In the UK there is essentially no hunting field trials, which is ashame really, because I feel this is an important feature of owning a Basset. I have mentioned before on other threads, that bassets don't do fetch or play in other ways that other breeds do.
This maybe me being rather cynical, but Bassets looking cute & loveable is probably more for humans & Disney than anything else. Bassets are a great way to drag you away from the TV and into the countryside.
If you can find "safe areas" where you can let your Basset off the lead and possibly follow a scent, it is not always easy, but I think you will enjoy it.
Anyway now I have dug myself into a deep hole I will shut up.
PS if you find a website for the GPS collars please can you post a link
