a prince and his lady

Princeton came to our family and we couldn't have asked for a sweeter boy. All he wants out of life is someone to cuddle with when he decides he is done playing. And this boy loves to play! His energy level is well beyond what we expected but we wouldn't have him any other way. 

But one basset was not enough for this family. Princeton needed a four legged friend for those times when houndie things needed to be done that a two-legger just didn't understand. There were neighborhood dogs to bark at and trash cans to knock over that a small basset boy couldn't do on his own. 

That's where Lady comes in. We watched the BROOD website for months looking for just the right girl for him. Lady (changed from Dee Dee) had had a very tough life before she was rescued. Like Princeton she was extremely thin. She had heartworms and was loaded with ticks. Her fosters took great care of her and got her healthy enough to come home with us. 

Now Lady is putting on weight nicely and she is starting to learn a few commands. Her biggest accomplishment is relaxing when it comes to food. She use to take treats as if she thought we were going to take them away. She is now very gentle and waits her turn. 

It took her about another month to get her energy up but she now keeps Princeton on his toes. They were definitely made for each other. 

We are so happy with our two lovable hounds. We love them both and can't image life without them. Thank you BROOD (especially Sandy, Helen and Christie ) for helping us find them.
