Larry came to us in the fall of 2000. He had many homes before ours. He was born June 25, 1996. He died of cancer May 1, 2009. Larry was an unusual basset hound. He was misunderstood by most who did not know him. He had the best howl of all time. It was deep and loud. When he barked his front paws would leave the ground. He loved his evening walk. He would bark and bark until he had his walk each night. It broke our hearts as he got old and could no longer take his evening stroll. He loved his basset brothers, Dexter and Butch, but always let them know he was in charge. He enjoyed playing with his new smaller wiener dog brother, Sniper. Larry always wanted to know what was going on around him. He would sit in front of the window or out on the deck for hours just watching. Larry was "King" at the forth Basset Blast, he also won second most freckles and best howl at other basset blasts. He loved going to "The Blast", it will not be the same without him. Our family feels blessed to have had Larry be apart of our lives. He was unique, entertaining and special. He will be forever missed.
