Emma submits her entry for the official archive, for basset hound ear length!
Howllo Fellow Basset Hound and Official Archive Lovers: Chaps has taken it upon himself to establish the OFFICIAL ARCHIVE FOR BASSET HOUND EAR LENGTH. This archival vault will be housed in Bassethoundtown for all of his residents to view, admire and aspire to!
Today, the first lady of basset hound town, Emma, submitted her archival record.
Here is another shot so you can see how I hold the tape measure up to the head.
Our very own Emma measured in at 9.5”! Pretty impressive indeed. Make sure when you measure, you do not tug or pull on the ear to make it longer. Just make sure there is no slack. This way we can keep the records accurate and people thousands of years in the future will enjoy our attention to detail!
All of this archival material will be listed in a sub-blog categorgy called:
OFFICIAL ARCHIVE FOR BASSET HOUND EAR LENGTH.
It is not up and running yet. My website guy has to install it, but here is what the header will look like!
Those of you who have sent in photographic evidence will be listed in this sub-blog shortly.
Some of you have sent in ear lengths but I cannot post them without the photographic evidence. It is a 2 person job at minimum. If you are single, have someone take a picture of you and your hound while you are on a walk or, better yet do it at the vet! The techs will be happy to help you.
Come on – you want people thousands of years from now to see your hound’s ear measurements in the official archives! hehehehehe
More long ears later….Love, Cat, Chaps and Emma

I will have to find someone to help, I can’t possibly do this by myself.
By the way Cat, please ask the Mayor and Our Emma, if this is true–If Bassets gain weight it automatically goes to their ears!
LOL Maureen!
Not the case with my kids! It goes right to the gullet area!
hehehe

How cool! I’m going to try and measure all 4 of mine this weekend and send in. I already know that Jethro’s are the longest. It’ll be fun to compare ear lengths with everybody and see pics of everybody’s hounds. I had to crack up at Emma’s picture. If she didn’t look so comfy sitting there you’d think she was getting choked!
Cindy – I thought the same thing when I saw the pictures. I was trying to hold her head up so everyone could see her pretty face. hehehe
