| On February 8 of 2007, my beloved Sadie passed away. She was my very first basset hound, and the reason that I fell so deeply in love with the breed. She only had 2 litters during her lifetime, but she loved babies so much that she would nurse any abandoned puppy or kitten. If puppies were ever around, she would instantly start giving milk. Her death was very unexpected. Later, I found out about the major pet food recall, which I had been feeding her one of the named brands. I'll never know for sure what caused her death, but it has certainly made me more aware of what we feed our pets. Sadie was one of a kind, and will be dearly missed. |
| My kids have nick-named this girl, Bug. She is full of life, and loves to be the center of attention. Bug is also looney over puppies! Any and all puppies are HERS!!! It doesn't matter how old they are, or who they belong to, she will steal them and nurse them, which makes it hard for me when she's wanting to nurse 10 week old puppies like they were newborns. Bug is AKC registered, with 58 AKC Champions in her pedigree! |
| This is my 12 year old son's baby, Paula. She was born and raised here. She's currently 3 years old, and desperately wants to be a mommy. Just like Bug, she steals puppies and will give milk, even though she's never had puppies. We may let her have her own babies one day, but that day hasn't come yet. Therefore, she will get an honorable mention on our website! Paula is triple registered with AKC, CKC and NKC, with 58 AKC Champions in her pedigree! |
| The size of our basset hounds are within the AKC breed standard. At maturity, the male basset usually weighs between 55 and 60 pounds, and stands 12, to not more than 15 inches tall at the shoulder. The female is usually about 10 pounds lighter and 1 inch or so shorter than the male.If you are looking for a larger basset hound, please consult your veterinarian before making your decision. Basset Hounds that weigh over 60 pounds, are more likely to have joint problems, back injuries, arthritis, etc......conditions resulting from short little legs, being made to carry a massive weight. |
| This is our trouble maker, Peanut. This photo was taken at around 9 to 10 months of age. To see more updated photos, click on her photo. Peanut is AKC registered and has 68 AKC Champions in her pedigree. |
| Cocoa was born here and is my 5 year old son, Jesse's, doggy. She is 2.5 years old and Clifford is her daddy, as you can tell by her coat pattern. She just had her first litter in September '09! Cocoa is AKC, CKC and NKC registered with 58 AKC Champions in her pedigree. |

| This is our newest female Katie. She has settled in wonderfully, like she's been here her whole life. Before coming to us, she'd been kept in a kennel her whole life and never known the inside of a house. Needless to say, she thinks she's hit the jackpot! She's learned to walk up steps and has managed to figure out the trick to escaping a room by defeated the dreaded baby gate complication. At first, the flash of a camera scared her something awful. She just had to get over it, because mama likes to take tons of photos!!! Now, she loves the attention that photo time brings. You can truly tell that she's very grateful to be here. She's soooo sweet and submissive. I'm so glad that she's now one of ours! |
