Beagles can definitely be "voiciferous". They often have a loud ringing bark or howl that is used in the field to claim a rabbit line (trail). Not all indoor beagles are howlers; however, the beagles that are most likely to be howlers are the ones who do not get enough exercise and activity or the ones who have developed separation anxiety. The best way to approach the decision of whether or not to get a beagle is to discuss your home and lifestyle with a beagle breeder in advance. They may be able to help you determine whether or not a beagle would be a good fit for you. While not a guarantee against howling, it is likely that a beagle in the right home will not be a noisy one.
BTW, We have had several beagles for pets in our condo and they are quieter than every single little toy dog in our complex!
