Now YOU can OWN the DVD! "A Basset is an Asset" is now a 25 minute feature film including this song and a lot more fun with Charlee, Buddy and their pups. Go to www.aBassetisanAsset.com for more info. This video has been updated on YouTube - see "A Basset is an Asset V2"


Buddy and Charlee's puppies have just passed their first birthday. This video features the pups - Barkley, Henry, Momo, Maddie, Fancy and Beaumont - and friends Mr. Fig and Nelson at the local off-leash park.
Title song "A Basset is an Asset" written & performed by Bronwyn Edwards Cryer (www.bronsongs.com). Woof!

Lyrics:
A Basset is an Asset

With long droopy ears and a tail that swishes
You oughta put a basset at the top of your wishlist
A lowrider, slow kinda easy-going pal,
A Basset is an Asset

Oh a Basset is an asset on a Monday
If you ask him very nicely, he won't bring in the paper
Instead he will give you a look to remind ya
To use your own legs and he will follow close behind ya

A Basset is an asset on a Tuesday
If you scratch him on his tummy, and feed him something yummy
You know he will tell that he does appreciate ya
He might be kind of stubborn but he's got a loving nature

With long droopy ears and a tail that swishes
You oughta put a basset at the top of your wishlist
A lowrider, slow kinda easy-going pal,
A Basset is an Asset

A basset is an asset on a Wednesday
When you return from where you're going, she'll be so pleased to see ya
She waits for the moment when you're hers and hers alone
To snuggle up beside ya, happy dog and happy owner.


When Thursday comes around and you must leave her
Share some loving with your Basset, and don't be gone too long
She'll be waiting for the moment when you come back through the door
To take her to the off-leash for a waddle or a stroll

With long droopy ears and a tail that swishes
You oughta put a basset at the top of your wishlist
A lowrider, slow kinda easy-going pal,
A Basset is an Asset

Oh a Basset is an Asset on a Friday
Whatever you are doing, he'll be so pleased to tag along
He loves to ride the motor bike, his ears blowing free
Behind you on the pushbike or the SUV

A Basset is an asset on a Saturday
Jump into your car and take her for an outing
To any destination as long as you are there
She isn't too particular so take her anywhere

With long droopy ears and a tail that swishes
You oughta put a basset at the top of your wishlist
A lowrider, slow kinda easy-going pal,
A Basset is an Asset (repeat chorus)



Sundays spent with your Basset hound,
These are the best of times, no better to be found,
Because a Basset is an asset
In every facet so let's rehash it...

No sweeter love than Basset love
You can't resist a Basset kiss

Soft floppy ears and great big paws
Smile for a while, he could be yours

Because a basset is an asset to you

(Long floppy ears, big huge paws...
A basset is an asset.
Cute.)
