan’s farm and met all of her beagles. We have never seen so many perfect examples of the beagle breed. Joan’s dogs are absolutely beautiful and you could clearly see the love she has for her dogs. We are now home with Rhett, our 14-week old puppy. Rhett is a wonderfully tempered beagle. Every time we walk him in our neighborhood someone stops us and tells us what a beautiful dog he is.
When we purchased Rhett from Everwind, not only did we get a wonderful dog, we also inherited a new friend in Joan. And we couldn’t be happier with both!”

This tiny beagle is the most precious creature! We are truly in love!
I can’t tell you how many neighbors have flown out of their homes and run across the street to see him! I’m afraid we’re going to cause an accident! People constantly walk and drive by and ask if he’s real! We even had the mail lady make a u-turn on a busy street just to see him.
Not only is he gorgeous, he’s playful, very cuddly and super friendly. He’s highly intelligent and is picking up on training very quickly. He has had nothing but positive interactions with people of all ages.
He is a confident little man who isn’t fazed by anything. He’s been grabbing our 10 year old beagle, Hunter’s leash and walking him around our back yard! Hunter still needs to warm up to him. We’re hoping he’ll come around soon.
I cannot tell you how much joy he is bringing into our lives and the smiles he’s bringing to everyone’s faces! I will be forever grateful for your willingness to share one of your exquisite beagles with us!
We’ll never be able to thank you enough!

We bought our puppy from Joan at Everwind Farm about eight months ago and it was one of the best decisions we ever made! I highly recommend Joan without any reservations. Joan made the process so easy. She is so knowledgeable and experienced-she patiently and honestly answered all of our questions without any pressure. And he is the best dog! He has been so easy to train and is so much fun! We literally can't take him out without someone stopping us to remark about how handsome he is. He has such a wonderful disposition as he loves all people and other dogs. He has brought so much joy to our entire family!

Joan Wurst is a very friendly and extremely knowledgeable dog breeder. We got two puppies from her, and both of their temperaments are great for our household with young children. Joan understood the traits in a dog that were compatible with our household to select the puppies that would be a good match for our family. She not only looked at the personality of each puppy in the litter but also how they interacted with each other to find us the perfect pair. Our girl is more reserved while our boy is more outgoing, but they get along tremendously and compliment each other very well. Throughout the communication we had regarding the puppies, it was very clear that she cares about all her dogs and wants them to thrive in their new homes. Joan has been fantastic since our first contact, up through us sending updates and pictures months afterward. She has given us excellent advice on food, vitamins, training, vaccinations, and vet care even after we brought them home. Our puppies are healthy bundles of joy in our home, and we can't recommend Everwind Beagles enough!
Thanks,

We could not be happier with our experience with Everwind Beagles. Joan was absolutely wonderful to work with. She was extremely responsive and answered inquiries quickly and thoroughly. Once we were able to pick up our baby we could not be more delighted. She is beautiful, of course, but more importantly her disposition is lovely. She is smart, friendly with people and other dogs, and has taken to training very well. A true love bug, she is the perfect addition to our family.

Thanks again!

Beagles are like potato chips you cannot just have one especially if they are Everwind Beagles!
My name is Rain Shifflett and I am a beagle addict and it all began with a little beagle boy we call Rev. My grandmother and I loved Snoopy and on her last days on earth she told me that I should never let anyone get in the way of my dreams to go back to showing dogs “Snoopy Dogs”. I messaged a friend of mine and asked her if she knew any Beagle breeders. She passed off the name of a handler who emailed me a list of four different breeders. I was instantly guided to Joan Wurst’s name at the bottom of the list. Putting a phone call into her I told her just what I was looking for. A male show quality. Joan told me she had one and she believed he was sold. I simply told her if it was meant to be it would be. A day later after admiring the picture of this handsome young man I asked Joan to place my name on the puppy list. I received a text that this boy could be mine. I was thrilled and we made all the arrangements. Since this time Everwind’s Bugle Boy of Company B Playing Reveille or “Rev” as he is known at home earned his Champion status at 9 months of age with three major wins under his collar. We are currently working on our GCH. I have Joan and Jordan to thank for this amazing pup and it only goes on from there.
I was called by Joan and said that she had a female that would need a special home since she is just a princess. We welcomed into our life “Meme” or Everwind’s Count Me In. A little spit fire who is no doubt the queen of this household, Meme is my Fast Cat and soon to be Rally contender. Smart, funny, loves to dress up Meme, is an instant hit with all the people she meets. Her first Fast Cat everyone would yell , “ GO MEME” ! Meme also is a customer service dog at our automotive repair shop. While “tricks” are beneath this Queen pup she will have you in stiches with all her antics. So why just have two wonderful Everwind pups when you can have three?
We brought home Everwind’s Dreams Do Come True or “Tara”. After driving out to Joan’s beautiful ranch for the first time we had a reunion of sorts. Jordan and Joan greeted my husband and I along with the return of Meme and Rev for a visit. Tara’s “baby” pictures that I got only made seeing her even more special. Joan walked me through her development from whelping to when she was ready to go. This little girl is not only smart, stubborn she is beautiful. Only 13” she thinks she is as big as the Bloodhound ,who is her best friend, that she rules with an iron paw. This special little girl took a 4-point major at a show the week of Royal Canin in Orlando in 2019. Tara is on track for big things as she continues to mature.
Joan and Jordan put their hearts into not only their dogs but their clients. Always a phone call away or email when I had questions or concerns. Joan helped me get reacquainted with the show world. I joke that I am now Everwind’s south , but one thing is true I am so blessed to be a part of the Everwind family.

"We are so lucky to have found Joan. She is wonderful to work with - honest, kind, caring, and patient. Our Winnie is a great family dog, and people tell us practically every day that she is the most beautiful dog they've ever seen! In addition to being gorgeous, she has a great disposition, has slept all night since her first week at home, and loves kids! We highly recommend Everwind Beagles whether you're looking for a show dog, family dog, or both." - The Davies Family
