I believe the answer is:

beagles

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'for dogs' is the definition.
(beagle is a kind of dog)

I can't explain the remainder of the clue.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for beagles that I've seen before include "Short-legged hounds" , "Dogs" , "These hounds bag eels badly" , "Hunting hounds" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
