About Basset Fauve de Bretagne
The Basset Fauve de Bretagne, also known as the Fawn Brittany Basset, is a small but energetic hound that originated in France. Once bred for hunting small game, this cheerful and determined breed has become a popular family companion thanks to its affectionate personality and lively temperament. They are slightly taller than the traditional Basset Hound but still have the signature long body and short legs typical of the Basset family. With their coarse, fawn-coloured coat and expressive dark eyes, Basset Fauves are both adorable and full of character. Friendly, intelligent, and outgoing, they get along well with children and other pets, making them a great addition to active homes. Although naturally independent, these little hounds are loyal and thrive when included in family activities. Regular exercise and mental stimulation keep them happy, as their curious nature and hunting instincts can make them adventurous explorers.
