The Basset Retriever is a mixed breed dog created from the Basset Hound and the Golden Retriever. Weighing 40 to 70 pounds as an adult, these dogs have ancestral hunting genes that make them excellent athletes and strong playmates. Eager to please its human family members and always happy to spend a day on the couch, the Basset Retriever can adjust to small-home living as long as it has daily outdoor access.

Go hiking, take a tour, get something to eat and go camping together with your dog—and bring family and friends too, if you want.

About 35 percent of households in this state have at least one dog, compared with 31 percent who have at least one cat.
