Sugar Baby at six weeks is a 5.75 point Basset Hound using our quasi-objective system. She is Pet quality and might be bred for pet quality Basset Hounds with our permission.
AKC Standard perfect. 5 points Aesthetically .5 points - But LOOK at that amazing ear length! She is still the smallest of the lot at 9.2 pounds.
Short in stature, she lacks the immediate focus of a show quality Basset Hound and will need training. Her disposition is very sweet and somewhat playful. She is brave and loves to explore; but only with the true explorers, not on her own.
Her coloring is nearly perfect, hence the extra half point point. I see little of the brown coming out of her coat that I see in others; but there is a hint of brown throughout her ears, so expect a brown headed girl. Her ermine spotting is well distributed and mostly brown.
Sugar Baby's a bit camera shy and impatient. Her skin is ample and the slouch we look for over her eyes is good.
She shows no negative traits, but her mother has a pronounced vulva which is quite large for her size. Minus .25 points I expect that Sugar Baby will not reach very high at show and pronounce her a 5.25 point pet quality puppy.
