My family have had Bassets (mostly rehomes apart from my current pups and two others from pups) and never once have we seen any agression of any sort in any of them, or others that we have known over the years.
Perhaps your foster Basset needs to be with someone who can give him one to one attention where there are no other dogs in the house because Bassets are not known to be aggressive and I have heard the Dog Whisperer say that they are the most dicile and least agressive dogs he has ever come across! My two Bassets grab each other around the neck but they are playing with each other! Was yours 'playing' with the poodle?
Can you try him with a softer type of muzzle rather than a hard plastic thing that he will find uncomfortable and it might annoy him!
