Dan the Dog

Here's our new pound puppy "Dan." He's a Bassett Hound/Golden Retriever mix from a pound up in the mountains of North Georgia. This shot was taken back around December---BEFORE getting neutered and before he graduated puppy school! He's still crazy, but at least he can sit, down, leave it, and stay (for up to 10 whole seconds). Needless to say this nutbucket has cut into observing time a bit. I've been memorizing constellations and trying to spot them before he tries to eat something he finds on our evening walks.

Nice to meet you, Dan. All "nutbuckets" are welcome here.

Cute pup! looks like he loves his toys!

Gotta love puppies!
Thanks for sharing Lee!

We've been a Basset family for quite a while and Dan definitely looks like he has some of those traits. From what you post I could believe most of it EXCEPT for the ability to sit, stay, etc.. Bassets don't feel they need to do that. Their role in life is to eat, sleep, smell everything in sight AND follow every scent until they think you've got food for them. (watch what you put on the kitchen counters, he will get it, not his fault, he's just got Basset blood)

BUT, wonderful looking dog and thanks for the rescue. Love those ears and those eyes. That's personality,,,
