<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Dazey didn't get spayed till age 5 cuz sons were
going to show her and the old Airedale. Of course it never</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>happened so I got them fixed.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>After that very shortly Dazey got Addisons - She
was overweight and also had a thyroid problem</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>but I do wonder if something happened</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>during surgery cuz it wasn't our good
vet.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Just wondering.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>And as far as this site for advice - it's the best
around. Lots of learning done here and shared by the</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>experts too.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Becky got pancreatitis and intusseption and this is
where I learned lots about it and help. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>As far as their bones go a ortho specialist in
Calglary told me Bassets are built like midgets and have the same</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>problems with backs, hips.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>But another breed? - no they are far too
entertaining and they are like kids - when you have kids you unfortunatly
</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>get to know all the neighbours whether you want to
or not - and bassets fit that too.Also they are not for the people with bad
nerves.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Amazing dogs although I like Airedales (they hate
discipline and learn quick) they are much more obedient
and loyal than kids and bassets</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>When walking the other day I met a man and woman
and their Shitzui - they also said their friend in Toronto had a Basset
and once she told</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>her husband to go out and help that poor lady a
basset owner because in middle street Basset did a 'flat' basset and it took two
to move her</FONT></DIV>
