Im not sure my dog is a pure beagle breed. She has long muzzle and long skinny legs. Is that ok for a beagle? Are there other types of beagles with those characteristics?

She's adorable! Certainly not a classic small show type beagle. The hunting beagles can be taller like Poli and she looks somewhat like a walker hound too. Maybe not a full bred beagle but she looks healthy and happy. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach to help you care for Poli.
