Default Blue eyed Bassets

Hello all, and thanks in advance for reading this thread. I have housed several bassets over the past 9 years, however, I ended up keeping 2, one passed away about 4 years ago, the other is quite unique, to me anyways. Her name is Pixel, knowwn as Pixie by family and friends. Since birth she has had a pink nose and light eyes, now, 2 years later, she still has a pinkish purplish nose, and her eyes are this aqua color ( yes I know it is undesireable, yes she is full stock, and yes, she has been fixed)
Point of this post is, I am looking for other people with similiar, um, undesired traits in the breed.

SO far my boy still has pink on his nose, but it is going away slowly...he's 9 months old, so i have a feeling it will be gone when he's grown.
But, i really think you should post pictures of pixel : ) i wanna seeeee!!

Default Pix

It is hard to get her to keep her head straight on fo a good pic, she is all the time hearing or smelling something so she is always moving around, but I posted a few more on my profile. You should check out Paul Newman the white basset on youtube. Dunno if he is full stock or not, but he was a rescue, and has the most piercing blue eyes I have ever seen, Plus Pixie likes the one where they do an interview on him, when he barks, she looks at the screen and tips her head back and forth, it is super cute!

I LOVE your fluffy basset, Miriam! What is his/her name?

I've had several come through rescue with one blue/one brown eye. I think it makes for a very striking appearance.

My lil Bailey is just back and tan no white... All her litter mates were tri-colored, I don't know if that is "undesirable" but she is sooooooo cute! I know Bassets just need to be hound color and she is but I have not seen any like her.
