About Basset Hounds
The Basset Hound is a distinctive and ancient breed that originated in France. It is believed to have been developed in the medieval monasteries by French monks who wanted a smaller version of the St. Hubert Hound for tracking game, particularly in dense, forested areas. The breed’s name, "Basset," means “low” or “dwarf” in French, referring to its short legs and long body. Basset Hounds were primarily bred for scent tracking, thanks to their keen sense of smell and low stature that allows them to track scents close to the ground. Today, Basset Hounds are known for their calm, easy-going temperament and are popular as family pets and show dogs.
