[Dailydrool] Size adjustments on PBF Uniforms; "Hush Bassets"

[Val Brewer]

If the PBF uniform is way big, I discovered that the size can be adjusted easily 
by doing two things: rolling the top of the bandana before tying it reduces the 
size of the triangle. Tying the tie in several knots (or a bow) reduces the 
lengths of the tails. I needed to do both to fit one for Harley's chihuahua 
girlfriend, Ruby, head of the naval wives & girlfriends association, whose 
picture is in the PBF auxiliary on the website. (I realize that that title 
should be naval significant others, really. Hopefully there will be more 
pictures up on the website soon. http://www.pacificbassetfeet.net/  Praise on 
sewing goes to Barbara Thulin. (My sewing was a little rough--I'm a beginner; 
apologies to bassets who got mine. lol).

Second, a basset owner on a different island from me e-mailed me today to say 
that she has mated her female basset to an English cocker spaniel, and that this 
is a new designer breed popular on the mainland called a "hush basset" or "hush 
puppy" which claims to eliminate the health problems inherent to bassets. Has 
anyone ever heard of these?

I will be away from a computer all next week and will get back to e-mails after 
that. Semper fido, Val
