Help!Need advise from the basset hive

My boy is 8, he goes to doggy daycare. I’ve switched him to an enrichment based, less running and jumping,nap time program. He comes home so sore, he can barely move. He does zoomie a lot.The next day he’s fine. So, do I let him have his fun day,knowing he’s miserable that night? He’s on every joint supplement you can think of, vet approved. Is it time to just let him be an old man? He loves it and gets soo excited on his day.

harness / collar / walk help !!!

My almost 9 month basset hound is a PULLER !!!!! and a pancaker if he sees any other dog he’ll lay down and then lunge to play (it’s all in good fun but not every dog can play !!!!) he also pulls and darts into the street / if he sees a bird whatever. It has reached a point where he’s gonna get us hit by a car. I have tried the easy walk (he can wiggle outa that one with some intense pulls & this does not help the flat basset, he also hates it and would run away from when I pulled it out) and I’ve tried the Ruffwear but he is still walking me! Any recommendations are welcome ! I’ve ordered both a prong collar and a training collar & want to see if anyone has had positive experiences with either. I’ve attached some photos for example and also viewing pleasure 🙂

Hip dysplasia

Hi it’s Franklin Cuddlesworth. I’ve featured here before and I have an update. I’ve been diagnosed with hip dysplasia and I need a non-invasive surgery called Juvenile pubic symphysiodesis (JPS). I was hoping to hear from other Basset’s who have had this and had positive outcomes! Thanks, Frankie
