are basset hounds ever content?

my 8 month old girl gives me a run for my money. i love her to death. but i swear she is never content. i think the only way she’d like to live is on a giant plot of land somewhere sniffing all day long. it’s my life’s ambition to one day give that to her but for now we live in the ghetto my love 😂 she’s so untrustworthy and gave me quite a scare when she must’ve ate something bad and developed bad case of colitis. even with 100% supervision she is determined to harm herself. I try my best with what i have to make her days fun. but i set any boundaries at all and she gives me an attitude.

Kids basset hound costumes

My son who is a typically sized 7 year old wants to be a basset hound for Halloween. Does any one know of a costume that will fit his size? When he told me what he wanted to be for Halloween, he immediately went and laid on our basset and hugged him.

My hound doggies!

Found this subreddit and love seeing everyone post photos of their precious bassets so figured I’d do the same!

This is Oliver (one eye) and Posey! I never had a dog growing up. When I started dating my wife, she had just got Oliver. We will never not have a basset hound <3

Potty…again

We are about to pull our hair out. I know Bassets pee often and can be difficult to potty train, but our 4 month old puppy is peeing every 10 to 15 minutes and taking her out that often is just about impossible. Anybody have any insight?

Question about coming into “season”

For context my little girl will be 2 in September, and I have never had an intact female before. All of my other females have been spayed. What are the signs to keep watch out for in order to keep the male dogs away from her when she starts her cycle? When she does come into heat, I will get her some doggy diapers to help with unwanted discharge and also if a male does get into my fenced in yard where she is while going to potty. I do let her stay outside by herself during the morning, just to let her get some fresh air and exercise. I do plan on breeding her, but not right now. I need to have her umbilical hernia fixed before she gets bread to keep her safe and no risk ot her health. Any advice will be appreciated

Daisy Mae sure does love our weekend morning routine

We hit a different park near the community center hoping to do some shopping at the farmers market after our walk, but they moved the market to the other side of town, so we the smaller close to our house. Was hoping our walk would tire her out for her bath, but she got her second wind and serious case of the zoomies around the house when I tried to dry her off
