Lady Godiva

The first is Lady Godiva - doesn't she look great? She has lost weight and is so energetic now - and is just a love. She runs out in the yard with her buddies while I'm at work, and then she comes in to lie on the sofa and get tummy rubs. She sleeps with her head on a pillow - so cute! She "wrestles" with Tallulah and Truman and sleeps in sun patches - funny how dachshunds all love wrestling and sun patches inside the house. She waltzed right in to our house the first day like she'd been here forever, and it feels great to have her here.

And here is one of her with Truman, who also came to us from Beagles and Buddies. They are very cute compadres.

Thanks again! Melissa Hamilton

How do new dogs and babies get along?

The baby and the dog should never be left alone together.

However, Bassets are the least likely to be dangerous. There are other breeds such as the Labrador, the Golden Retriever, and the Collie that are unlikely to snap at children.

Adopting an older dog that has had experience with children is much better than adopting a puppy or a young dog without experience.

With puppies, teething is part of growing up - and sometimes they don't know the strength of their own jaws. Rather than riskng it, go with an older dog. That way, both parties can have fun & respect without getting into any trouble!!
