hello my name is amanda.i have a just turned 3 year old bassett hound and lab mix.my daughter wanted to get toby for her dad on fathers and she did.i laughed when we picked him out because he came running to us with such short legs.hes so cute and everyone has to stop and ask us what breed of dog he is.the first summer we had him we went camping and he was the center of attention and everyone fell in love with him.i just have to share this story.lol....one day we had toby in the van and we stopped by my moms.anyways this man walked by and commented on what a beautiful lab he is and so we had to show him the rest and this man laughed because he didnt realize he had such short legs.he is our pride and joy!!!!!!!!!!
