Pencil sketch from an outing with the Bassets in Monkton, MD. While my idea of a basset hound was formerly of the Hush Puppy variety, I learned that there are actually different varieties of "basset-type" breeds - basset being a French word meaning "low - rather low". All bassets are short-legged scent hounds - this particular sketch portrays a Petit Basset Griffon Vendéen.
