This research aimed to determine glucose levels of beagle maintained by Sports Association of Pig Hunting (PORBI) in Kenagarian Mungo Sub-district Luak District Lima Puluh Kota, West Sumatera. Blood samples were collected from 20 beagles. Blood sampling was performed during fasting time and two hours postprandial. Data were analyzed with analysis of Chisquare (x2). The results showed that mean glucose level in the fasting state beagle was 63.45±11.84 mg/dl and two hours postprandial was 93.45±12.52 mg/dl. The statistical test results showed no significant difference (P>0.05) between the frequency of feeding and supplementary feeding on blood glucose levels. To conclude, the average of beagle blood glucose levels is still in normal range. There is a difference in blood glucose between two hours postprandial and a fasting blood glucose levels and the difference between hunting frequency and giving multivitamins injection on blood glucose levels, but there was no difference on blood glucose levels between the frequency feeding and supplemental feeding.Key words: beagle, glucose levels, hunting, multivitamins
