I am a basset lover from waaaay back. When I was 6, my parents bought a basset named Red, and I loved that dog more than anything. They gave her away about 1 1/2 years later. I cried like mad.
Fast Forward to 1999. I buy a house with my webmaster riches. The first addition to the house is a basset pup. She died 5 weeks later from a heart ailment. It turns out I got her from a notorious evil backyard breeder (they all know her at the ranch, and even have one of my pups brothers looking for a home, looks just like her.)
Bassets are on of the most commonly abandon breeds. People give many reasons ("It's just too much for me!" -- At which point I think, "Yeah, all that sleeping can be a drain,") but I think that it has more to do with their incredibly large piles of poop.
Anyway, I've in an apt. now, no dogs allowed, so I go to the ranch where all them homeless hounds are happy to see me.
