All this talk of basset mixes reminds me of a basset mix that belonged to some friends.  She was, apparently, a dal-basset - part dalmation and part basset.  She had the low-body of a basset, the head and ears of a dalmation and dalmation legs and feet - short, but slender with tiny feet.  She had the coat of a dalmation, white with black spots.  Oh, yeah - and her name was "Dot"!

We have had four basset mixes adopted out through the no-kill dog rescue I volunteer with.  Three were ?bassadors??basset-labrador mixes.  All three were low-rider black basset bodies with the labrador head.  (One had a white chest, white paws, and white tipped tail, the other two were solid black). And we had an adorable basset-pitbull mix, Xena.  Xena?s body looked like a tricolor basset on steroids.  Her head was pitbull.  So, on the basis of a limited sample of four, I?d guess mixes get the basset?s body with a few tweaks, and the head of the other dog with a few tweaks (and the long ears get lost).  But then I?ve seen lots of photos of bagels (beagle-bassets) and some seem to look more like beagles, others like bassets, so I don?t know if my observations can be generalized.  Val

Hi All,
I still can't get every one well. Fortunately, Browyn the Fairy Princess is
a very healthy little girl. Knock on wood. She is doing fantastic. Then we
have the boys. Beauford and Bugsey were throwing up over the weekend. I
gave them cerenia to get through the weekend. On Monday I called and they
said they would refill their meds. So we are doing another week of that.
Beauford's incision is looking fantastic. So, that is a plus, but his feet
were not making headway with the yeast infection. Plus, Bugsey was starting
with the yeast in his dewlap and feet. So, I decided to bath everyone on
Tuesday. Beauford and Browyn let me cut their nails. Bugsey was a twit.
Never fear. I will get him today. But, I was on a tight schedule to get
everyone washed. I was worried about keeping Beauford's incision dry. I
tried watereproof bandaids, saran wrap and waterproof tape. Nothing would
stick. The hair has grown out just enough to keep anything from sticking,
but it is still short enough that it would be really hard to shave without
burning the skin. So, I just put a folded up washcloth over it and tried
not to get that area wet and it worked just fine. I used this Universal
Medicated Shampoo on the boys. It has chlorhexadine, salacylic acid, and
sulfur in it. It doesn't smell great, but it really worked! I have been
fighting red feet on Bugsey since we moved to GA 4 years ago. I kept using
whiting shampoo. It helped marginally, but I didn't know what else to do!
Well, they are white now! Beauford's are imensely better, but not white
yet. I will probably do his feet twice a week until they are better. So, we
are getting there! Drool to all in need.

Jennifer with Beauford, Bugsey, and Browyn the Fairy Princess

Good afternoon all, from a very rainy south west England.  It was
incredibly cold and frosty earlier, but the rain has seen to that.  Morse
turned 14 on 12 October, just after Rolph (Rolph on wheels) turned 14 too.
In mid July we were told that we had hours/days, possibly weeks but
definitely not months with our lad, who has haemangiosarcoma.  He is of
course proving the vets wrong and happily getting on with life.  He manages
a woof some days,  but sometimes his voice just disappears and we get
silent woofs instead.  He still digs in the garden furiously, is eating
like there is no tomorrow and still wants his little wanders every day (we
are shortly meeting his spaniel pal Zig for a wander).

I loved the story Sally told about the basset going to school with the
children years ago.  Often when we meet people, they look at Morse and will
say that they either had a basset years ago or knew somebody who did.
Usually the story will involve some sort of mishap - like breaking in
somewhere for food, lying down in the road etc.  One chap said to me quite
recently, about the basset he owned back in the 1960s when he was a child,
"oh God he was an awful dog!  He wouldn't do anything you told him", but
then continued to tell me stories about him and became quite misty eyed
talking about him, so "awful dog" or not, he was thought of fondly.

Morse almost got me banned from my local the other week.  We went in on a
Saturday night, and there were only a few diners in there and also a few of
the locals having a drink.  I am normally wary with Morse in the pub these
days as I am never sure if he will unburden himself, if you like, as he is
very liable to do these days, in very inappropriate places!  You don't
really get much of a warning.  Morse woofed for his gravy bones from the
barmaid and I got chatting to a friend.  Then Morse spied a couple in the
corner who were eating a beef dinner and proceeded to stare directly at
them.  Suddenly he did a huge WOOF.  I told him to pack it in, that not
everyone wants to be stared at and woofed at while they are eating, and
then - oh NO - to my horror his tail went up and I could see the nuggets
emerging.  Oh Good God.  No time to grab a bag and start trying to grab it,
I literally dragged him straight out of the pub (he was very upset about
this as there was a fair amount of beef still on the plate).  I hauled him
out and managed to get him outside the door, but was aware that there was a
little nugget trail leading to the door from Morse.  Thank the lord they
were firm or he would have cleared the place.  My pal came outside and said
that he didn't think anyone had noticed (!!) and to give him a bag and he
would discreetly clear up.  I did so, and he bagged it up, I binned it and
then Morse and I fled (sort of, although he was still really not happy
about leaving the beef  and put up a normal basset struggle).  Nothing
further came of this though, and as it was about 6 weeks ago I think we are
in the clear.

Val.  At least yours hear the intruder/mouse!  Morse is completely deaf.
About a year ago we were watching TV when suddenly a little mouse appeared
in the doorway and stood looking at Mike and I, who just stared back in
utter amazement.  The mouse then took off at speed and was never seen
again.  Morse never even batted an eyelid, despite being nearer to the
mouse than either Mike or I.

Wow, to have actual hunting bassets in your house!  We get mice but they are
strictly the property of the house cats.  At some point we realized that our
hound, Tucker, was putting himself to bed in his crate just to avoid the
nocturnal hunting cats!  He wants nothing to do with mice or bunnies or
birds or any other creature.  Strictly a 'live and let live' kind of guy!

My experience at the Vet Hospital with Basset mixes is this:
Leg length will be Basset (short)
Coat length and color will be non-Basset
Ears will be a combination of the two-- if the non-Basset has prick ears
the ear may be semi-prick.
This is based on several Basset/German Shepherd mixes
Basset/Labrador mixes
Basset/ Setter mixes
Basset/ Husky mixes

German Shepherd mix.
