Oh Basset Hounds… the breed that has become one of the most popular of all dog breeds in the United States (and among celebrities)…
Is it because of their devoted, gentle, tenacious, friendly, sweet-tempered, affectionate personality? or all of the above?
With his placid personality and short-statured yet noble appearance, the Basset Hound is a popular family companion, as well as a slow-paced but keen hunting dog.
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.
Some are dignified, but most are clownish. Almost all are reliably good-natured, sociable, and peaceful with everyone — strangers, children, and other pets, too.
But as popular as they’ve become, you might be shocked to know that they are the worst dogs to live with… and there are 19 reasons for it.
Check out the 19 reasons why Basset Hounds are the worst dogs to live with on the next page:
