but their long ears looks like long hair
and makes them look beautiful

[habs4ever]

The ears make the bassets look comical, like Buster Keaton's eyes did for him!!

You completed that bassety picture, with your descriptions...those thick, stumpy tootsies, are just so wonderful...we sometimes used to Helga, 'chunky', because her legs were so wonderfully chunky...

And oh yes, those long silky ears...useful as long hair, and useful for covering their eyes, when sleeping..it was so funny, when Helga would drink noisily, and her long ears would be in the water bowl...then she would shake her head, and water and slobber would fly all over the place...

What fun those bassets are...
