The Basset Hound is a friendly, easygoing dog breed known for its distinctive physical features, including long, pendulous ears and a short, wrinkled body. Originally bred in France for hunting, they are naturally inclined to follow scents and enjoy spending time outdoors. Despite their laid-back demeanor, Bassets can be stubborn and require patient, consistent training. They are generally good with other dogs and pets, making them a great choice for families. Their calm temperaments also make them suitable for indoor living, though they do need regular exercise to prevent obesity and maintain their overall health.
