Brittany Lavery <laverybl@adams.edu> Alamosa, CO U.S.A. - I live in New Jersey now. I lived in Philadelphia PA. I had a vet in Philadelphia who I was happy with until the last time I took my basset in for her shots and checkup. Bailey is very anxious when we go to the Vet. She gets nervous and can't sit still. The assistant was having a hard time getting Bailey's temp. I bought her in so the vet could look at two bumps that appeared on her along with a small growth on her leg. I wanted her nails to be clipped and ears checked. I begged her to give her something so that Bailey would calm down. She gave her a low dose of Valium and insisted Bailey be muzzled. It didn't help and Bailey wouldn't even let the vet check her. She cried about the muzzle and wouldn't sit still. It was gut wrenching. After $300, I went home with Advantix and heartworm meds. She was never even seen. I need someone who is basset sauvy. Debby <debby3426@hotmail.com> Merchantville , NJ USA - Am looking for a Basset who needs a loving home.

Vicki <slurpee1870@yahoo.com> Priest River, Id USA - Having been owned by a handsome male Basset (Lucky) and a beautiful female Basset (Lady), my husband and I appreciate the humor and sometimes not so funny situations of other "ownees". Your site has been a sweet/sad love affair for both of us. We lost Lucky 2 years ago at the age of 12, and Lady followed him last year at the age of 12. 12 years is simply not long enough to love these priceless dogs. My husband said he simply could not lose another Basset and would not consider having another one. However, since we discovered The Daily Drool site, he has decided that ok, one more time. We are on a wait list with a wonderful Michigan Basset breeder (Bentley Bassets) in Lapeer, Michigan. Until then, we will satisfy our Basset cravings with all of your wonderful members. Thank you for being there and for caring so much about Bassets --sometimes frustrating, but always with you for life. Yolanda Lyons <yolandalyons@tm.net> Barryton, MI USA - I have 2 Basssetts and they are like my own kids. They love playing with the cat and have alot of room to run.

Besides, there is alot of people that look alot worse then he does. Ha.Ha. Linda Knott <lknott@ns.sympatico.ca> Bedford, N.S. Canada - I have two beautiful basset hounds. the mother who is eight, and is so full of energy and mischief, and the son who is six. he opens peanut butter jars and mayo jars, i can never catch him doing it, but i buy only plastic, as i am afraid he could get hurt. Has anyone heard of a bassett hound doing that? I put a jar in front of him and of course he looked at me like i was crazy, so i just gave up. he gets plenty of food,i just think he is a snacker. gloria schefflin <gschefflin@yahoo.com> durham, nc usa - Have thoroughly enjoyed reading the "drool". I rescued a 4 mo old basset directly from an owner 3 years ago. I love this little guy (well actually I call him my nuclear basset because he's BIG, not overweight tho) and found my way to basset rescue (Suncoast basset rescue, FL). Right now I am fostering my first hound at 11 years young and he has been a delight to bring into my home. I fear that I am going to fail fostering on my first one!! Your site has brought a lot of info specific to this breed and I've enjoyed each and every digest. I hope that the Drool will continue after Nancy's retirement. Linda Roth <lsroth@earthlink.net> Orlando, FL USA - We welcomed Virginia Belle into our lives in December 2005. She is the light of our lives. She makes us laugh everyday as she goes through those awkward growing stages. Love her, love her, love her! She is fabulous with our other dogs (a beagle and a mini-schnauzer) and quickly established herself as the head honcho...even though she is the baby. Rachel Skogsberg <recapps123@yahoo.com> Nampa, ID USA - ya gotta love the warm weather in jersey and out with your hound clifff <cliffordwilliams1@comcast.net> s brunswick, nj usa - My Precious Princess, Delilah, who I am food slave to, has just gotten over Bronchitis. It was very painful to watch her cough, just like a human with that awful sound. The big difference was she really had trouble breathing when having a coughing spell. Thank goodness for her Vet, he gave her a very strong cough pill which stopped the coughing completely within 12 hours. So if you hear your basset hound coughing like someone wiht Bronchitis, get to your Vet as soon as possible. She is all better now and she is very happy to be over this awful disease. Ruthanne Buckley <ruthanne.buckley@bioconinc.com> Rockville, MD USA - I LOVE this site. This was the first basset hound site I found while playing on the internet looking for basset hound web sites.

