We are the only breeder that raises this unique and special breed, that we simply named, "Bassetdoodles".

 

We have discovered over the past couple years that  other breeders are starting to call their cross breeds, "Bassetdoodles" to try and emulate our lines.  Some have used the info from our site in an effort to re-create the Uptown Bassetdoodle.  Do not be fooled, only Uptown Dogs creats the unique combination that is our Uptown Bassetdoodle.  We started out breeding many years ago with the Basset Hound. After countless health issues with our dogs, we decided we needed to look into cross breeding. Our goal is to raise healthy, intelligent, well socialized puppies, that will be an active part of their family's lives. With theses goals in mind, we discovered the Schnoodle. After many healthy litters of Schnoodles, we started thinking again about the requests for a low to non-shedding hound we have received over the years. That brought us back to our Bassets.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Bassetdoodle Beginnings:

The first litter was a trial litter, as we wanted to see how the general public would respond to this unique doodle. The response was amazing, and we have continued to receive wonderful updates about the first litter, as well as the others since.

Now our Bassetdoodle waiting lists are filling as quickly as our Schnoodle waiting lists, as more people meet our special Bassetdoodles in person. They make a great impression with their sweet Basset temperaments and personality unique to this specail cross!

 

After having a few litters of our initial F1 cross, we discovered the shedding was still an issue with most colors.  Then I went back to the drawing board to consider the positive effects of an F1B cross.  Our first F1B litter was much less shedding, and  appeared more houndlike than the F1.  Today, at Uptown Dogs, We are now successfully breeding multi-gen Bassetdoodles and have been able to advance forward from the F1 cross.  You will find Boxier builds and squarer faces, more of the Basset Stature, but the nice Bassetdoodle coat everyone is drawn to.  Within our litters, we have the wirey coats to the more wavy soft coats.  Typically the solid colors have the softer coats.  Our Multi-gen Bassetdoodles are also very intelligent with great personality.  Everyone has reported back that their pups are doing great in the Kindergarten classes, friendly and easy going at Doggy Daycares, and their vets are all very impressed with the quality and health of their puppy. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 The puppies are very healthy, and are ready to go at 8 weeks.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Pure bred Bassets are very heavy shedders. The coat of the Bassetdoodle is coming in as either low/med shed or non-shed. The low shedding coat is much less than that of the Basset Hound. We are told the shedding coats are shedding at about 2 brush-fulls after bath-time as opposed to 8+ brush-fulls of the Basset. This is a huge improvement! We are also hearing back that the Doodles do not have the doggy odor, drooling, or stinky ears associated with the Basset Hound. These are what we feel to be huge improvements.

 

We continue to take information from our Bassetdoodle families about their dog's coat types. At this time half of the White and Red coated dogs have a low shedding coat, while the other half have non shedding. The solid Brown or Red coated dogs have both been non shedding, and the Tri's are also of both coat types.  Our F1B litters are being reported to be non-shedding to very light shedders!

The Uptown Dogs Bassetdoodle is a unique cross breed created exclusively by Uptown Dogs in Wa. 

With the lovely disposition of the Basset, the alertness and non-shedding coats of the Poodle, the Bassetdoodle is a lively companion. Our families are reporting back that their Bassetdoodles are alert, intelligent, easy to train, extremely gentle and sweet natured--all wonderful traits for families with small children and other animals. We have heard from several families that these dogs also love to perform tricks! They have a clown-like personality and love to perform for their families. They are smaller than the Basset Hound, the size of the full grown Bassetdoodles to be 23-35 lbs.

 

 

The coats of the Bassetdoodles is slightly coarse and either wavy or straight. Truly a combination of Poodle and Basset. Their coats shed lightly as puppies, and many families are reporting back that the adult coat is little to no shed. They are a mellow puppy, playful and alert, but also more docile than most puppies. A very sweet disposition.

 

We are also hearing that the puppies are very easy to train with consistent training. One family told us that her puppy was the head of the class in her puppy kindergarten, and others have reported back that their puppies were very easy to housebreak.

 

The Bassetdoodle is a friendly, social, loving breed. They are wonderful with children and other animals, they have great energy, but not hyperactive. A great family dog! The Bassetdoodle is also known (like their Schnoodle siblings!) to perform the famous "Doodle 500" or Doodle Zoom", wherein they run quickly around the house at high speed! It is so funny to watch, and our families enjoy seeing their Doodle get excited. A nice daily walk or round of fetch will keep your Doodle exercised and easily calm them.

 

If you are looking for an easy going, family friendly breed that is easily trained and excels at agility sports, you might consider one of our Bassetdoodles for your family!
