The Basset Hound is a beloved breed known for its endearing droopy ears, soulful eyes, and gentle disposition. Originating from France, Basset Hounds were originally bred for hunting small game, particularly rabbits and hares, due to their exceptional sense of smell and low-to-the-ground stature. Today, they are cherished for their affectionate nature, loyalty, and unique appearance.
Basset Hounds are medium-sized dogs with a distinctive appearance. They have a long body, short legs, and loose skin that forms wrinkles around the face and neck. Their most prominent features are their large, droopy ears that hang low to the ground. Their coat is short and dense, with colors typically including tricolor (black, tan, and white) or red and white.
