I’ve heard that it’s important to keep the Basset Hound from jumping – why is that?
This breed has more bones in the body than any other dog breed. The results are bowed legs that can be damaged or even permanent crippled. Therefore, it is important to keep a Basset from jumping from heights or doing too much climbing. For this reason, we recommend you keep stairways, balconies, patios, and decks blocked off, and take care if your pet gets up and down beds, couches, and stairs.
