First time using the services of Good Dog and while not crazy about the fees, it provided security when purchasing a dog out of town. Damon was responsive to all inquiries, was willing to meet at a mutual place and provided a healthy pup that was well cared for and loved before becoming part of our home. He took extra steps to ensure her transition to a new environment was less stressful by providing a blanket with the scent of her litter, a couple of toys and food. This really helped her to settle in to her new life at our home quickly by not feeling so separated from her family. If you are looking to add a Basset to your family I encourage you to consider Damon as a breeder.

CK Beagles & Bassets were transparent from the start. They sent me updates weekly, with an updated vet report at 6 weeks. They were honest and really took care of the puppies. When we met them to get the puppy, they were kind and gave us even more updates about the dog to prepare us for a smooth transition. My wife and I are incredibly happy with our sweet basset hound
