We got another dog?!

[happylabs]

OMG, few things are cuter than a basset puppy! And Babs is a GREAT name for a basset! She's adorable!

I agree!!!

Aw, a PUPPY!!! You got PUPPY BREATH!!! !

There should be an aerosol spray "puppy breath".

Sadie, I know it is a lot of PUPPY ENERGY, but she won't hurt you, and you get to play at being the BIG SISTER!

lol Sadie is getting used to it and starting to play back...unfortunately she'll be having surgery to repair her bum leg pretty soon and then we're going to have to find a way to keep them separated, haha.

Babs is so...chilled out. We went for a walk again today and she's so GOOD on the leash! We saw a squirrel and a bicyclist and she didn't even flinch.

(Big Smile from reading above) Yes, From what I've read, bassets have a very good temperament and are friendly. As she gets older though, her hunting instincts might kick in and that's when you will need to be sure you have her on a leash as you do now. One of these days she's gonna see a squirrel and want to catch it. I've have been reading about bassests because she is so cute.

I hope you keep her; she's so sweet. .. Kay in NC

She's on a leash any time she's outside, haha. We don't have a fence and she got halfway down the driveway before my dad got her one night when she slipped out the door. It's amazing how fast her stubby little legs can go

She's so sweet


On our [short] walk today

Maybe the roommate rubbed Babs nose into a a potty spot she left behind all the while making her whine an cry while doing so. i remember my friend doing that to her dog when he was a puppy. it can be upsetting an sound really horrible an in my opinion,, is a horrible teaching method. but thats me. everyones different.

shes super cute!

does she bark? any kind of hound dog barks make me laugh. they have such funky barks

Awww, Babs! You are SO CUTE enjoying the sun! Gentle *kiss* for you.

Hi, Babs! I keep coming back to look at these photos of you because you are just so utterly cute! How are you?

[JuniorxMyxLove]

Babs is HUUUUUGE now! I think she's just over 20 lbs right now Which crazy since she was so teeny tiny when we first met her!

She's more or less back to living with my sister because Sadie had surgery to fix her ACL/Meniscus and Babs was too active (Sadie, by the way, went to the vet for a 30-day check up and is doing fantastic). But both may be coming back to live at home [roommate issues] so come this summer, expect a lot of Babs!

We're working on house-training her...she's getting better about not peeing every 10 minutes, haha. She's also learning to come when called, which is nice. She got loose in the yard the other day and came right back when I called her [we don't have a fence so I was a little worried].
