Behaviour and Personality
These dogs possess a very agreeable temperament, enjoying play time with children and toys alike, as well as attention from their owners. Bully Bassets require a firm and consistent training routine. There is a tendency for light barking if the dog thinks there is an intruder. Unfortunately the Bully Basset inherits a propensity for ear infections from its parents.
