Hounds on Parade

Overall Satisfaction

I have included a photo of the three hounds (along with the trotting dachsund), happily parading along on my mantel under an oil painting of Freckles, the Basset Hound, and me, which was painted based on a photo taken of me 48 years ago when I was 17. I was the puppy trainer, a whipper-in, and finally, the Kennel Huntsman for the Spring Creek Basset Hunt in Barrington Hills, Illinois, USA. Basseting involves following the hounds on foot as they chase (in this part of the US) Cottontail Rabbits. They didn't catch the rabbits -- they just "accounted for them" by tracking them to where they went to ground. Some members of the hunt really loved watching hounds working, while others simply used the meet as a chance to go to the teas held afterwards. For me, the draw was the hounds. I have always loved working with animals in groups to watch how they interact. BTW -- the copper and silver horn next to the candlestick was my hunt horn.

Sue's depictions of the hounds are spot-on (even though they aren't the bassets I worked with).
