I want to be as prepared as possible for this puppy! A basset hound has been my dream dog since I was 7 and got a basset-lab mix, so knowing i’m getting a basset hound in less than a year is so surreal to me.

Tell me: exercise, meals, ear cleaning routines, training advice, and personality quirks. I want to know everything.

I know the answer is obvious but I’d like to show him these comments to hopefully get this ridiculous notion out of his head. He lives on a different continent so not like he would even be caring for my dog 😂

Hello I have an adopted year old basset hound and we are dealing with issues when it comes to him and using the restroom inside the house.

For context at home we have a doggy door for him and he has no issue with going to the restroom inside our home. But because my spouse and I work opposite schedules we need assistance from our parents to watch him some days. That is because of separation anxiety. The reason for this post is because I need help and tips to help with his problem. He pees inside our parents homes even though they have other dogs that he gets along with and that there is access to a bathroom outside via doggy doors.

He has no issues some of the time but there are instances where he just pees on a bed or a couch. Is there anything anybody could tell me to help with this? Thank you very much.

hi everyone! we just adopted our 10 week old basset hound, Hank, yesterday. i know potty training can be a lot harder with basset hounds so pls i need tips and ideas. we are crate training him and we live in an apartment (only for a few more months then we’re getting a house!!) we tried to take him for a walk today and he decided he liked to lay in the grass more than walk and then went to the bathroom immediately when we went inside… multiple times… we have pee pads by the doors so he can associate that with going outside and we have 1-2 hour timers to take him outside to go potty. we also chose a designated spot right outside to help with routines.
