I used to have Bassets and they are wonderful pets. I would still have them today, but I can't lift that much weight. I only remember one of mine drooling. She would sit and watch you eat and drool. She didn't drool at other times. They are loving, good-natured dogs. One of mine would howl if their was a wolf on tv or if you howled to get her going. The others didn't. You have to be careful about them jumping on and off of things. They can have disc issues from jumping. It is due to their long bodies. My first one had to have back surgery. They do shed.
