Basset Home Furniture

Does anyone know the title of the song on a recent Basset furniture commercial?
The lyrics go something like this, I think...
"I like you so much, I gotta wake you up."

Thank you.

It's "Sleepy Tigers" by Her Space Holiday.

Please can anyone help!!! I'm going crazy! I work from home, and my 3 year old male Basset barks constantly from morning til night. I've tried everything from high pitch sonic devices, to sprays. I've even paid a dog therapist £250 to come into our home to try and work with him, but even that didn't help. There is no obvious reason for his barking - he's been checked out by our vet who confirms he is in excellent physical health. He is also becoming very aggressive towards us, often growling and snapping when you ask him to get down off the furniture. I am in two minds whether to try an electric shock collar, but not sure if this is inhumane? The entire family, but especially me, as I'm at home with him all day, is really getting fed up with this. We can't relax in our own home with the constant barking.

He's a hound. He wants to use his nose. Can't you let him stay outside in the yard to sniff during the day? Hounds are hunters. They get bored with nothing to do. They just want to sniff and look around.

A must have item for any dog lover

Hello! I have a almost 2.5 year old Basset Hound and he's potty trained at home However, he still pees whenever i go to my in laws or other places (Pet Smart, friends', other family, etc)
We (my fiance and i) are currently living with my parents until our house is finished being built and he has never lived anywhere else. It'll be a whole new house with all new furniture. So, how can i prevent him from urinating at our new home and everywhere else, besides neutering him.
-the reason we haven't is because my fiance wants him to get "one lay" out of the way before we take his man hood. so, we are getting a bitch soon probably after we move in...i know i know, dumb-

Please, any suggestions will be great. 10 points!


p.s. i appreciate actual suggestions, no rude comments, purty please.

Hi,

If neutering is out the question then your best choice is to catch him and scold him. When you see your dog sniffing to mark a place then your going to have advert his actions.

Find something that makes a loud noise to divert his attention. Some people use a old tin can or jar filled with coins to make a annoying noise to the dog.


Just shake the noisemaker when you catch him doing the markings.
He will eventually get the idea and stop.

The dog could also be suffering from stress stimulated by a new environment

We have an 18 month old basset hound we got from the Humane Society 5 months ago. He is very high energy for a basset. We have a fenced back yard, but he won't spend much time in it. He quickly whines and barks to be let back in. We can't leave him in the yard when we're gone because he barks incessantly and bothers the neighbors. I walk him around the neighborhood once every couple of days. I'm a stay-at-home mom and all four of us give him tons of affection. The problem is he is constantly getting in trouble in the house. He has many dog toys of all different kinds and textures and we can't get him interested in any of them. He goes for the trash cans, chews on objects and furniture, occasionally jumps fully onto the dining room table. He can reach almost anything. We close all the doors we can and do our best to keep objects out of his reach. He ends up spending a lot of time in his cage on and off during the day because we can't trust him for a second. We've tried squirting him with water, shaking a penny can, discipline, and distraction and nothing's working yet. He's had begining dog obedience training and knows sit, stay, come, and lay down (but he only cares if he knows you have a treat). What can we do? Will he grow out of this soon? (He did stop peeing on the carpet at least.)
Math mistake (oops), he's actually very close to 2 years old, more like 23 months. Does that make a difference? He's a basset hound. I was hoping he'd be a little lazy and need less walks.
I can't get him to tug-of-war or fetch anything more than once.

well i just adopted a 7 month old and i have the exact same problems and i would say what everyone else says which is going to be exercise your dogs. but that wont solve the problem although realize this dog needs at least and i mean bare minimum 2 hours a day of exercise maybe 2, 30 min walks around the neighborhood and an hour of fetch/tugofwar/frisbee daily not just love and affection thats separate. this is just basic exercise every dog needs especially as a puppy. now i do that and much more with my new puppy and she is better than if i wouldnt do that but she is still ruining everything and she is just nuts. usually at 2 years old about, they stop teething its a puppy thing. and my springer spaniel used to be just like both of our puppies and when she turned 2-3 she was the perfect dog all that horrible puppy stage stuff was worth it she is such a good calm loving dog who can go for mile runs with you come home and sit on your lap all night. but trust me she didnt start out that way.

I am curently looking after a friend's basset hound who has some disc problems. She has not been paralyzed, but is showing some ataxia in the hind legs. She is currently on prednisone and strict crate rest. The reason she is with me is because 1) her daddy is too soft-hearted to keep her in a crate or off the furniture while she heals and 2) they have stairs out to the yard and neither of them can carry her.

I previously had a basset hound who was paralyzed, and was told she would never walk again without surgery. I couldn't afford the surgery again (this was the second time her back went out and I'd given her the surgery the first time) so I took her home and did her physiotherapy, and also gave her a homeopathic remedy which was recommended to me. She was back on her feet within weeks. The problem is, I can't remember what that remedy was.

Any ideas or suggestions.

ARNICA 30 and RHUS TOX 30 together should cure the dog's spine repeat them every four hours and report back with its condition after 24 hours.
Take Care and God Bless !
