[Elmer-n-Button]

Elmer's first "doggie friend" was a beagle. They had such fun together! Similar in temperaments, size and build. Also, one of our employees has a beagle who he brought over to "play" one day. Even after not being exposed to beagles for a year, they got along great. I think scent hounds get along naturally, but you should perhaps take your basset somewhere where she could play with a beagle before you commit.

(I should talk--we brought home a 4-month old boxer male to 2 2-year old bassets cold turkey). What were we thinking?????!!!!

Good luck! My motto: "It'll be FINE!"
