  1. Berti was very good on about an hour train ride into Edinburgh today.

    He met loads of people, mostly other tourists that wanted to say hello - and he loves to say hello back!

    He was exceptional walking around the city, and sitting in a busy pub during a downpour.

    After another hour in the train and 40 minutes in the car, inhaled dinner, then cwtching down for a good sleep.

  2. 🇬🇧 Good morning. Just past 5am. Got up at 4:15. The alarm was soon going to go off anyway but one of the bassets (the pushy, whiny one) started his soft whining around 4:15 because he wanted breakfast.

    Then because he usually sleeps in the wagon he was in for 12 weeks after his paw surgery, he expects me to wheel him out to the living room 🙄

    My advice to all: want a low maintenance dog? Avoid #BassetHounds! Though they are by far the most loving breed I have ever had.

    As I sip my coffee, he is comfortably sleeping on the couch with her stomach full. 😆

  3. 🐕🧬 Researchers at the University of #Georgia analyzed over 3,000 #dogs, #wolves, and #coyotes to identify #DNA variants near the MSRB3 gene that determine ear length.

    The study explains why #bassethounds have long, droopy ears while #rottweilers have short, stubby ones – traits shaped by both natural #evolution and selective breeding.

  4. I haven't shared dog pics as much since signing up for Snapchat. Now my friends all get my pet spam directly. So, here. Lexi, the mighty huntress, triangulates the position of a nest full of baby birds. #BassetHounds #DogsOfMastodon

  5. An attempt was made to take a selfie with the dog. With #BassetHounds, you never know if you're going to get a cute portrait or a surrealist landscape. #DogsOfMastodon

  6. I've been bingeing Schitt's Creek while working on stuff and now I miss my own Lexi extra hard. (Alexis Rose is our dog's full name.) #BassetHounds #DogsOfMastodon
