Hi there. I am new to this message board. I have been looking all over the internet for a reason why basset hounds bay. I can't seem to find anything. Could anyone tell me? I have 2 basset hounds, Maxwell and Betsy. Betsy has just started baying alot. Thanks to anyone who can help me.

I imagine it's an instinct of the pack.

I second that Vision, as the only time I've heard it is when I left.

If it's barking you're talking might be for some of these reasons:
Hey, hey look I'm a dog!!
Hey! Get of my lawn!
Uhh grass!
Something's moving!!!
I feell happy!!
I feel sad!!
Look the sky!!
Uhh I have paws!!
I'm great!!
Where are my humans!!
I'm hungry!!
I AM!!!!

At least it seems like this for some dogs.

Bailey and Millie dont howl, I've been trying to show them(i bet i look like a fool doing it) but i think it would be cool to teach them to basset sing!

My two tibetans do it but not when my girlfriends bassets are about...
