Description
Dog Breed: Labrador Retriever / Basset Hound / Mixed (short coat). Emmy was 1 of a litter of 10 puppies adopted in 2022.. Mom is a Bassett mix, Dad is a Retriever mix. She was returned to our rescue recently. Emmy is a sweet girl who wants nothing more than affection. She would do nest in a home that doesn't have alot of traffic, and is either an adult home or a home with older, respectful children as Emmy can be anxious around younger children. She's currently in a home with other dogs and has done well with all of them. She does best with calm dogs, although with slow introductions she's acclimated with the more active and 'in your face' foster in the home. She also did well with the cats in her foster home. She's absolutely adorable, with the short basset legs, and eyes that just say I love you. Emmy bonds easily and will be the most loyal companion. She does gravitate more to women, and needs slow introductions to men. Emmy needs someone who will guide her with appropriate responses, something she wasn't afforded in her previous home. Our rescue will provide a trainer if needed at our cost. Emmy is about 3 years old, spayed, microchipped, up to date on core vaccines. Interested in adopting me?

Breed overview
Overview:
The Bassetdor, a delightful cross between the Basset Hound and the Labrador Retriever, is a relatively new designer breed gaining popularity for its unique blend of traits. Originating from the desire to combine the Basset's laid-back nature with the Lab's trainability and friendliness, this medium-sized dog typically inherits the Basset's characteristic long ears and short legs, often paired with the Lab's athletic build and expressive eyes. Their coat can vary in color and texture, often reflecting the common hues of both parent breeds. Temperamentally, Bassetdors are known for being affectionate, loyal, and generally good-natured, making them excellent family pets. While adaptable, their moderate energy levels mean they thrive with regular exercise and may not be ideally suited for very small apartments without sufficient outdoor activity. Prospective owners should be aware of potential health concerns inherited from both sides, such as hip and elbow dysplasia from the Labrador and disc issues or ear infections common to the Basset Hound.
