has anyone else out there got a basador, lab cross bassett, i know they are popular in the usa and woundered if they were catching on over here.
 
Yes, I know of one, one of the most ridiculous looking things I have ever seen.

I wish stupid crossbreeds wouldn't catch on

What's the point of them? I get labradoodles - the idea was to get a low allergy assistance dog as I understand it - but what are these for?
 
sorry i was just asking as my kids gave her to me for my birthday as a family pet, and i wanted to find out abit more about them,

There is no lack of mongrels over here where I live, if that is what you're asking for. I also know of four FEI recognised different basset breeds, Basset Artésien Normand, Basset Bleu de Gascogne, Basset Fauve de Bretagne and Basset hound, neither of them makes any real sense to me to breed to a Labrador Retriever.
Though I have found a link to a picture of a Bassador ( http://www.dogbreedinfo.com/b/bassador.htm ), very cute indeed but seems to me like yet another another pointless design breed/mongrel.

If you have one and you like it, good for you, I hope you have lots of joy with it.

There's nothing wrong with that.

I'm sorry too, but the way I read your first post, where at the ending you're asking if they where "catching on", I thought you considered if there was a market for making more of them.

I have one who is nearly 9 & is a wonderful girl. She was the produce of rape (3 in litter) & I did not pay a penny for her (though she has cost me many!)

I also had her spayed asap as I did not want her getting crossed with a lurcher, collie or jrt! Imagine what that would look like!! Plus I do not breed x breds!

But I would not change her for the world she is the most loving, loyal, friendly dog.
She is also a registered PatADog, they go into hospitals to cheer patients up.

She looks like a Lab on Basset legs with the obligtory longer lugs!

Would love to see what yours looks like!?

Here's my girl

Sorry for pic over load! I have hundreds of her!
 
She looks like a sweetie - look at her little stumpies!

I think the problem that people have is when people stick two dogs togther, call it a something-ador or a thingummy-doodle then charge a grand a time for the offspring

Have to admit I thought this is what the OP meant - sorry OP I misunderstood!

Arh the Queen Anne legs give it away usually!

Though it is surprising how many people think they she is a pup out of my 3ry old lab!

I did forget to warn OP that the bark on them is immense, think hound of the baskerviles!

Is a great burler alarm though! No-one dare break in when it sounds like an 8' great dane/bare behind the door!
 
I will post a vid when I get home from work! Of her attacking a squirel through the window!

When she was a pup I had her in a stable whilst doing something on the yard. A friend rode through & my girl kicked off. She was like "Christ. What have got in there an 8' Great dane!" Then I opened the door & this tiny little thing came out!
She was like "No way did that make that noise!"
 
I'm quite proud of that I've detected a Basset hound, only by the bark, more than once. F.ex. once when I was out shopping with my mother we heard a dog barking and I said to my mother "That sounds like a Basset hound", quite a few other people out shopping, looked somewhat worried and began turning their heads around. We were not surprised when a Basset hound came walking out from a pet shop but the other people looking for the big dog with the scary bark, kept looking...

She certainly has the bassett voice. When she started barking Evie came flying in from the kitchen and climbed on me trying to see where the strange dog was
laugh.gif
 
Well there certainly isn't any Spitz in her, I waited and waited and it felt like ages before the first bark came...

Thanks for posting the video, woke all my three girls up, they're now wondering where I'm hiding the dog...

Sorry should of put a disclaimer on or told you not to have volume on full at least!

Made my own girl bark! She thought where's this intruder in MY house!