My parents got him for me after hearing that the breed had such character. Wow, were they ever right...but now I wouldn't have it any other way... I enjoy your site and am happy to see that I'm not the only one who has a soft spot these slobbering hounds. Andrea PA - Mr. Flanagan--my 7 year old tri cleo has some of the same problems yours has--he is afraid of some of my friends and anyone who comes to the house to do any type of work. I can hold him and feel him shake-when someone is in the room that he doesnt like. with me, it is a different story he is my dog and comes running to see me as soon as I step in the house. he doesnt sleep in a crate-which leads me to wonder if the previous owner used the crate as disipline. short of seeking more professional help the only thing you might try is see if another dog or cat seems to calm him down good luck! cliff <cliffordwilliams1@comcast.net> - My name is Peter Flanagan, and I am the 'slave' to a 7 year old Basset named Oscar. We adopted Oscar from Bassets To The Rescue in 1999 in New Jersey, and we've given him a loving home and have taken excellent care of him. However, there is a problem. I know all about the breed's stubbornness, but Oscar poses a challenge. He is fearful and completely non-accepting of me. If I walk into the room he's in, he'll scamper out. The only place I can pet him or scratch behind is ears is when he is in his crate, ready to sleep. Otherwise he runs away from me. This has been going on since 1999. If I corner him, he will defecate. He shakes sometimes if I've been too close. But when I'm not around, Oscar is the life of the party. We assume that Oscar was seriously abused by his previous owner, but no volume of treats or food have worked for me to win him over. I tried to use those flower drops in his water, but I think I'd have to use the whole bottle to get him to relax near me. I do take Oscar on mile-long scampers which he truly loves, but he is at the absolute end of his leash. He gets startled if I get too close. And at age 7, he isn't about to change easily. I haven't given up, but I'm close. I am always respectful of Oscar, and I talk to him and I do treat him properly. He may be having pack-assimilation problems, and is fearful of the Alpha role player (he's assuming it's me; my wife may have other ideas). He howls a greeting to everyone in my family, but when I walk in you hear his paws on the wood floors, scurrying away. Any ideas? If someone is knowledgeable in this area, I'd love to try something different in order to gain Oscar's trust. He is an adorable, funny, great dog, and it is a small matter of heartbreak for me. Since I was a small boy, I've always wanted a Basset. I'm 48 now, I finally have the hound, and he's terrified of me. Thanks for any ideas you might have, and if you could forward this to someone who might have a clue as to how I can go about gaining Oscar's friendship and trust, I'd be so happy to listen. Thank you for anything you can do, Pete Flanagan pflanagan@hvc.rr.com Peter Flanagan <pflanagan@hvc.rr.com> Washingtonville, NY - I LOVE BASSETTS CINDY GINDELE <BIGFOOTJOHN44@AOL> WEST SENECA, NY USA - I am food slave to Delilah who is 5 1/4 years old. Now that the Holidays are over we are back to our regular routine. She wants me to take a permanent vacation so we can visit other dog friends and human friends as well as PetsMart (her favorite store) all the time. She thinks all stores and restaurants should be like PetsMart and let her in. Don't see many Basset Hounds around. Can't remember the last one we saw. We do enjoy the Daily Drool.

Susan Fallis (Elliott's Mom) <nurseinbuff@mac.com> buffalo, ny 14210 - I was blue so I thought I would look up basset hounds and came across your website. I had a great dog who I alway's called my 1st born. He would have been 15 yrs. 12/29/04. He was really ill so I had to let him go 12/7/04. It was the hardest thing I have ever done and then to watch my children 9 and 11 say good-bye was heart wrenching. He was a great dog and I miss him always following me and he hated doors closed so I miss him nudging on the doors to get in. Anyone who has a bassett knows they need alot of love and attention and are great family/companions. Nieko was his name and I truly miss him. signed broken/hurting heart.

He weighed 38 lbs. when he came to live with us; now he weighs about 54 lbs. Sebastian (aka "Puppers" and "Doe Eyes" and "Humble Pie," etc.) is thrilled to have a forever-family to love. We are crazy about him, too. He gets along great with his older "brother" and "sister" Buddy and Jazz. They are rescued dogs, as well.

