Basset Hound Information

The Basset Hound is one of the most recognizable dog breeds in the world. With short legs, long ears and a droopy face, this pup looks sad and forlorn. But don’t worry – they are actually very happy pups, just on the mellow side. One might say lazy.

Patient and kind, the Basset Hound makes an excellent family pet. You do need to walk him, especially considering the risk of obesity in this breed, but not as much as you would other dogs. If you have a mellow, low-key lifestyle, this is the dog for you.
