Meet the breeder

I'm Carrie and Mark B., the breeder behind Peach Blossom Bassets located in Idaho Falls, ID. We breed AKC-registered 100% European Basset Hounds in a loving home where we focus on the health and well-being of all. Our puppies are bred and raised to be the healthiest and most outgoing dogs they can possibly be. We raise our puppy’s on an early neurological stimulation (ENS), curriculum to provide each puppy with their best start in life to enhance physical and mental development to further strengthen each puppy’s ability to cope and adapt in a multitude of environments.

Q. & A. with Carrie and Mark

  • Why did you start breeding?

    My husband, son, and I got into breeding under Jennie Oberg (Maple Street Bassets), where we have learned the responsibility of excellent breeding practices, including the value of raising healthy, environmentally enriched well- tempered wonderful companion animals.

  • What makes your program special?

    All of our dogs are raised in our home as members of the family. Puppies are interacted with and trained daily in lead/leash skills, potty, and crate training. Each pup is evaluated by confirmation and temperament to give each family their perfect match.

  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies include black and white, tan and white, and black brown and white. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.

    Carrie was amazing to work with. She does an amazing job setting the puppies up for life from the beginning. She does an amazing job with desensitization to fireworks, loud noises, nail trimmings, and life in general. Millie (Birsa) could have cared less about the fireworks on the 4th. Carrie worked extensively to socialize the puppies to children and adults, visiting her children's school classroom, gymnastic events. Millie is 100% sweet and such an easy puppy to train. I plan on getting another puppy from Peach Blossom Bassets when the time is right.

    I had the absolute pleasure of getting my adorable Basset Hound puppy, Flapjack, from Peach Blossom Basset, and I cannot recommend Mark and Carrie enough! From the very first moment I reached out to them, their communication was prompt and thorough. Even though I live in California and they’re in Idaho, I was able to FaceTime with them and see Flapjack before pick-up, which was such a reassuring experience. It was clear from the start how much love and care they put into raising their puppies. Mark and Carrie genuinely wanted to ensure I was the right fit for Flapjack, and I really appreciated that. They’ve been incredibly supportive throughout the entire process, offering advice on food, treats, and puppy behaviors. Even now, we stay in touch through text and email, and I love sharing updates on Flapjack and keeping up with his siblings. If you’re looking for a kind, attentive, and responsible breeder, I highly recommend Peach Blossom Basset. The entire experience was fantastic, and I couldn’t be happier with my new furry family member!

    Carrie and Mark were wonderful to work with! Our puppy, Wyatt, is so sweet and has such a wonderful temperament. He's so chill and non-reactive that his trainer uses him as a sample dog for other reactive dogs to work with! We are so lucky to have gotten him and cannot recommend Carrie and Mark enough. They obviously raise their puppies extremely well and care for them so much. Thank you both!
