Yikes -I would definitely rethink that. Everything glaringly points to a puppy mill.
With that many litters, they are not much more than a glorified puppy mill. I wouldn't believe anything their website says. There recently was a place like this in Texas that was raided. Had a really sweet website, had a "fake front" where they kept a few dogs in their homes for potential visitors, but in the back of the property is where the dogs in their cages were.
These people are charging premium prices for colors that are not allowed within the Beagle standard, just proving that they have no ethics in maintaining the integrity of the beagle as it is defined as a breed.
From their website:
Khakis and Silvers are our babies!(We were the first to start focusing on these!) Their faces can turn tan. Their eyes can also usually be blue or hazel green. Our other rare colors can also have these rare eyes. More examples of colors can be found here:
www.sunshinebeaglepups.com/colors.htm Also, according to the official breed standard, the only acceptable eye color is brown or hazel. If they are purposely breeding blue eyes, they are ignoring the breed standard.
Every breed has an official breed standard that reputable breeders adhere to because it ensures the beagle will remain a beagle or a poodle will remain a poodle, etc. This outfit is intentionally and purposefully breeding dogs that are not within the beagle standard - totally unethical!
They are also charging more for dogs who are outside the size standard of the Beagle, as if this was a good thing - a sure sign of a puppy mill.
And they do absolutely no health testing of the parents, and also state that spaying and neutering are not required - Yet another sign that this screams puppy mill.
I would run as fast as I could from this outfit. If they are this unethical in the most basic of breeding norms, you can just imagine how unethical they are in the parts they won't tell you about.
You would be much better off getting a puppy from a breeder approved by the National Beagle Club, breeders that agree to a certain code of ethics in maintaining the beagle the way it was meant to be.
Here is a link to approved breeders:

I'll have to keep thinking about it (the escaping and howling are giving me a little concern) and check out petfinder if we decide on one. 
She came from a hunting family, was bread to hunt, but she's a good girl. We have trained her to not run off, she doesn't climb out of our gate, which she probably could if she wanted to. She is a bit on the timid side, personality wise, so perhaps that's why she doesn't escape.
She is 22 lbs, and does shed, but its managable. She's great with our 3 kids and all the friends that come to play.
Their website also stresses that they are selective as to whom their dogs go to, and that they turn many people away? Sounds like you know more than I about the breeding standards though, so perhaps you are correct.
