Once you go basset, you never go back. At least, that's the buzz on the internet. Basset Hounds are among the most pleasant-natured and easygoing of all breeds.

At a dog show, one can count on seeing cheerfully wagging tails in the Basset Hound ring.

    We rescue senior bassets for Golden Gate Basset rescue in Northern California. Our guys and gals are sometimes too old or frail to get up on the bed anymore even with stairs or a ramp. Sometimes we carefully lift them up for a supervised cuddle time.
