Wow! The bassethoundtown walking club spring event was a big howlin’ success!!
Howllo Fellow Basset and walking club lovers! We had so much fun yesterday! The weather was near perfect, except for one spring downpour which provided some very stinky hounds but in my opinion that added to the fun! Everyone was laughing and running back to the shelter!
It was so much fun…gotta love the smell of a wet hound! Here we have the rear end of Rosebud, Abby, Bumper, Murphy, Tater Tot (I think) and bringing up the rear Ellie!
So, to back up a bit…This is Daisy Lynn and I getting ready to go. We get there about an hour or so early to set everything up.
As soon as the hounds arrive they are greeting by both of us and offered the traditional wiener on a silver platter.
Some were so excited they could not contain themselves and let the howls rip!
This is Nosey Newbold Hall on the left and Rosebud on the right. It was Rosebud’s one year birthday! She was adorable!
Then Nosey went over to give Bumper a good sniff!
“Oh you smell soooooo good big boy!”
Then we all walked down to the dog park and sprinted back during the spring shower. We had about 27 – 30 hounds show up. It was a great turn out. Lots of new hounds and if I were to guess I think there are about 100 or more that have attended. By that number I mean about 100 bassets total if they all would come to the same event. That would be really cool!
Then we come back for the bassethoundtown free gift give aways and chat and smell each other! LOL
That is Sam the Dog II and then from the back to the front – Roscoe, Hank, Rosebud, and Ellie. There were a lot of smaller red and white girls at this party! That was fun!
Then the party broke up about 3:00ish – and the Mayor was exhausted. She came home and crashed. I turned her AC on, fed her and out like a light!
Marsie, Mom to Nosey and Sam the Dog II took all of these pictures. Thank you so much Marsie. I really don’t know what I would do without you. It is so hectic as you can imagine.
A fun time was had by all…
More loving bassethoundtown walking club later…Cat, Daisy Lynn (Chaps and Emma ATB walking with a pack of infinity;)
We had a great time again this year. Bumper and Abby had their fill of hot dogs and they were really tired after this outing. They came home and napped the rest of the day. Looking forward to the fall walk already!!
You know everyone is having fun when not even the rain can ruin the day. So glad so many showed! Wow. I didn’t realize this was such a BIG event! Way cool!
Sorry to have missed such a great time. The pictures were great. Daisy Lynn can put on a great party

Looks like everyone had a great time! Love the photos.
You, Marsie, Daisy & Nosey really know how to show everyone a good/great time.
