I'm Janelle C., the breeder behind The Clumsy Kentucky Bassets located in Nicholasville, KY. My love for bassets came in 2020, when purchasing my first purebred lemon basset. I saw how many people came up to me and told me their stories about their family basset and how much joy it brought them, and knew I wanted to be more involved. All puppies are around children and will be well socialized and kept indoors.
