Our family attended the 2008 Bassett Bash and Waddle in Dwight, IL this weekend. There were between 1000-1500 Bassetts there today for the Waddle (parade) through Dwight. Hubby took photos for anyone that might be interested in viewing:

There was drool everywhere!!

Wow, that looks like it would be a lot of fun!!! No kidding on the drool comment

Great pics!

Wow! That's crazy! I've never seen so many hounds at the same time! Gotta love all those floppy ears!

Thanks for sharing, it looks like you had a lot of fun!

Wow is the gesture for sure---wow----beautiful bassets and I love those floppy ears....

The couple across from me here breeds them and they are forever having people come and buy these beauties...

OMG!! I should have gone to that. I would have loved to see that many hounds. Crush and Dori would have fit right in.
