Description
Dog Breed: Basset Hound / Dachshund / Mixed (short coat). Hello! My name is Harvey, I came to OBARR as a stray and sadly no one came to claim me. I am a very gentle, sweet and loving little guy. For my age I do not act it at all... I still have so much energy in me but also love to lounge around as well. I am a major foodie and love to have treats and snacks those are definately a way to my heart! I also speak to you when food is involved because thats how much I love to eat! I have been Neutered, fully vaccinated, and current on preventives. I was 4dx combo tested but tested positive for Lyme and anaplasmosis. They are tick-borne diseases that are treatable with round of antibiotics for a month. If you want a handsome little guy like me please visit our website (olivebranchwv) to fill out an application to be approved to come and adopt me!

Breed overview
Overview:
The Basschshund is an engaging mixed breed, a delightful cross between the sturdy Basset Hound and the spirited Dachshund. Originating from the desire for a companion dog with a charming personality, these hybrids typically inherit the long, low-slung body of both parents, often with the distinctive long, floppy ears of the Basset. Their coats can vary widely in color and texture, reflecting the diversity of their lineage. Temperamentally, Basschshunds are known for being affectionate, loyal, and sometimes a little stubborn, making early training and socialization crucial. They are generally good with families and can adapt well to apartment living, provided they receive regular walks and mental stimulation. While generally healthy, potential owners should be aware of possible inherited conditions like intervertebral disc disease (IVDD) due to their long backs, and ear infections, common in dogs with pendulous ears.
