in reply to Mickie_G Thank you for visiting! I do have an idea for Bassett's. Since they were bred to hunting small game and use their scenting; try a game of find the target! We love that game. Start small, use a yogurt container lid or similar, put some kibble or treats (small amount) on the lid and show them, and say 'find target'!
Then move the target further away until you are basically hiding it in another room. We love this game!!! It's kind of basics for teaching tracking. Have fun!
