Breed Information

Overview

The Basset Hound is not a purebred dog. The best way to determine the temperament of a mixed breed is to look up all breeds in the cross and understand that you can get any combination of the characteristics found in either breed.

The Basset Hound Mix is a cross between a Basset Hound and another dog breed. Because a mixed-breed dog can take on any combination of traits from one or both of the parents, it’s important to talk to the breeder about the other parent breed.

Should a Basset Hound Mix take more after their Basset Hound parent, they’ll likely be a medium-sized dog that fits in well with families. They’re also likely to have a sweet nature and a playful personality.

Temperament

Basset Hounds are known to be loyal sweethearts that bond closely with their families and are devoted to them. They are affectionate and playful. They tend to get along well with other dogs and children. But, they do tend to have a high prey drive, so they will need some extra socialization with any smaller pets in the household. You should be able to expect something similar in a Basset Hound Mix. The other parent breed could throw some other traits into the mix, so you do want to ask the breeder about them. You can also meet the mother dog in person to get another perspective on what temperament to expect in your Basset Hound Mix. However, once you get your puppy home, it’s up to you to continue training and socializing them to make sure they maintain a great temperament as they grow.
