Adopting a basset mix

Hi,

I am in the process of adopting a basset mix, he is seven months old and I wondered at what age bassets usually reach their adult height.

I am also looking for any feeding recommendations. I have always owned large breed dogs and I feed twice a day, dry kibble with bone broth and a probiotic added.

I plan on training in the same manner I have trained my blood hound in the past for manners since obedience may be to much to ask but Im going to try. Lol

Just looking for any basset specific advice.

Thanks

Potty Training

Our basset was born in March. We brought him home at the beginning of May. We have worked tirelessly on potty training but there doesn’t seem to be a light at the end of the tunnel. We will go outside on a leash after play, nap (in crate), meal times and honestly more, but he still decides to pee in the middle of the floor. Any advice? Should we be worried about diabetes possibly because there’s no sound reason I could think of for him to want to pee inside?

Coincidence or manifestation?

My dad found this whilst clearing out my grandma’s garage. She must have picked it up years ago in a car boot sale – it’s almost like she knew it’d come in handy one day.

It even has a faint resemblance to my Moomin! Safe to say it has a new home with me 😊

P.S my family haven’t previously had an interest in Bassets until I got one, which has me convinced my grandma was predicting my future back when she got it some 20/30 years ago
