It has a long body, short legs and long, flappy years. Above all however, what makes the Basset Hound so unique are its gentle eyes and sad expression Originating from Great Britain, the Basset Hound is a breed of hunting dog used for its scenting ability and its sheer determination. This is a very hardy dog and consequently used for hunting in packs, during which its deep, throaty bark can be heard. It has a smooth shorthaired coat and is generally a mixture of three colours (black, white and brown). Its short tail, which is always cheerfully twitching, gives a true indication of its character which is actually very lively and cheerful. Behind its sad expression hides a gentle, friendly and very playful dog. Very popular as household pets, its placid character helps it adapt marvellously to family life.Dog and Cat Companions - Whether you prefer dogs or cats, they are excellent companions, always ready to play or go for a walk.For almost 25 years now, Papo has been helping younger and older children to develop and to discover the world around them. Childhood is a time of dreams and adventures, and this was what we had in mind when we decided to create, invent, innovate with a wide range of animals or characters. One constant factor which has not changed over the years is quality (the quality of the sculptures and of the materials used) which has always been our watchword and will remain so.
