They love to sniff - will do this for hours. Make sure you have plenty of space and they will love to roam around, however it must be fenced or else they will roam forewver chasing the scent of a varmit!
They are wonderful with Kids (my experience) and love humans and generally will cuddle up to anyone and those sad eyes hooks them in an instant!
Great choice for a pet IMHO
They are wonderful

Thanks for taking the time to reply

We have a 4 yr old, so I want a dog he can pal around with, that isn't going to eat him. lol
I've done a lot of research on different dogs, and bassetts seem to fit our lifestyle well. We are always home, have a fenced in yard, a 4 yr old to play with him a little, but not to much.
Always good to hear from an owner with personal experience.
Thanks again.
