Best Tricks: To clean up his toys when I tell him to. Arrival Story: We saw Edith and Archie online (gotta' love petfinder) and knew they were the hounds for us. We drove to another state (6 hours each way) to pick them up. My two bassets are litter mates. They were turned over to the Mid America Basset Rescue (now the BassetsRus Retirement Ranch) as a bonded pair. Because they needed to be adopted together, and because they had some health issues, they had been there about a year. Archie has only 3 legs, and Edith had a problem with digesting protien and had a uti. They were 5 almost 6 years old when they adoped my family. They are now 8 and very healthy and happy. Archie has had a couple operations to fix a wound on his nose (another dog bit him on the nose while at the rescue), but it still has not healed completely. They both love or Cats that we got from the pound a year ago, and our two pet bunnies. They have gotten along great with my human children also. They fit into our family perfectly, and became very loved and spoiled right away :) Bio: Archie died on June 16th 2009 and Edith died on July 13th 2009. They will forever be loved and missed.
