I have been wanting a basset hound for a very long time, and would be a new basset owner. i have two children and a cat does anybody know if i would be better off with a puppy or an adult dog? also the best place to start my screach for the new member of our family?

Welcome to the forum.

Have a look at our Basset Hound Information. It includes breed guides, breed club, breeder and puppy information. I am sure that someone there will be able to answer you questions for you :-)
