Story
Hi, my name is Buddy. I am from Arkansas. Buddy was found or should I say dumped at the end of a dirt road at a home near where people know the fella will take them in. He has done well with other dogs and has largely ignored the cats on the property at his temporary fosters home. From his foster: In my 10 years at The Bond Between Buddy is one of my favorite dogs I've ever met. He's a great dog and will be perfect with a little time and training. He's is currently on a weight loss journey as he needs to lose roughly 25% of his body to avoid future health issues. The Good: -He hasn't had one accident or marked in our house. -Gets along with every person he meets -Hasn't been crated and hasn't chewed or destroyed anything. -Lives with 3LB Chihuahua and 75LB Rottweiler and gets along with both. -Curious but ignores our felines -Cuddly and love to be pet and snuggle -Doesn't drool as much as traditional Basset Hounds. -Is doing well with training and is food motivated (This helps a lot!). -Dispite his size he loves to hike, walk, sniff. Bassett Hounds are a working breed/hunting dog and will need physical and mental stimulation daily. -Look at him! HES SO HANDSOME. -I really think he could be a great hunting dog if someone put the effort in! Needs improvement: -We have 7 acres and access to multiple private off leash areas (fenced) and Buddy only comes when called about 60% of the time. He's improvement drastically even in the short time we've had him and think his recall could easily get to 100%. -Will need a strict diet and a fair amount of exercise to get his weight down. Bassett Hounds are prone to obesity so this will be a life long commitment. -He currently does get a little growly when you try and take his chew bones. I think he's just cranky and would never actually nip. However there are lots of resources on how to work through this. He has no problem trading it for a piece of chicken etc. It's something easily trainable. Out of an abundance of caution though I don't think a home with toddlers would be a good fit. Older children who can understand and respect boundaries of a dog would be best. Overall we are super happy to have him in our house. He's funny, sweet, snuggly and l couldn't ask for a better foster pup. We even considered putting in an application ourselves, that's saying a lot!
