Ozark's Basset Hounds
About
We are Home to American and European Basset Hounds. Our goal is to breed the highest quality Basset Hound Puppies, producing outstanding, competitive show Basset Hounds, as well as exceptional
family companions. We believe in striving for a balance in all of the qualities that make a Basset an excellent representive of the breed: the classic long droopy ears, loose, supple skin,
massive paws, a mellow easy going temperament combined with structural soundness. We are very particular in the dogs that we purchase and employ in our breeding program.
We participate in American Kennel Club( AKC) conformation dog shows. This is to have our dogs evaluated by judges independent of our breeding program and select superior
individuals to produce the next generation

Instantly recognizable due to its big, heavy body, short legs and long ears, the Basset Hound has proven itself to be a multi-purpose dog that excels in conformation, obedience, tracking, field trialing and pack hunting. The breed is known for its strong hunting instinct and, if given the opportunity, will chase or follow a scent willingly. Because of its gentle, non-confrontational nature, the Basset can be used for hunting in packs or alone. The Basset can be any hound color, which includes combinations of black, tan, white, red and other colors..
