Little Lady

Lady had her 3rd shots today and weighed in at just under 13lbs. She’s projected to be around 35lbs full grown. The vet said that’s a small basset hound. Just wondering how big your full grown girl hounds are?

My bassets paw/ankle is not right

My basset is 1 year now and he likes to lean on one paw when he sits down. I’m noticing that the paw he leans on is bending and he is limping. He is in pain I think (I can’t tell he always has the same face and doesn’t make much noise) but he nips me when I try to touch his paw and is very irritated at the moment. He spends most of his time lying down when he used to run around and play all day. I can’t take him to the vet because I’m broke at the moment I don’t know what to do and what exactly is wrong with him. I’m going to insert a picture because he’s too cute not to show.

How do I help a basset who gets car sick?

My basset gets car sick. Throw up all over the car type of car sick. I want to be able to take her places, but it ends up not going well every time I try.

The vet gave us a prescription for motion sickness but it doesn’t work all that well. At this point I’m wondering if it’s anxiety more than motion sickness.

She’s 4 and has been like this since we brought her home.

Does anyone have any tips on how to make car rides more enjoyable for my hound?

I don’t have to take her anywhere (outside of regular vet appointments) but I do think she’d enjoy going ot the beach and park. It’s just getting there that’s the problem.