I have a 65 pound English Basset..(beagle/basset) Mr. Doo is his name. He's been quite trying as he was already 9 months old and hardly trained when he came into my life. He eats and chews on everything...including my children, unfortunately, from time to time.

We spent so much money trying to figure out why our basset hound (who just turned 2) was limping. The vet couldn't come up with anything besides the excuse he was just trying to get attention. So after hundreds of dollars I finally find your website and learn about PANO. Wish I would have known about that before spending all the money I did!

Of course we think she is beautiful, how can we submit her photo for your gallery? Do we need to be members, because I work at home as a Webmaster and cannot afford to have a lot of e-mails as described on your membership information page. Nonetheless, I would like to show her off. This is my first experience with the breed and I swear that she talks to me! I know that sounds crazy, but she has different tones and inflictions when she is telling us something. Also, she adores my 8 year old son, if we were to submit a photo, are humans allowed in the shot, we have a really cut one of the two of them (?)... Thanks so much, she is absolutely wonderful, and I have owned Keeshonds, Irish Wolfhounds and a wonderful Golden Retriever; Rudy, but I must admit I do like this breed, although I was hesitant at first!

I am having so much trouble with him though and could use some help with ideas. He has been pooping in his crate at night even though we take him outside every 2-3 hours. He has a small area in the crate since we used the divided, just enough room for him to sleep in. Also he pees all over the area I keep him gated in the kitchen. Even on his blanket. I don't understand, I thought they didn't go where they sleep. I take him out hourly during the day too. I don't know what to do. Please email me! Thanks!

Karen <feisty12u@aol.com> garden city, mi usa - Wednesday, May 26, 2004 at 18:08:43 (CDT) Don't you just love all the bassets in the weekly poll? I wish they could all win. Watch out for your Bassets eating the Cicadas! They can cause a lot of problems including the need for surgery to get the things removed from stomachs and/or intestines. They are not digestable and can cause blockages. My Vet says discourage pets from eating any. Fortunately my Delilah, who I am food slave to, has smelled them and put her nose in the air. She'll have nothing to do with them. I am really happy about that. Usually she's up for trying anything she can get her mouth around, especially chicken bones. So I watch for those when we are walking as people seem to think it's okay to throw garbage on the ground. Most of the time I get them first, but when I don't I have my hand in her mouth in a heartbeat and am taking tham out before any harm is done. Her Dad got a chicken bone and ate it and perforated his stomach. After 2 surgeries he died. I would be devastated if that happeneed to my Delilah. Love the Daily Drool. Have gotten a lot of books from the suggestions on Amazon.com that are really great too.

Last fall, put our name on Basset recue at our local Humaine Soc. Christmas came and didn't hear from the Humaine Soc. so when we saw an ad for Basset puppies in our local paper we were ready. We named her Lilly, well about 2 months ago we got a call from the Humaine Soc. telling of a 5 month old Basset puppy that needed a good Basset home, well anyway we now have 2 puppies and 2 other dogs and a cat. Well, talk about a 3 ring circus. They love each other and have made a big hole in our hearts heal. It's a good thing we are retired and have lots of time to spend with them.

Ann Green <ann_g@dodo.com.au> Warilla, nsw australia - Tuesday, April 20, 2004 at 23:53:58 (CDT) My basset hound has had chronic ear infections for all 4 years of his life. We've tried everything from going to the vet for antibiotics, changing his food, cleaning his ears ourselves and nothing seems to help him. I am now out of work and taking care of a newborn and would like to know if there are any remedies that could be shared with me that don't cost a lot of money and do work. Otomaxand ear cleaner have not been successful. Changing him to a non-allergenic diet has not helped. He shakes his head daily and has a brown discharge. Also, any tips on shedding? Thanks. connie <catzeyez888@yahoo.com> - Tuesday, April 20, 2004 at 22:44:22 (CDT) We became the proud owners of our first Basset today! He is a 7 month old tri-color.

I adopted "Millie" from Ohio Basset Rescue and on August 11, 2002, she came to live with "Maggie", my basset that I've had since she was a little pup at 6 weeks old. I met "Millie" at the "Meet Your New Best Friend at the Zoo" event at the Cleveland Metroparks Zoo in June, 2002. I fell in love with Millie that day and knew that I had to have her. "Millie" was in the loving and excellent care of Elaine Brown, her foster MOM, after being rescued that past February. Millie is
