Got a healthy basset? Seems like there is always something...

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!

Mine is very healthy so far. He did have a bit of diarrhea yesterday, but it didn't slow him down any. He even stepped in it and then decided to jump into the bathtub. I guess he knew he'd need a bath.

LOL, he probably knew he may as well get it over with.
