Hey everyone
Haven't posted for a while !
I have a few questions... First I am getting married do any of you have any ideas on how I could incorporate my hounds in to our wedding ? I'm looking for some different ideas like basset napkin holders, basset shape name places maybe something like that.... Ideas from you all would be great!
Secondly I have two hounds and they get on really well, my question is my bitch will lick my boys eyes...?! And I don't mean gentle little lick I mean she really licks them often to! He closes his eyeS and seems to really love it haha Iv not heard or seen this behaviour before, why does she do it? Is she just cleaning him? He doesn't have weepy eyes, any more than the normal eye bogies they get!

And my last question is my bitch has had this sore come up under her nose, see the pics there has been no blood and it's not bothering her it does look like a cut or a graze the skin looks raw. It's weird it's a circle ? I did think my boy could have caused it ? They do play rough some times ?! All advice appreciated ! Thank you
Happy Easter :)

For our wedding, two of the hounds were ring bearers (the rings were attached to pillows attached to their collars. The cake(s) were one large and four small arranged to form a pawprint, and the large one had Basset Hound wedding toppers.

Laurie Valco does wonderful work but she commands a high price but everything is custom. Her work can be found on etsay as well

I made a custom Basset tie on Zazzle.com




Two of ours were ring bearers we made the pillows ourselves

That cake topper is adorable ! I could be having that :) I was thinking about having them as ring bearers but would they actually waddle down the aisle and do as they were told with out me being with them lol probably not ! Any ideas for table names? With some sort of basset theme?

Any advice on the nose sore or the eye licking please ?

The balloons are cute !

Mikey T that is unbelievable! I have binned them and bought stainless steal bowls. Why has it just happened now? She has had this bowl since she was tiny.
Any idea why she licks his eyes all the time please ?

Lyla loves to lick Cooper's eyes. Boogers or no boogers. He lets her, because she runs the house. Lyla has pretty weepy eyes, but if Cooper tries to help her out, she turns away. I have to go in with a tissue to clean her eyes in the morning. Both dogs like to lick any eye-boogers I wipe away. How is that appetizing?!!
