Basset Hounds for You

Seriously spent my entire two hour lunch in the courtyard of my office complex because my puppy, Atlas, loves one of the maintenance workers. I’m serious when I say my dog LOVES him! One of my patients canceled so I had a two hour lunch. I was excited! I figured an hour outside with Atlas and an hour to work on charts. Nope, all two hours outside. They weren’t kidding about the stubbornness. Anyways, after two hours of ignoring me to try and play with Jose Luis (while I was standing there mind you), I told Atlas we had to go back to work. After 10 minutes of his attitude (pictured) I had to pick him up and carry him into the office. He literally faked dead and floppy bodied. I think karma has caught up with me.

Our Willow is 5 months old and she has this odd thing with her third eyelid wanting to be shut. I know Basset hounds have naturally droopy and red eyes. The vet said it may be allergies, but wants us to see an Ophthalmologist in about a week. Any suggestions?

Our sweet girl is 10 months old. We noticed a this evening that she has formed squishy lump on the top of her head. After researching there is too many variables to pin down what it may be. We found that it may be common in Basset Hounds. I am wondering if anyone has experienced this with their hounds. We have a call into the vet. The after hours on call said it may or may not be of concern and said the office would call back tomorrow to schedule an appointment.
