Description
Dog Breed: Basset Hound (short coat). Adoption Fee: $200.00. Please met Jax, a sweet, loveable 10 1/2 year old senior who recently came to BRAT when his owner relocated to another town and didn’t think it was fair for Jax to spend so much time alone. Jax has enjoyed being with the other dogs in his foster home, loves meeting new people, rides well in the car, and is crate and house trained. He is a smart little guy who learned to use the doggie door after being shown one time! Snuggling on the couch with his head in your lap is his favorite pastime time. This love bug will be ready for adoption once he has a fatty tumor removed from his back in a few days.

Overview:
The Basset Hound is a charming and distinctive breed, originating in France as a scent hound primarily used for hunting hare and rabbit. Easily recognized by their long, droopy ears, sad-looking eyes, and short, sturdy legs, they possess an incredibly powerful sense of smell. Despite their somewhat mournful expression, Bassets are known for their gentle, laid-back, and affectionate temperament, making them wonderful companions for families. They are generally good with children and other pets, though their stubborn streak and loud baying bark require consistent training. While they can adapt to apartment living with sufficient daily exercise, their tendency to follow their nose means a secure yard is essential. Potential owners should be aware of common health concerns such as ear infections due to their long ears, back issues, and bloat. Overall, the Basset Hound is a loyal and loving, if sometimes comically determined, addition to many homes.
