What you HAVE to know if you value the health of your dog

The Health of Your Pet



This afternoon a friend of mine sent me an email with a link to a remarkable website, and I can surely say that my eyes have been opened. I never really knew that I was basically killing my dog....I mean, ME?! I'd never endanger the health of my beloved companion, my dog. At least, not knowingly.

But as it sadly seems, to my hearts content the answer is no, but ignorantly, the answer is yes. We'd like to share this video with you today as my wife Beth and I feel that you need to know this valuable information. Let us know how it makes you feel. Myself, I want to keep Bernie (and Sophie) alive as long as possible; I can't imagine life without them. Beth and I would be devastated in knowing we untimately had a hand in their early departure. Thank you for reading, and please let all the pet owners you know about this injustice. Cheers to longer lasting pet health!

Adding some photos of Bernie's sister, Sophie

We originally had just Bernie, but he decided one day that he'd like a sister to play with, so from the cold outside he brought Sophie unto us. They met playing outside, and ever since they were inseperable. She would meow at him thru our glass back door, and he'd make the antics to go outside and play with her until we opened the door. At first we weren't really sure what it was that was getting him so excited, but after a while we caught a glimpse of her, and did our job to coax her inside from the cold winter air with all the treats she wanted.

Even though Bassets are very good hunting dogs, Bernie seems to get along with just about any creature, and humans alike. He and Sophie have never had any tiffs, and she'll lay beside him and sleep sometimes as well. He's quite gentle natured and loves attention, and quite squishy, so if you like to hug and snuggle with your pets, Basset Hounds are an excellent choice.

Sophie is a very sweet but also shy cat, I guess a bit of the wilderness in her, so good photos of her are hard to get, but we'll share what we can snag.

Bernie the Basset Hound

Hello all, and thank you very much for stopping by. My name is Michael, and along with my wife Beth we decided to create this blog about our wonderful Basset Hound named Bernie. Before meeting my wife, I myself had never met a Basset, or knew anyone that had one. Little did I know that my life would be changed forever.

I'm now so partial to this breed and Bernie himself that I'm committed for life. I've never cared about any pet as much before, and I'm so thankful to have had my eyes opened up to such companionship!

I guess the main reason we're writing this today is to help spread awareness of this lovable breed, as we feel that every Basset should have a great home, and also to share our experiences with other Basset Hound owners (or slaves, as they DO tend to make their owners into, haha!).

We hope that you find our blog to be worthwhile of your time, and we'd love to hear your experiences, stories, and see pictures of your Basset Hound (and the happiness they've placed into your lives).

We'll keep you updated. Thanks for visiting!
