The name Basset comes from French words meaning "rather low".
Basset Hounds usually have coats of brown, black or white and are most often spotted. Sometimes they can be other colours.[2] Basset Hounds have been bred from the nineteenth century. They are said to descend from the Basset d'Artois. Basset Hounds are 30–38 centimetres (12–15 in) tall, and can weight up to 30 kilograms (66 lb).
