<DIV>It's my parent's fault that I LOVE bassets..My parents had bassets before
they had children..If my father were still alive they would have been married 62
years...so in 62 years of marriage we (our family) has had many many bassets and
many many dogs and cats. Both my parents were huge animal
lovers/rescuers. My father could NEVER say no to an animal in
need...birds, turtles, ducks, etc. I particularly love the basset breed as
I love their personalities ..my parents taught me that they were "clown" dogs
and they are so right. </DIV>
