Litter and program updates
Traci L.
Litter update on 04 Sept 2025 •…We have one beautiful, confident and energetic female puppy left. She is doing really good at potty training, no accidents in her kennel and holds it until she is outside in the grass. She thinks she is a big dog and loves to explore the chickens, play with the cats and our other big dogs. She is also around horses a lot so she really is a confident pup. She is also learning leash pressure.

Traci was amazing throughout the whole process of getting our puppy. She was very responsive, offered lots of help and information about the puppies. Traci and her kids were so good with the puppies and truly care about them. She would send daily photos and videos for 3 weeks while we waited to get our sweet Lucy. I can’t recommend Red Fern Basset Family enough for a wonderful experience and cute basset puppy!

Traci was extremely responsive and helpful from the beginning. Right before we got our girl, she had a minor medical issue, in which Traci was quick to let us know what was happening and also provided us several options on how to proceed. Everything worked out for the best, and we were comforted knowing our girl was in the best possible hands until she could come be with us. Traci is a consummate professional and treats all the dogs like they are her babies, because they are! If you're looking to add a basset to your family, Traci and her family are the best people to go through.

Traci & the Red Fern Basset Family were an absolute joy to work with. Our now 1yr old basset hound puppy is such a sweet & playful addition to our family. The experience was seamless with a clear focus on finding great homes for their puppies. We’re so grateful to Red Fern for giving us such a wonderful new member of the family! Highly recommend!

Traci was an absolute pleasure to work with. Even though it’s been almost a year, I still remember how great the experience was. She kept me updated constantly with pictures and videos of my puppy, which made the wait so exciting and reassuring. I could tell she genuinely cared about the dogs she was raising. She made the whole process smooth, from handling all the shots to making the paperwork simple and stress-free. Pickup day was easy, and everything was ready to go. I’m incredibly grateful for the care she put into the process and into raising such a happy, healthy pup.
