Description
Dog Breed: Basset Hound. Adoption Fee: $500. Bob is a very handsome 14-month old basset who loves to play with other dogs his size, is very affectionate, and was deemed “perfect” by the vet staff who saw him for all his vaccinations and vetting! He is house-broken and a very happy boy. Bob will do best in a child-free home with another dog as playmate. He is currently being fed separately from other dogs just to make sure he doesn’t eat the other dog’s food! He needs a home experienced with dogs that have exhibited mild resource-guarding behaviors, or willing to follow our guidance on handling this behavior trait. Bob would make a great addition to an adult home!

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.
