I want to get a beagle (hopefully adopt one from a rescue center). But I don’t want a really big one. I’ve seen Beagles who are only 20 pounds and I like them, do they have a specific name? Other Beagles I see are tall and weigh up to 30 pounds. Do they have different names?

There is also a Harrier which looks like a larger beagle

The AKC recognizes two types of beagles. 15″ beagles, and 13″ beagles. They are measured from the ground to the top of their shoulders or withers. A rescue center may not recognize the different sizes, but I’m sure you’ll be able to go and find one that is a suitable size for you

known as a pocket Beagle.
They typically grew to about nine inches at the shoulder with shorter legs and pointed snouts, according to paintings of this era that included pets. During the days of Henry VIII, even smaller types of Beagle, called a glove Beagle grew to about the size of a gauntlet, the metal hand covering of a suit of armor. This breed was very popular with the Royal families of the time.
Today there are very few Beagles that stop growing at about 10 inches, but dogs of this size are not recognized by the American Kennel Club as a breed. This shortness of these types of Beagle is considered to be caused by poor breeding or shortened legs, or dwarfing caused by chondodystrophy.
There are two main breeds recognized today as the 13 inch, which includes Beagles up to 131 inches at the shoulder. The 15-inch breed, which are Beagles between 13 and 15 inches at the shoulder. It is rare for a Beagle to grow over 15 inches tall and no breeder can guarantee the maximum size of a Beagle puppy, but by about nine months they will have reached their adult size
hope this helps ^-^ this site has a lot of info

You cant be really picky when it comes to the size of beagle you want. Chances are, you’re going to have a rough time finding the one you want a rescue centre. There are 15″ and 13″, but just adopt the first beagle that melts your heart. You can’t say that if you went to the humane society, saw a beautiful beagle with big loving eyes, and a great personality, that you’d just walk away because hes just a little too big?
