I'm April T., the breeder behind Farm Town Hounds located in Nuevo, CA. We fell in love with the long ears + droopy eyes over 10 years ago. The friendly, easy-going temperament made Basset Hounds the perfect fit for our family. We’re excited to share our love for this beautiful breed and passionate about providing our pups with quality care, socialization + loving homes.

DNA Coat/Trait Panel, Full Embark Panel
Genetic testing reduces the chance of passing down a wide variety of hereditary diseases of differing prevalence and severity such as Progressive Retinal Atrophy (an eye disease) and Von Willebrand's Disease (a blood disease).
Health testing is one key piece of responsible breeding and is performed on breeding dogs to prevent the presence of heritable conditions in their puppies.
