Thank you for telling me about your dogs. I've had two bassets and both were quite ones.
The last one did bark when happy, i.e. when I got home. So I thought that perhaps silence
was a breed trait.
I remember one time, the neighbours came out to look what all the fuss was about. They just couldn't
believe that little dog having so deep and load a bark. I just love the deep basset voice.
Mr. Runcible doesn't even bark when playing with his puppy friend. :huh:
charvie, what typical feline behaviour. My cat loved to taunt the bassets too. She pretended
to dislike them, but you just saw how fun she had outsmarting and frustrating them.
I think that cats like bassets better than other dogs because of their calm demeanor and their
eye expression. I do know my cat hated the staring eyes and croaching stance of border collies.
