Basset Hound Hi Folks Greetings Dog Animal Vintage Postcard

The Basset Hound is a short-legged breed of dog in the hound family. The Basset is a scent hound that was originally bred for the purpose of hunting hare. Bassets are large, short, solid and long, with curved sabre tails held high over their long backs. An adult dog weighs between 44 and 77 lb. This breed, like its ancestor the Bloodhound, has a hanging skin structure, which causes the face to tend to have a sad look; this, for many people, adds to the breed's charm. The Basset Hound is a friendly, outgoing, and playful dog, tolerant of children and other pets.
