Howllo Fellow Hound and Club lovers: I am a proud member of the Basset Hound Club of America.

I joined the BHCA in 1993 when I rescued Natalie from the pound.

I lost Natalie tragically to bloat very soon after adopting her. However, the moment I saw her I knew I was a basset hound person. I came home with her and researched everything basset. That is how I learned of the BHCA. I was hooked.

I love their publication, the Tally Ho, and throughly enjoy reading about the top notch AKC basset breeders who champion the basset hound. It is fascinating. The BHCA states,

“The Basset Hound Club of America was founded to encourage and promote quality in the breeding of pure-bred Basset Hounds and to do all possible to bring their natural qualities to perfection, to encourage the organization of local Basset Hound clubs in those areas where there are sufficient fanciers of the breed to meet the requirements of the American Kennel Club, and to assist them in their activities, to urge members and breeders to accept the Standard of the breed as approved by the American Kennel Club as the only standard of excellence by which Basset Hounds should be judged, to do all in its power to protect the interests of the breed by encouraging sportsmanlike competition at dog shows, field trials, obedience trials, and tracking tests, etc. and to conduct such events under the rules of the American Kennel Club. ” November 9, 2007
