  • Characteristics

    These dogs have a mind of their own, therefore training can be difficult. Always remember that because of their scenting natures, Bassets will ignore the recall if on the trail of an appealing smell.

    Placid and affectionate. Neither timid nor aggressive, these dogs are sociable, calm, playful and have a sense of humour. They love children and get on well with other dogs and household animals.
