I am thinking about adding another dog to my pack and I really like more lowkey dogs, BUT I’m not sure whether a basset would be a good fit or not. I take my dogs on long hikes, and like to do a ton of walking, and it seems like a lot of bassets don’t really want to do all of that?
I mean, all dogs are individuals of course and I’m sure some do, but while researching it seems like a lot of people have bassets that will just lay down and decide they’re done, LOL! I have pugs, one rescue and two from a reputable breeder, and all of em’ wanna do whatever I’m doing.
Hike 8 km? Yes! Sit on the couch for two days straight because the weather is terrible? Also yes!
I’m thinking bassets are way more independent LOL. More of a mind of their own. What are all your bassets like? What is typical for this breed?
