Product Description

One of the most photogenic, gentle, and lovable of all dogs, the basset can also be stubborn and independent, which means that it usually requires firm obedience training. This book describes the basset's origins and characteristics in detail, and offers expert advice on purchasing, training, feeding, grooming, and health maintenance.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very knowledgeable, Sep 12 2005

By	Lupe (San Antonio, Tx.) - See all my reviews

I bought this book before I bought my basset hound. With the books help, I was able to make a good home for my puppy.
Timone is now 22 months old and I have enjoyed every moment with him. This book has helped me understand his wants and needs. I have learned so much about my basset hound.
This is one of the best books on basset hounds.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not What I Expected....., Mar 8 2003

By	"nissaloulandry" (Kenner, Louisiana United States) - See all my reviews

This book was not at all what I expected! I thought it was written by a lover and owner of basset hounds?? It seems as if this guy thinks basset hounds are pains!!! Not to mention the type of dog he describes is nothing like my dog! My dog is very playfull, not calm or sluggish at all! He talks about Basset Hounds like they are the most fragile dogs in the world! This book was not as good as I thought it would be.

4.0 out of 5 stars brian, Nov 10 2001

By	Brian Herron (Fairmont, WV United States) - See all my reviews

This book is excellent for the first time Bassett owner. I found it helpful in raising my own Bassett Hounds and giving advice to friends and family that had decided to get a Bassett of their own. The only drawback is it could offer a little more detail that is specific to Bassett Hounds and not just dogs in general. All in all, it was very helpful in understanding some of the unique traits of Bassett Hounds.
