Behold the Basset - noblest among all
Hounds!
Flash was born July 7,1994. We went to
my sister's neighbors house to see his
pups and ended up choosing Flash out of
a litter of 9, he just had that "pick
me! pick me!" quality. Although we
were
getting married the following week-end
AND in the process of moving into our
house my husband wanted the puppy and
looking at that little floppy-eared
angel I couldn't say No! Flash spent his
first week at my sister Kathy's house
along with her dogs Buster, Midget and
the pot-bellied pig named Lobo! The day
after the
Wedding we went and picked up our "baby"
for the hour and a half long ride back
to Summerville (outside Charleston,SC).
Flash whimpered a little bit but being
it was his first car ride (and a LONG
one at that) he did pretty good. He has
since evolved into a CHAMPION CAR RIDER
and thinks every time the doors are open
he is going too! He had alot of practice
the first two years of his life because
we would drive from Summerville to
Florence about every other week-end to
visit my parents who were always very
pleased to see their Basset Grandson. We
would load up the dog food, leash, toys,
chews, bedding, water bowl and away we'd
go, stopping for plentiful pee and water
breaks. I can't imagine what people go
through taking babies on trips, I know
what it's like getting the dog ready!
LOL
Now we only live 30 minutes away from
his Poppy and Granny so the traveling
has gotten MUCH easier! We moved from
Summerville to 24 acres of land in
Darlington County where we have plenty
of room for Flash to roam and sniff to
his hearts content. Although he is an
inside dog with his comfy bed right next
to Mom & Dad's
Here Flash is ON Mom & Dad's bed!
Look at that FACE!
Flash's first love is
outdoors. Flash has been sharing the
house with a white american shorthair
male cat named Winston for a little
over
a year now. They get along like peas &
carrots and provide MUCH of the
entertainment around our household.
Winston will soon have his own webpage
as soon as I get his Aunt Bonnie to scan
some pics for me. I will also have more
pics of Flash by then too. Heaven knows
I take enough of them, just need to get
on the ball and have them scanned. My
guys bring alot of joy to my life and I
do not know what I would do without
them. I have enjoyed being owned by a
Basset Hound and collecting Basset Hound
memorabilia so if anyone knows of any
neat sites I may not know about, email
me at Pooh-B@webtv.net Thanks!
