[HyperGirl41661]

[donho1950]

I taught my basset hound to speak, but she lied to me all the time!!!

[oldfart387]

@donho1950 Bet you could read it in her eyes.

Wow - I have a 6 month old and 3 month old bassett puppies. Can you give me any tips on how to train them?

[MarkOFLL]

My heart aches looking at your adorable "Hunter". Many years ago, I adopted the most wonderful Basset Hound, named "Baby", he was the light of my life. I taught him to speak too, (small mistake…he never shut-up!

[iheartbassets3]

@MarkOFLL Hunter is now 2 years, and has decided that he make me give him food if he "speaks" :)) I can still get him to do it on command, but he has discovered many uses for his trick.

too cute <3

[Deannaandjoshboye]

AMAZING! Bassets are known to be the hardest breed to train!

[ziosuna]

@Deannaandjoshboye actually it's pretty easy if you reward them with attention and food, however if you stop the food coming they lose interest in the trick. they're stubborn and intelligent.

[GaudiGrey]

@Deannaandjoshboye one of the hardest, try a Shar-Pei those guys are even more stubburn thatn Bassets!

[lordtkn]

Can you send me some advices to teach a dog please! :D

Soon I'll get a basset hound puppy and I want to teach him some tricks :D

[jshooter97]

[mszoomy]

and some people think you can't train a basset because they're stubborn, wrong!!

Hunter is one smart pup!! and super cute, I love his little hop that he does

[chinchonchinchon]

[oliviamay98]

[TheAllisonWonderland]

Speak Speak Speak! lol, excellent job!

[wildfire88]

what a smart cookie! reminds me of my little basset!  = )

[Aloz16]

How do u train them like that?

and so young! :()

[stanakanats]

She is training him with food. Every time he does something right he gets a treat:)

But it's better to train you dog without food.

[iheartbassets3]

Actually, with a puppy, it is usually necessary to train WITH food... then you gradually wean them off of the treats. Now Hunter is almost 1 year old, and doing all of these tricks, and several more, without the use of treats... and using hand signals. :)

[jessicatron]

@iheartbassets3 that's pretty impressive, because of how food-oriented bassets are!

[Kemigi]

He is a cutie

=D

[bross001Angus]

Hunter is just like my basset. He will work hard, but only for treats. Definately a union dog.

[firstactdiscovery]

so cute!

[Suzyizi]
