Six Week Evaluation - MrPibb

MrPibb is a fine example of a chestnut brown and white, but still tri-colored, Basset Hound. His  head shape, ears (placement length, and shape) are excellent.  His stance, bone thickness and jaw set are  perfect. His wide and highly domed head is covered with ample loose skin. His body is well muscled  body and covered wonderfully in a symmetrically colored fur. He is careful, reserved, and loves to stay in familiar places. He is also a bit stubborn and may argue with his people as he grows.

MrPibb receives full marks when compared to the AKC standard and the one full point for beauty. This is a fine example of the American Basset Hound and might be bred to improve the breed, providing that rights to breed him are secured in advance. If paired with the right female he may sire extraordinary pups.

Six of six possible points does not a best of show winner make, but with the right handling he might prove better than he exhibits today. He is a high quality Basset Hound pup and exhibits many of the traits one might find in a field dog.
