[QUOTE="donna723, post: 288038, member: 1883"] Bassetts ARE big dogs! My brother had one for a while. He was big enough that when he stood up on his hind legs, he was tall enough to help himself to anything they had on the kitchen counter or dining room table. And he was smart enough to figure out how to open the bi-fold doors on their pantry. If you didn't watch him closely, he would get in there and take whole loaves of bread or boxes of cereal and eat them. He was a neat dog though, very laid back temperament, really good with the kids, and I don't remember him smelling too bad. One thing about Bassetts, I think they have some of the same health issues as Dachshunds. They can get a lot of back problems from trying to support that long, heavy body on those short, stubby legs.
