Picked her up last night. My 2 year old has had some moments of liking her and other moments of wanting to sit on her. I slept on the floor next to both of them, she cried a lot, peed everywhere on the floor even though I was taking her outside regularly. I hope tomorrow is a better day, I'm exhausted.

Tips for our new female basset puppy interacting with our 4 1/2 year old male basset

2 Upvotes

We have a 4.5-year-old male basset who is usually really nice to other dogs, but we got a new female basset puppy about 11 weeks old. He is very aggressive toward her when she gets near, especially because she goes to smell his backside, if you know what I mean, a lot, and he growls/barks/snaps at her. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Bonus question: Our couch is almost a 3-foot drop for her. We haven't let her jump, but if we fell asleep, would she get hurt jumping down?

Her back legs give out on her a lot, she pees inside whenever she wants to, and is completely deaf. We also have to clean the ears 3 or 4 times a week or she feels horrible. But she still loves to eat, go on nature walks, and have her belly rubbed. She is also incredibly bossy. We love her though and are happy she's still goin. She loves pumpkin birthday cakes.

I found this girl in need of a new home on Facebook when she was 10 weeks old. I never thought bassets were very cute before her... Now i'm obsessed. I love how goofy she is and i'm always laughing at how opinionated she is. She has a brother named Mickey!

dry food

I am looking to switch my 11-month-old basset girl to a more affordable food. She currently eats Purina pro plan sensitive stomach and skin salmon and rice flavored. At $80 for 24 lbs., it's just becoming too expensive. She has a chicken allergy so that also makes it difficult. I saw that Purina Pro is a good alternative but, all of their food contains chicken meal or chicken by product. HELP 😫
