The iconic Basset Hound is a born small game hunter with long, floppy ears and short, sturdy legs. Weighing 50 to 65 pounds as adults, these dogs make great family pets. In fact, this centuries-old hunting breed is well known for its tendency towards laziness and the cuddly couch potato lifestyle. Basset Hounds may not always let you know when its time for some exercise, so owners need to make sure they get their daily walks! Hounds are friendly with people and gentle with kids.
