There is nothing better than hearing from a Stud Hound family. Seriously, nothing.

We love these updates — photos of pups who are one year, two years, even ten years out, still living their best lives. Still making their families laugh and wonder how they ever did life without them.

So this week, we want to hear from you. Show us your Stud Hound babies! Drop a photo in the comments, tell us their name and how long they've been part of your family. These posts are the whole reason we do what we do.

If you're a new family thinking about joining us, this is a great place to see what a Stud Hound Basset looks like not just at 9 weeks, but for a lifetime. We're still welcoming families for our August 9 litter — visit studhoundbassets.com to fill out a New Family Member Application.

Unconditional love from both sides. ♡

This sweet girl settled right in like she’d always belonged. Her family says she’s healthy, easy to live with, and already the heart of their home.

That’s what we hope for with every puppy. If you’re looking for a Basset Hound raised with care, honesty, and lifelong support, apply here: https://studhoundbassets.com

This little Basset is stealing hearts already.

He’s the brave one today, paw forward and eyes wide like he’s trying to figure out the whole big world. The other two are staying close on the blanket, and I’m seeing their little personalities show up more every day.

If you’ve been following this litter, tell me which pup is catching your eye. Reach out through the New Family Member Application if you’d like to stay in the loop.

Not every puppy starts life the same.

At Stud Hound Bassets, we keep litters small on purpose. That means more health screening, more socialization, and more time matching each hound to the right home. 🐾

If you want honest breeding, real transparency, and lifelong support, start with our New Family Member Application.

Look at thid handsome boy!🐾

This little guy is getting smarter every day, and those curious eyes are starting to give him away. The paper and chew toy nearby are our tiny wins from this week.

If you love seeing puppies grow from day one, follow along and send us a message if you’d like to learn about our current litters.

Eight days.

Eight days until this litter heads home, and I'm already feeling it — that mix of excitement for the families and that quiet that settles in after a litter leaves. Every time.

Here's what the families taking these pups home are walking into: a 9-week-old Basset who has been raised inside this house from the day they were born. They know the vacuum cleaner, the washing machine, kids, other dogs, car rides, grass, gravel, and hardwood floors. They're paper trained. They've been handled daily. They know what it feels like to be held, examined, and loved.

They're not just cute — they're prepared. And so is every family that goes through our process.

One girl and three boys are still available. If your family has been going back and forth, I'd love to talk. The New Family Member Application is at studhoundbassets.com — or just send us a message.

Tiny paws. Big sleepy energy. ♡

This little black pup is spending the day curled up on a soft blanket, soaking in the quiet before the next round of snuggles and social time.

Watching them grow week by week is the best part. If you want to follow along or learn more, send us a message or visit https://studhoundbassets.com

Not all puppies are bred the same. 🐾

Most Basset health problems? They're preventable.

Poor confirmation, line breeding, and high-volume litters create dogs that suffer.

We limit our litters intentionally, never line breed, and health-screen every parent.

The result is a structurally sound, genetically diverse hound raised inside our home.

An informed family makes the best owner.

That look says everything words can't. 🐾

This is what a well-matched hound looks like. Happy, grounded, and exactly where they belong.

We don't just place puppies. We match them to the right family, and then we stay in your corner for life.
