We are a family owned kennel that loves basset hounds. We began raising bassets in 1999 when we purchased a male and female for pets. They produced a litter of 5 and the phone rang nonstop. So we got two more females and slowly expanded. Before long we had acres of yard dedicated to our bassets. We truly love animals so taking care of them isn't a chore. It's what we enjoy. If you've been here before, then you already knew that. If you haven't been here before, then you'll know when you see it for yourself.
All of our bassets are AKC registered. Thus, we are annually inspected by AKC to check for accurate & thorough record keeping, clean water & food setups, and to promote healthy living for our dogs by providing large fenced in lots for them to get exercise. Our puppies come with FULL AKC registration and we can microchip your puppy here if you choose to have it done. We've advertised via several websites, etc. over the years but word of mouth has been the best advertising by far. Our clients have given us wonderful feedback and we are grateful for this. Many of our clients are repeat buyers, whether it be a month apart or years in between. Either way, we're thankful they chose Buck's Bassets (formerly Buck's Bullies & Bassets) as their basset hound puppy provider.
We were known as Buck's Bullies & Bassets until 2018 when "Buck" was stricken with cancer and passed suddenly. While we no longer raise English Bulldogs, we are glad that the kennel has carried on his legacy. He would be very proud of the reputation that his work has turned out. We miss him and do our best to carry out his vision for raising the best bassets we can.
We live in a remote small town in Mammoth Cave, KY. There isn't a single red light in our entire county of Edmonson. We live between Nolin Lake State Park and Mammoth Cave National Park. It's a small slice of paradise if you choose to live in the middle of nowhere. And we love it.
