Female Beagle, has to be a puppy, from or around Connecticut. Also can not be from a "Puppy Mill."
Answers:
No person would or should be selling a puppy a few weeks old. It's just way too young to be taken away from it's mother. Puppies should be 8 weeks MINIMUM before it leaves it's mom and littermates.
Go to AKC and look for breeders in your area.

Your best bet would be to go to AKC.org and search for beagle breeders in your area. There may not be a pup available right now, but you should be able to find a quality breeder.
I often browse puppyfind.com.
although some people are going to beseech you to adopt, ultimately it's up to you.
Good for you - no puppy mills is right.
Now take the responsible view one step further and do a search for beagle rescues in your area - you might find the perfect pet for you and you will give a homeless dog a forever home.
Good luck! Hope you find your ideal beagle companion.
Search certified breeders in Connecticut. Get in contact with them and when they have puppies you can buy one. Make sure the breeder has a good rep.

Please rescue a dog and save a life! Thank you!
Only puppymillers sell pups over the internet. Beagle puppies should be about 10-12 weeks old before they are taken from their mamadog.
For a referal to a responsible breeder, contact the National Beagle Club:

Please remember that AKC registration ALONE is not a guarantee of quality.
Here are some suggested questions one can use to determine if a breeder is truly responsible:
1. Is she an AKC registered breeder of good standing and an active member of her breed Parent Club?
2. Are there AKC Champions listed on the pedigree, showing that the breeder spends her time %26 money to prove the quality of her breeding stock through competition?
3. Are all the animals kept in clean, comfortable, healthy, loving circumstances?
4. Did the breeder conduct extensive interviews with you and every member of your family?
5. Have the sire %26 dam received all available health clearances, (eg. OFA Hip %26 Eye, Thyroid testing, THESE VARY FOR EACH BREED)
6. Is she willing to honestly discuss any possible genetic defects that may exist in her line?
7. Does she have a Sales Contract?
8. Does the contract contain a clause stipulating that you spay or neuter the puppy before it reaches a certain
age?
9. Does the contract contain a clause stating that if at any time in the puppy's life, you can no longer care for it, it must be returned to the breeder? (This ensures that no animal bred by this breeder will ever end up in a shelter).
10. Will the breeder maintain contact with you for the life of the puppy to answer questions and help in general?
