I'd like to see a post of some of the Healthy bassets out there. I'm beginning to think its quite a hard thing to find in this breed. I am just sorta grumpy and down today, but it seems like there is always the big C or glaucoma, or genetic issues. My own guy gets shots every other week for his legs, and constantly battles skin issues and mange. Even my beagle has a constant ear infection we've spent at least $1,000 on over the past year trying to fix.

I want to hear about a basset who lives a nice long healthy life! Tell me a tale of how healthy your dog is!

I don't want to jinx things, but Lightning is 13.5 years old and just got an excellent review from his vet. Everyone who meets him is amazed that he is as old as he is. (KNOCKING ON WOOD LIKE CRAZY!) That being said, he's currently at the vet's getting a biopsy of an ulcer on his nose. : (
