[Dailydrool] Westminster & "Royal English Hunting Dogs"

[Janis Whitsett-Watts]

Actually, while the basset was developed in France, the King of England had
a pack of hunting bassets at the turn of the century. I don't know if the
present Queen does, but the bassets that were developed in
France were imported to England in the late 19th century when more specific
type breeding occurred. Here a couple of good links with lots of info:
