Having just adopted a new basset - I played these vids. and he went nuts! He's a red/white (a departure for me) with heavy red ticking. 8 years old and entire although he's not been used at stud as her bitches are too close (bloodlines). He belonged to a lady who has stopped breeding and was advertising a 5-year old bitch but she's apparently bossy which I didn't think would work with Teazel. Momo (I know but that's part of his registered kennel name - now called Mojo) wasn't going to be available as he was out of her fav. bitch but she decided to let me have him for a reasonable price. It's been a learning curve for all of us - moving from being a kennel-dog to a house-dog! Yes, urinating all over the place - not overcocking but just without any grasp of not peeing indoors. Thankfully the Vax has been invaluable and we seem to be getting the message through - he's clean all night now but he will NOT be crated! Slams on the anchors as only a Basset can.

Photos - his tail won't stop wagging - it's not bent!

PS How do I delete the pedigree - I didn't mean to post it? Done!!

5-year old bitch but she's apparently bossy

not sure there is a Basset bitch that is not bossy especial with males.

IF the steak is big and Juicy enough he will go in the crate LOL at least far enough to remove it.

Thankfully the Vax has been invaluable

probably need Miriam to translate British to American for me to understand

It can be really hard for kennel dogs to be retrained. feel for you.

and good luck on the adventure you said you were done with

he's not been used at stud as her bitches are too close (bloodlines)

that is an issue with the Multiple Breeder of FT dogs on the east coast. Our dogs are too related,. Many arte concerned about losing the hunt they have cultivated if they use an outcross without know Hunting ability. Miriam is not concerned cuz she started with show stock, it just so happens going back to spot her stuff shows up more than one would think. Fortunately all of our breeding Females are Lafora clear. so that allows more options.

An open R&W with that much ticking is not Common in the states.


Fatty-fat aka Alvin is the norm

Sorry to hijack your thread Mikey - I got carried away. So happy I am to have another Basset!! His heavy ticking isn't, I don't think, that common in the UK either and I can't really work out where it comes from because his pedigree is very open (despite him being too close to her bitches to use on them!). He has a lot of well-known British lines but also a load of all too well known Welsh studs. The bit of our Bellman in the fifth generation may help with the ticking - Bellman was by Strathalbyn Lugano and he had some ticking, black not red. Bit far back to have had much influence however.

Teazel wouldn't have been happy living with a bossy bitch - Basset or not.

A Vax is a make of a shampoo machine for carpets btw.

urban dictionary defines vax as vaccine British origins.

 

[TeazelsMum]

Yes indeed but Vax is the brand name of these appliances, and they produce vacuum cleaners as well as carpet cleaners. [/QUOTE]
