Fred Basset by Alex Graham for February 01, 2024

And no treat for you after….

Later in life, you would come to appreciate them and excel in later dog shows wining best in show.

When I looked up personality traits of bassets (AFTER I got 6-week old Barney) the book listed at the top “stubborn, disobedient.” But we could usually appeal to Barney’s love of hearing “good dog.” We only used “bad dog” at first. He hated hearing that and would woof at us. Later we said “Where’s my good dog?” Then he would get over whatever snit he was in. He was such a good, good dog. I’ll always miss him.

Looks like it’s Mr. Dear who needs an attitude adjustment. He’s still frowning. :-(

That middle panel grin on Fred ;-)

Eight dollars? Not pounds?

Fred…the little devil!

Is that $8 a lesson of for the entire course? Either way very inexpensive

Fred, you seem like a fairly good dog to me, except for your propensity for stealing sausages.

Ooh, you evil dog, you! ;-) Not like the modern, well-behaved Fred we all know…

Now ….. Fred ….. you wouldn’t purposely flunk your obedience class ……. would you ….. :)

I knew someone whose dog flunked obedience training. The dog was a pill to be around.

Now that I look at it again, he’s heeling beautifully!

Fred you don’t needobeidencr Scholl you are fine as you are
