Lol...Bassetts are so cute. Look at my home page. I have the “real” ones. Not house pets but so awesome.
My two little ones drive me insane. One thinks the house is a toilet. I want to throttle her at times.
I love them all. My little Snickers has an issue getting under the blankets when he is cold. He pats my forehead until I wake up and lift the blankets for him.
I have a female basset that swears my bathroom rugs are a toilet. I have tried to retrain her to pads, it is a work in progress. I think sometimes she does it out of spite.
And I have a male basset that loves being under the covers. He is older and has always been a bit skinnier.
Finally, the biggest of the 3 is the biggest baby. He would die for your little ones. Roll over and let them chew on him. The only fear I have when he is around really small dogs is he forgets he is HUGE.
