France has given the United States several wonderful gifts…the Statue of Liberty, New Orleans, (some say) French Fries and…the Basset Hound! Basset Hounds are said to have originated when a genetic mutation in St. Hubert’s strain of famous hounds produced a dwarfed hound with an exceptional ability to sniff out and expose small prey. But that’s not all Basset Hounds are famous for. With those soulful eyes, big, droopy ears and distinct waddle, the Basset Hound was destined for a place in your heart—and for stardom! In 1928, Time magazine featured a Basset Hound puppy on its cover for a story about the 52nd Annual Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show. In 1943, Droopy debuted, an animated cartoon about a Basset Hound named “Droopy.” In 1958, the Hush Puppies shoe brand was born with a Basset Hound named Jason as its logo. In 1963, the “Fred Basset” comic strip about a male Basset Hound was first published. And in 1980, “Sad Sam” and “Honey,” the adorable, sad-eyed, stuffed Basset Hound-like pups, bounded into children’s home across the world. What an amazing testament to this lovable hunter/house dog!


Our adorable Basset Hound pendant pays tribute to this beloved pooch icon! It features an endearing profile of the Basset Hound’s large head and well-arched neck in outline form, with one of those characteristic long ears in full view. Typical of the Basset Hound breed, the ear hangs in loose folds with the ends curling slightly inward. You can almost feel the ear’s velvety texture and imagine it folds well over the end of the nose when drawn forward. The eye on the Basset Hound charm is slightly sunken in and made prominent by a bit of oxidation for contrast. And of course it has that celebrated sad expression! Also revered is the Basset Hound nose, second only in prestige to that of the Bloodhound. Here, it’s big and black just like it’s supposed to be, ready to track that rabbit (or just about any treat you’ve got lying around!). Wear the Basset Hound pendant today on any of our stylish chains and you’re sure to hear “Awww!”
