My basset hound, Ziggy, would cry so badly. It also took 2 of us to hold him while he was getting his nails clipped until he was 10 years old. He then started to go back with the girl by himself. Frankie did very well!
Such a handsome hound. I've never had a basset but my beagle was pretty similar. He especially hated anyone touching his front legs. The nails at his hind legs were easier to cut.
Beautiful Frankie. Yes, Basset Hound nails are hard to cut, especially when they are over four/five years old-the nails get very thick. After a long time I found this technique for my Basset. The nails should not be trimmed in one go: this way the nails do a lot of twisting and the Basset gets stressed and anxious. With a non-big dog nail clipper, I cut piece by piece all the way around the nail at a 45-degree angle, leaving longer the inner part, which will wear out on the first walk. That way I don't have to use force to break them off and I don't risk cutting the small vein inside the nail. Now I can cut them myself, without someone else holding him down. However, it is a lot of work. 🙃
Frankie is such a good boy not to mention so handsome as well. No way would my basset Webster be happy having this nails cut . Where does Frankie live 🐾🐾
ha ours was the same. Plus they'd have to muzzle him each time eventually because he'd turn into a Rottweiler once he realized they were cutting his nails after the first few
My hound The Flash hated getting his nails cut to the point the vet would sedate him! After that, I bought a nail grinder and it changed everything. He enjoyed the feeling of having his nails grinded down.....that and the wendys chicken nuggets my g/f gave him as a reward.
Our boy Hudson has to be fully sedated - he struggled so much that he made his nose bleed…… Now he gets walked 3kms per day in the park and this keeps his nails short.
He has such a beautiful face.
Frankie is a spectacular example of a handsome Bassett Hound! I really appreciate you sharing, keep up the GOOD work. Thank You!
I would love to have Frankie around to brighten my life. Btw that vet plays cool music
Bassets are my favorite breed! My guy, Riggs, look very much like this precious boy!
Nervous tail wag. Aww. Hooray for the folks who take care of this angel.

When Droopy the Dog is getting his pedicure:
Me and my brothers act the same way

Your pain my basset HATES trimming her nails. With a passion
Good Frankie. 🙂
My 35 lb basset hated nail trim. This one time it took three to hold her.

I'm amazed he is not slobbering all over you.
Buddy don't worry 😘
Yep. Basset policy is: If I want something done, I'll let you know.
Beyond Beautiful 😎
Maybe he needs his emotional support animal with him when he goes back to the vet?
Ohhh Frankie I know how rough this is.
are they choking him?
What is this evil? Run Frankie

Almost as unpopular as tubby time for most Bassetts.
Hang in there big boy, almost done.

Poor baby
Hi frank
Animal abuse! I'm sure Frankie felt it was.
Everybody and everything is overweight these days. Ugh
Irresponsible in life
Why’s that chick wearing a mask? Is the dog gonna give her COVID?
