    As a retired person, yes I was blessed by getting a Rescue Basset 8 years ago. I always told people she was a perfect fit, because she sleeps 20 hours a day. Maybe not twenty, but if you are a person that has a more sedentary life, Bassets are perfect. Thank you for the video.

    Please make sure no one in the family is allergic to dogs, hounds are hi allergen, you must love the constant drool and it being shook on walls,mirrors,ceilings,my glasses,and TV! They are constant shedders,24,7/365! Bassetts are also prone to yeast infection making them stink like rotten corn chips there for they need a very specific diet, a keto type food or make it yourself, fresh,! They are not a good watch dog, they will help the intruder to your valuables as long as they get their treats! How do i know all this info,the basset is my boyfriends, lol ugh!

    Lazy Hound Racing, Thank you for your service. I'm so sorry about you service men and women coming home with PTSD. But thank heavens we have solutions for that, with 4 legs, (or maybe 3 or even 2). I'm not a vet, but I consider our cats my (respiratory) therapy cats. They have wakened me from sleep when I am too tired to use my inhaler or nebulizer. Calvin, in particular, will head bump me in the face, rather hard, doing his kitty 'chirrp', or Mews, bopp my nose, cheek, or press his face against my nose till I wake up. Hobbes sometimes does this too. He meows loudly, too. Neither one leaves my side, till they are satisfied that I am breathing easier. Sometimes, they will stay with me the rest of the night. They aren't trained to do this, they do this all on their own! Our hound, and my husband are attached at the hip. She is a gift to both of us, from our daughters, but she has her daddy wrapped around her big paws.😄 He will be lost when her time comes. Hope we have a couple more good years with her. She just turned 15. Quality Canned food has improved her spirit, agility, and life so far!

I’m a vet student and I when I read about them being stubborn I thought “oh I can deal with that” but I underestimated it 100%. I also got the most energetic basset ever (my vets told me this). But I wouldn’t trade it for a thing. He’s a cuddle bug, he’s friendly, all my neighbors adore him, and he sticks by me every second of the day. I love him to pieces 🥰

He would lay in the pool when he got hot and run around it with his nose under the water. Loved that pool and we had fun watching him play in it. Unfortunately he escaped under the fence and got hit by a car. I still miss him dearly, called him Muttly.

    I was blessed to have a Bassethound for 13.5 years. She was a rescue from a shelter. Daisy Lu was my soulmate. I miss her so very much! She even learned how to open the fridge and help herself to frozen meatballs. She kept me as busy as a two year old child. When we moved, Daisy Lu helped me get to know my neighbors. I would love to get a Basset again, perhaps when I am retired.

All our lives are too short, please do it as soon as you can, and thank you for sharing your sweet girl with all of us. I love that you gave me a mental image of Daisy Lu raiding the refrigerator for frozen meatballs. Now, let’s take a moment to close our eyes, sniff briskly and inhale deeply, and remember the lovely rich and complex body fragrance of our glorious dirty bassets! 👃

    I got a Basset, for the first and only time, late last year. His name is Dave. He weighs 60 pounds, is six years old, and like no other dog I've ever had. He just seems so much more present and interactive and personable towards me than the other dogs. He's sweet and gentle and gets along perfectly with my poodle-mix, Louis, and chihuahua-mix, Rita, although, he's a bit wary of the chi, as she's fearless and will take his food. He's stubborn and refuses to e trained if he doesn't want to. He whines when he wants something to eat or my attention or to go outside. He loudly bays at other dogs, people, cats. He's very affectionate and will not be denied a pat on the head or a kiss on the face. He's lazy, except when I take him out in the fields and drop his leash, he will take off and disappear through the sage and prairie grass, chasing wild hares, for about 30 minutes. But he somehow knows when I and Rita and Louie are ready to jump in the car and leave for home, and he mysteriously shows up. He often sleeps on his back, totally relaxed and vulnerable, which I take as a high compliment. His paws are huge and fleshy, with giant toenails, that remind me of crocodile feet. His eyes are long, oval, and light brown, more human than the round black button eyes of my poodle and chi. He has freckles across his big white muzzle and long satin ears, that I have to clip up when he eats or they get sticky with food. est of all, he comes and plops his big head down on my lap or chest, anytime he feels like it, just expecting to be loved and admired, which he is. I'm a 80-year-old woman and found him too much and too strong and heavy to handle for the first few moths I had him, (He still is.) But when I thought of taking him to the Basset rescue, I would become horribly sad and teary, so I finally just accepted how much trouble he is and it changed my life. Because of Dave, I've become a better person. When he steals food off my plate now, right in front of me, I don't get upset at him. I just say, " no Dave", then wash the plate. When he wets inside (he does this if I don't give him a tasty dinner), I just say, "no, Dave", then clean it up. When he gets into the kitchen's waste basket a strows it all over the apartment, I just say, "no, Dave", and pick it all up. I've learned to control my negative reaction to things, in general, and just deal with it in a calm and productive way. Thanks, Dave, for being a teacher, a friend, and a really cool companion.

She used to get in trouble for stealing food from my son. Keep your garbage in the bathroom when your not home or you will have it spilled everywhere. Yes I also agree scent work is great!

    We’ve had rescued Basset Hounds for years. They are like potato chips…once you have one…They are great loving companions. I am severely disabled by chronic pain and my current Basset companion taught himself not to step on me. We have steps up to my bed and he waits at the bottom until I move my legs. He likes our cat, but sniffed her one time too many and caught a claw to the nose…now he gives her a wide berth, lol. He is a ridiculous dog and makes us laugh. I recommend them as family pets. They do require a consistent, GENTLE hand when training.

Our darling Iris passed about (5 yrs) now but we'll always missed her awesome funny quirks and some are very similar to the Bassets, I'm personally into more laid back breed like the Bassets and Bulldogs. But Rosie it's super precious and very mellow, thanks for the video and We'll keep checking in for more Rosie videos. All the best from Louisiana.

    Brush your Basset's teeth from when they're a baby. Because they are so low energy they tend to get a lot of anaerobic buildup on their teeth (learned the heartbreaking way about this). Healthy mouth = long life = win win win win win. 100% agree on your list, best breed ever.

    Don’t leave them for too long , they can be destructive for a couple of years if left alone to long because they are pack animals . They like exercise more than you think , both Bassets I had got two things as they got older Spondylitis of the spine which will mean tablets for the last couple of years , cod liver oil helps and a yeast in their skin folds can cause an irritation which we found Maloseb shampoo neat from the vets cleared it up after a lot of trials of other products. They really are untrainable and are led by scent , which makes them deaf but there is no other breed that gives such joy . Persevere and they will touch your heart like no other dog .

I got a working dog and had him for a little but he I stopped being able to take him to work and I had to rehome him (to a huge farm an hour south of me) and I honestly happy to do so, not happy to see him go but I knew he wasn't the right dog for me. I've really been thinking lately, after taking in a pregnant cat who had 5 kittens in my closet, raising the kittens, and remembering how little I like the majority of cats that I need another Basset.

    Hi Ryan and Rosie - cool video! I have a Beagle, and would say most things you said apply to the Beagle, too - APART FROM the energy levels. My oh my do young Beagles have crazy energy, constantly on their little feet beagling about. But super fun to live with, train, and witness their little noses at work. I'd be seriously interested in a Basset hound somewhere down the line, once our Beagle has grown into a halfway responsible adult, mostly because they seem to have all the pro's of the Beagle, but are way calmer.
