AllAmericanPUP Posted June 16, 2005 Author Posted June 16, 2005 that's because the pictures SUCK. :lol: if you see her in person you can clearly see her tail has long flowing hair and her body is furrier than a smooth coated basset and her chest is very "feathered" Quote
AllAmericanPUP Posted June 16, 2005 Author Posted June 16, 2005 The Basset Hound is of French origin, and is a low-set heavily built dog with long pendulous ears, and hound's head, "crooked" forelegs, and long body. They have excellent tongues, extraordinary scenting powers, and will readily hunt deer, roebuck, wild boars, wolves, foxes, hares, rabbits, either singly or in packs. Colour black, white and hound tan. There are both smooth-coated and rough-coated Basset Hounds, the only difference being the coat. Weight 40 to 50 lbs. Height 12 to 14 ins. at shoulder. Quote

izzy Posted June 17, 2005 Posted June 17, 2005 Look like you were taken a pic of Bigfoot or an UFO :lol: ... i've seen puppies of 10 months or so with the hair a little more growth, but it get short whe they become adults, it's interesting, here's a fragment of the AKC standard: Coat The coat is hard, smooth, and short, with sufficient density to be of use in all weather. The skin is loose and elastic. A distinctly long coat is a disqualification. Yeah i know you don't care about standards :P anyway i hope you can take a better pic of that dog. :) Quote
AllAmericanPUP Posted June 17, 2005 Author Posted June 17, 2005 i shall try to take better pics of the pooch lol. if the people see me they will think I am some sort of freaking riding by snapping pics :lol: :lol: I know she isnt a puppy because they've had her for a few years. they have her, a smooth coated basset and a coon hound..they hunt with all of em :D I know the standard, but it says a distinctly long coat is a DQ..wich pretty muchs mean they exist but are not allowed to be shown :D Quote
Canis erectus Posted June 17, 2005 Posted June 17, 2005 OK it's kinda difficult to tell by the pics, but I can tell she's got sort of a spaniel-ish type coat. From what I can tell the head looks all wrong for a Basset though, it's not large and strong enough, I'd guess she's a mix that ended up looking 95% Basset Hound looking. Quote
AllAmericanPUP Posted June 17, 2005 Author Posted June 17, 2005 no her head is exactly like a bassets should be. the pics suck and dont do her justics at all. she looks just like their other basset in body and everything, just different color and coat :D Quote
ShatteringGlass Posted June 17, 2005 Posted June 17, 2005 the long haired Basset that comes to my work has more coat than that one, she has long, thick feathering. Quote
